Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 "Down To Earth" is a bit of a downer

I was enthralled by Jem ever since she released her debut album, "Finally Woken" in 2004. I had her album in rotation constantly. Fast forward four years and she returns with "Down To Earth", an album that's her "It Was Written", an album that is a complete 180 from what she was previously known for. Lyrically, she has matured and has shown so on the songs. And like Nas' "It Was Written", the problem isn't the artist, it's the production.
Among the contributors are Jeff Bass (best known for his work with Eminem), Lester Mendez (best known for his work with Shakira), and Greg Kurstin of The Bird And The Bee. The end result is that it sounds so polished and so slick, it was as if she was making a desperate attempt to become a pop star. While I gave this album a chance and I really wanted to like it, overall it was decent, at best. She has some good songs on here like "I Want You To...", the music industry lament "I Always Knew", and "You Will Make It", her song dedicated to the late Proof of D-12. It's not a bad album, but it's not a great one, either. |

| And this CD shows it. It is awful, something almost on the level of Christina Aguilera. Jem's first CD was great. Also, some of these CDs are copy protect when trying to rip it to itunes. |
