I can honestly say this is a good debut. It's hard to believe that she was only 14 years-old when she released this good debut. I think she has a really good voice. She sounds like she's in her 20's not in her teens. I really can't say any bad things about this album. I think this album should have gotten more promotion so that it could have gotten a greater success. My favorite songs off of this album are: 1. "No 1/2 Steppin'" 2. "Spend Some Time With Me" 3. "He's So Cute" 4. "I'll Bet She's Got A Boyfriend" 5. "The Way You Love Me" (This song should have made her a star). Anyway I really enjoyed this album. It will go down as one of the greatest albums to come out in the 1980's.

I remembered when Shanice's first album came out. I still like it to this day. I liked "Can You Dance", but I played the very funky "No 1/2 Steppin" the most. That had a very funky groove to it and could have challenged any of Janet Jackson's "Control" album hits! I loved "I Love" and how she held that note for some 15-20 seconds on it. This was a good first effort for her, she sounded strong vocally, they were smart to keep it to her fun teen image, and it set the tone for her later albums on Motown.

Shanice Wilson is one of the best young artist out there,well,I wouldn't say she just started singing yesterday,because she's been doing her thing since she was real young.If you were to ask me,what is one of the best albums to buy,I would say"Shanice,Shanice,Shanice"!You Know the young,beautiful lady who had the hit"I Love Your Smile"out in 1994.Well,the only thing I can say now,is check her knew album out and you will enjoy it!

Shanice Wilson has to be one of the most talented singers of all time, right next to Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera. But, have you ever seen Mariah or Christina sing like Shanice? Here's my review on the album.

1.) I Think I Love You: Great, funky song to start off the album. It's fun to dance to and Shanice sounds so amazing.
2.) No 1\2 Steppin: Another fun song to dance to. Shanice's vocals sound absolutely strong and wonderful.
3.) [Baby Tell Me] Can You Dance: One of my favorite songs off this album.
It's so amazing and also, so very 80's!
4.) Spend Some Time With Me: Another cool funky song to dance to.
5.) He's So Cute: Another fun, cool, funky song to dance to. It's another one of my favorite songs on this album.
6.) I'll Bet She's Got a Boyfriend: I love this song. It sounds so funky and it's cool to dance to.
7.) Do I Know You: This one of the three ballads on the album. It's so sweet and romantic. Shanice is so great at singing ballads because you
can hear her wonderful voice.
8.) Just a Game: I love this song!! It's so amazing and Shanice sounds absolutely AMAZING!! OMG, this song is awesome!
9.) The Way You Love Me: The last song on the album. It's so sweet and sensual. Great song to end the album.

Shanice is so amazing and I fully recommend this cd to everyone.

With 'Discovery', Shanice had a few dance hits like 'No 1/2 Steppin' & 'Tell Me Can You Dance', (and a few other filler dud tracks!), but I really enjoyed her slow jams, where she SANG like it was no tomorrow. Songs like 'Do I Know You ?', 'Just A Game', and 'The Way You Love Me' still sound fresh TODAY, and are great illustrations of Shanice's awesome talents. Also, if you own 'Discovery', consider remastering it by adding Shanice's classic duet with Kiara from 1988 titled 'This Time'. I'm suprised the record company didn't do this already, but que sera sera!!

This is shanice version of janet's control cd(they were friends at the time), it's umistakable. The uptempo songs are so funky and full of attitude. Shanice obviously has a great voice the ballads are too vapid & old for her..even though "the way you love me" is a great song with killer melodies
