Though not every track is a gem, The Dutchess reaches further than most albums by contemporary divas, who often seem content to turn out one or two killer singles accompanied by an album's worth of padding. Fergie tries hard to be all things to all (pop-loving) people — and much of the time, she succeeds.

The former child star's solo debut is exactly as gratingly infectious as you might expect, from the profanity-laden first single, "London Bridge"--basically a mashup of Kelis' "Milkshake" and Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl"--on down.

The Dutchess is a shameless solo debut full of Eighties-style electro bangers, mostly produced by the Peas' Will.i.am, though Atlanta mogul Polow Da Don steals the show on "London Bridge" and "Glamorous."

The album too often seems to be striving to display diversity at the expense of artistry.

Fergie was elevated to diva status in the early 2000s, when the former child actress-turned-aspiring singer ditched her teen dance-pop trio Wild Orchid for the lightweight rap group. Working here with bandmate will.i.am, Fergie has created a shallow, fleeting collection of styles, from standout "Fergalicious" and "London Bridge" booty-shakers to syrupy inspirational ballads like "Finally."

Fergie's solo debut -- mostly produced by bandmate will.i.am -- picks up right where My Humps left off, with more sample-fueled, booty-whomping hip-hop singles like Fergalicious and the vaguely sleazy London Bridge.

This is a pretty decent album since it explains who Stacy Ferguson is. People may just listen and say another pop album. But its actually a explaination of her life like tracks losing my ground and glamours. And tranks thay show her party side like london brige and fergalicious |

So the album is not what everyone expected. The cd overall is great and it might take time or it might not, but this cd is good. I find it very ironic that people feel that way when you got people using the same beats in hip hop and switching up the harmony in it. Fergie is different and thats what make her good becauase I get tired of snapping my fingers and leaning & rocking. It had great potential and I think its proficient that we all appreciate what these things celebs do for our entertainment. Fergie is great and she won't stop.....MUCH LOVE FERGIE!!! |

Clumsy is probably the song that caught me. The tetris sounds are so much better than the bass you would hear on other songs. Its also a very explanatory song on luvv. I luv all the songs and they are all combined. You have to listen to them in order to get the effect. Well thats what i did. But then again i just luvv all the songs. lol. LUVV YOU FERGIE.. |

I believe that Fergie is the epitemy of the modern world. You don't have to have sleazy lyrics and profanity in your music, like popular names like "The Fray" and "Snow Patrol" have shown. I have to admit that her songs are very catchy. |

Wild! Fun! FERGALICIOUS!!! Beautiful, deep songs like Big Girls Don't Cry, Losing My Ground and Glamorous show Fergie's "soft" and "peaceful" side and songs like Fergalicious, London Bridge and Clumsy show Stacy's crazy and wild side (and are also HUGE hits on charts nationwide)and say, hey, this girl loves to have fun! The songs would be better without the profane language. Great debut album Fergie. Keep up the hits!!! I don't know one person who don't sing along to her songs on the radio! |

does anyone not realize that she's trying to be like Gwen stefani! I love Gwen Stefani because she was different Fergie is a gwen wannabe reject!! I heard the song Glamorous I was so mad because the song sounds exactly like one of Gwen Stefani's song, the beat and the part that Ludacris is rapping is the same exact words as in the Gwen Stefani song off of her previous album. you gotta be kidding me when did talent mean that you copied another artist exactly how is that talent that's copying so I think she sucks and lack creativity!!!

this is handsdown the worst album i have ever heard. Not even features like wil.i.am and ludacris can save this album. The only reason this album has a above average rating is because all these 12, 13 year old girls rated it thr album ten out of ten. Simply bad, you should of stayed with the black eyed peas fergie. |

This is for AZAM and BIG!!! I have played Fergie's remarkable new album over and over again and i love it! Fergie is NOT A SKANK OR A HO, that's mainly the media trying to make her look like something she's not. Reading your comments, it sounds like you've never even heard the album. If you really listen to all of her songs you'll know she has put an amazing performance on. Fergie's voice sounds wonderful and you can really tell she has put loads of effort into her new album! I especially love 'GLAMOROUS' because she is sending a clear message across. Maybe someday you'll appreciate what she has done. I am an 11 year old, very opinionated girl!!! I really do hope you read this!

I agree that you shouldn't have been so self centered to go solo just to copy other people. You deffinately had more of the good eyes kept on you in Black Eyed Peas as opposed to now you have more of the are you kidding me eyes on you. Fergelicious is a TOTAL rip off of Bootylicious but have to acknowledge that if that's what you really want. What she lacks in vocal talent, she makes up for with cartwheels, a tough juggling act, personality and provocitiveness which is very Brittney Spears of her but like I said if that's how you want to do it, it's your choice. We tell people all the time that they should be who they want and then chastize them for doing so. You have my thoughts but also I am here to say I do like some of the songs but lyrically, you can do better but hey you can only go up from here. |

If fergalicious is a rip off of bootylicious then bootylicious is also a rip off of stevie nicks as well. Who is now being original in the music buiseness anyway ? Nowadays everyone copies everyone. Besides Gwen has sold out. The music is not the same anymore.She also samples so she is not that original anymore. So I say Fergie Is donig o.k. |

Fergie has done a great job with this album. And I thought Fergalicious was the only popular one, the next day it was London Bridge, the next day Glamorous, and the next day Big Girls don't cry!! She keeps getting better and better! |
