The Ultimate Queen of Hip-Pop 5

What a fantastic album, Namie at her best. This is Namie's first album that she completely transformed herself into a R&B/Hip-Hop artist and she had definitely surpassed the standards.

From the start of the album you're just sucked into it. The opening track "Queen of Hip-Pop" just has to be the best Namie song ever, I love it to pieces just puts you in the mood for the whole album straight away. Then you've got the delicious "WANT ME, WANT ME", followed by the hippy "WoWa" and the album just flows through. Though "ALL FOR YOU" feels a bit out of place being the only ballad on the album its still a beautiful song.

I would advise any J-Pop fan to buy this album, in fact any music fan in the world!

Queen Namie 5

I've bought all of her albums and I can say this is her best. Namie Amuro is great because her songs are never the same like many other singers. If you don't know Namie's music, try to listen this album.
By Massimiliano @ITALY (2007/04/22)

Perfect! 5

This album makes me wordless! It's just SO good! All of the songs are very remarkable, even those which weren't released as singles, like "My Darling". It's a very fun CD, if you like to dance, you should totally buy it!
By Bruna @BRAZIL (2007/03/11)

Go Namie! Work it!! 5

WOW! or should I say WOWA! This has to be the BEST album Namie has ever done. She kicks ass!! Every song on here is excellent. It's very catchy, and moving from track to track, the songs kinda flow together, but have a unique sound of their own. Her beautiful, earthy, voice has improved dramatically, and her STYLE is so much better than when she debuted. If only she would release singles and albums with an extra DVD (like beautiful AYU), but i guess that would take away from her own style:-( YOU MUST BUY THIS C.D. (if you like hip hop and r&b)
By Jon-E @UNITED STATES (2006/06/01)

I enjoy all of Namie's albums, but this one is definately my favorite. The songs all fit together perfectly, and almost every track makes you want to get up and dance! I'd say this CD proves Namie is indeed the Queen of Hip-Pop!
