 Might Be Jenny's Best Work Jan 16, 2009
J-Lo is a freaking un-real album. It explodes right out of the gate with "Love Don't Cost A Thing" and then continues the high energy right through with "I'm Real" and "Play" all three of which are hits along with "Ain't It Funny" and the "I'm Real (Murder Remix)". But the rest of the album is bumpin' as well with great songs like "Walking On Sunshine" and "Carino". This album has plenty of versatility, when listening one will find gems like the very aching and beautiful ballad "Secretly". Then there are quite sensual moments as well with the ultimately sexy "Come Over". Although I have not gone through every song, trust me this music is brilliant from beginning to end.
A Masterpiece. Perhap's Jenny's best work.
 3 1/2 stars for this triple threat's sophmore album (She dances, she sings, she acts, oh, and perfume and clothing, too!) May 18, 2008
I used to listen to Jennifer Lopez's debut album, "On the 6" all of the time. As soon as I popped in "J. Lo", I immediately noticed a slight improvement in her singing voice. I do not know if she was taking lots of vocal lessons or just matured a lot as a woman during that time, but it is easy to tell that she sounds better when she sings. This album is similar to her debut because there is a huge Latin aura surrounding this album; that is something that I always enjoyed with her albums because since I like R&B, I don't get a chance to hear much Latin music. Of course there is plenty of the pop/R&B sound on this album, but the Latin sound definitely gives her album distinction to other pop artists.
Many of the songs from this album were released to radio. I can remember hearing "I'm Real", I'm Real Remix", "Love Don't Cost a Thing", "Play" and "I'm Gonna Be Alright." All of these numbers help to make this album a decent offering by the triple threat named Jennifer Lynn Lopez. "Love Don't Cost a Thing" and "I'm Gonna Be Alright" both sound a tad like Lopez's first ever song, "If You Had My Love." Why? Because they are all mid-tempo and contain much guitar. Lyrically, this album never gets too profound, but "I'm Real", "Love Don't Cost a Thing" and the beautiful "Secretly" have lyrics that are a little deep. As far as the production is concerned, it is good; there is lots of guitar and some neat drum arrangements found here. "Dame" and "Corino" are definitely highlights.
Add this album to your collection because it can and will set many different atmospheres. You will find yourself dancing, relaxing and/or setting a sexy mood with your object of affection all while "J. Lo" plays.

 It's ok. Dec 12, 2007
Yah I liked it, but it's not the greatest album ever. I did like "Aint It Funny", "Love Don't Cost a Thing," and other songs. Well that's all I have to say.

 just like another paula abdul Jan 08, 2007
her career is so similar to paula abdul it's not even funny! Both started out dancing. Paula worked with janet jackson in the mid 80's and appeared in her videos, J LO worked with janet in the mid 90's and appeared in a video of hers. Paula Abdul tried her hand at music in the late 80's as a dance-diva and J LO did the same thing in the late 90's. Both of their debut albums Forever Your Girl and On the 6 sold well, and better than their follow up albums. Early 1991, Paula Abdul released Spellbound and early 2001 J LO released J LO. Both of them had strong first singles and their albums fell off the charts pretty fast although both managed to reach 3 million(instead of 8 million and 5 million like their debuts) and have a lot of hits from their albums. Let's not forget to mention that paula briefly did acting as well and J LO is also an actress. This Is Me Again didn't make a dent in the charts and Rebirth was the final nail in the coffin in 2005, just like paula's Head Over Heels. The first single from their final albums both had good videos(My Love Is For Real & Get Right) but by then it was too late and the public already had enough of them. I expect to see J LO release a compilation album by 2010 and appearing as a host or something 10 years from now.

A Great Unique Voice, Great Looks And She Can Act TOO! Oct 15, 2006
I remember seeing the video clip of JLo's song "Ain't It Funny" and as I recall it set my middle aged heart racing which is a new experience for me considering what they usually show on EMPTY VEE these days. And if you don't like the music this CD is worth buying for the cover photo alone.Ms. Lopez's voice is strong and soars like an eagle on a few of the tracks.PLus next to Catherine Mary Stewart JLO is my favourite actress.This is one very talented lady who has graciously endured all of the criticism levelled against her in recent years and she is still around to prove them all wrong.Jennifer is HOT and if I had lived "down on the block" a few years ago I would have asked her for a date! Naturally 5 stars for this album.
