Editorial Reviews

After the huge success of her critically acclaimed album "Loose" which allowed her to be the number 1 artist in global sales in 2007, Nelly decides to do her musical dream of making her first full Spanish language album.

She had done many successful collaborations with artists all over the world in all different genres, but the collaborations with the Latin artists left her with this huge desire of expressing herself in this language, and that is how this new album was born.

"Mi Plan" (My plan) is Nelly's 4th studio album which reflects once again her artistry, diversity and the uniqueness of everything which she writes. The album, as all her albums, is written and co-produced by her in collaboration with top writers and producers, as well as young new talent she believes in. She doesn't feel this is a "Latin Album", she says that this is just her soul speaking in Spanish, as all her albums "just music for the world". Music is a universal language and in this album she has brought the world together, working with musicians, writers and producers from all over the globe.

The album is filled with fresh, enthusiastic, fun, freeing, unique, strong and passionate songs that reflect the great moment that Nelly is currently experiencing.

The first single of this album, "Manos al Aire" (Hands in the air or I surrender), is a mid-tempo song that brings you in faster than you can understand to what she is trying to tell her loved one. The tip of an iceberg that will outlive the barrier of language, culture and time!

I got this yesterday and I'm hooked. It's beautiful all over. There are some fillers here and there that are forgettable, but the good songs in this album wraps your heart around. "Como lluvia" with musical genius Juan Luis Guerra is breathtaking. "Silencio" with Josh Groban is equally enthralling. And of course "Manos al aire" is also a very good song. It's a great album. I haven't bought music in a long time, and I did this time because the people she collaborated with are of immense quality. For those who say that comment on her weak voice, I partially agree, but really all you need is someone who stays in keys and delivers an emotional connection through the songs. Her voice seems to sound a bit more nasal because it's an acoustically driven album instead of the big boom-pow of her previous productions. Overall, I think the Latin community will really like this. Bravo Nelly!

From hip hop to folk to Latin music and everything in between, Nelly excels at everything she does and never loses her passion and drive. This album is filled with amazing Spanish lyrics and incredible pop production with a latin twist. It's accessible, catchy and very easy listening. No matter what direction she chooses to go with her music, her plan never fails! Looking forward to whatever comes next from Nelly!

I was a lukewarm Nelly Fan during her I'm Like a Bird and Folklore era, but when I bought Loose I was hooked. It was a fun album yet with some sad moments that really made you feel the words and the music. Overall an excellent pop album. This album is sooo good and coherent-the stories the songs tell are all interrelated, I love the guest stars and I really like this overall from track 1 to 12! If you're expecting Loose 2 in Spanish its not but what it is-is good! I'm glad she decided to do something different and not just give us a loose 2!
