If you thought Black Eyed Pea-sized bites of Fergie might be all you could handle--that a full plate of Fergie is possibly too much for any discerning musical palate--The Dutchess might change your mind. For here the lumpen lady throws caution to the wind and threads her pop needle with an ambitious ribbon of yet-to-be-conquered genres: reggae and ska on "Mary Jane Shoes," with Rita Marley; vintage soul on "Here I Come"; '80s hip-hop on "Fergalicious"; and sophisticated R&B on the John Legend-assisted "Finally." It's a tremendous and unpredictable expenditure of effort that mostly pays off--echoes of more talented vocalists like Pink, Beyoncé, and Christina Aguilera poke through in places. But while unbridled messing about can pay handsome artistic dividends (here, the guitar-propelled rock-like track "Big Girls Don't Cry" coughs them up), ultimately it's when Fergie's at her Peas-iest that she's most lovable; cases in point are the raunchily irresistible "London Bridge," which earned every week of its chart-topping success, and the will.i.am-assisted "Clumsy," a girl-group-styled bump-a-thon that showcases Fergie's coolest and most distinctive asset--her personality--to winning effect. --Tammy La Gorce

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - very upbeat
i like to listen to this while i'm cleaning. it's fun and lyrically it's alright.
Rating: - The girl is amazing - and inspirational to women
I bought this CD for two songs. Fergalicious and Big Girls Don't Cry and ended up loving the whole album. Fergie really has an amazing voice and is so hot she makes me have a "girl crush" on her. When I need a pick me up song to work out to I always enjoy this CD and I think every girl should own a copy.
Rating:  - Good party music
I believe this CD is great to listen to if you want to be put in a great mood. I have fun dancing and singing along but I would warn buyers not to buy this for younger listeners because some the lyrics are risque. I also warn buyers that this is not a CD you buy for content value since Fergie's singing skills and lyrics are not the best, it is just a CD with good beats to dance to.
Rating:  - Love it!
I love this CD! this is one of my favorite CDs and it's one I don't 'have to' be in the mood for, I can listen to it anytime.
