Review :
Having lost its way a little in a neutered limbo populated with a volley of faux-chanteuses who appeared post-{$Britney}, it's refreshing to find {\contemporary R&B} beginning to distance itself from the whiter-than-white, squeaky-clean {\soul} lite in favor of getting back to the business of boot-knocking. Twenty-two-year-old {$Sarah Connor} has been touted as something of an {$Aguilera}-beater by {@Sony}, with her debut, {^Green Eyed Soul}, laying down plenty of comparatively explicit lyrical slap and tickle. Quick to realize a good thing when they have it, the label have unleashed this sophomore outing less than a year after the release of its predecessor. Despite something of a menacing Teutonic flavor which her German inflection lends to the pillow talk unwisely scattered amongst the track listing, this slightly disturbing quality thankfully disappears once she starts singing -- with her unarguably powerful voice soaring above the rock-solid production of sometime-{$Backstreet Boys} desk man {$Bulent Aris}. As is par for the course with the genre, ill-advised {\ballads} handicap an album which didn't realistically require 17 tracks, but these slight indiscretions are unlikely to put off fans baying for a second album of {$Connor}'s slick {\pop}. ~ Kingsley Marshall, All Music Guide
