5.0 out of 5 stars For those of you who didn't believe... ROLL UP YA SLEEVES!!!, July 29, 2004

By	Jessica (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews

LaToya Jackson is hands-down the most underrated artist of ALL TIME!!! It's almost criminal how under-appreciated, and even disrespected she is. But the truth is, LaToya is an amazing singer, who displays overwhelming power and emotion. I feel very fortunate to be able to appreciate her and her amazing music. You're Gonna Get Rocked is among her finest recordings to date. The album's title track is nothing short of amazing, she just displays so much attitude!!! Every song here is a gem. There is not one bad, or even mediocre track here. If you're new to LaToya, this is an excellent place to start, and it will have you rushing out to find all of her recordings in no time!

2.0 out of 5 stars La Toya: People had this image of the Jacksons as the perfect American family and I destroyed that image, May 16, 2008

By	J. Abercrombi (Honolulu) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I got this from one of those dollar stores, years and years ago. But I never could get into this cassette. I've always loved La Toya because she is so dramatic and theatrical and beautiful but frankly her music isn't very enjoyable or entertaining. All of these songs on this album sound very amateurish and almost have an underground quality to them; it almost sounds like 1 big song. I also have her country CD which falls in the so bad it's funny category. IMO La Toya should write a book, because that's where her talents are; she's a great story-teller. But from what I understand, her family put a stop to all the nonsense about 10 years ago when they "welcomed her back into the family." Since then, La Toya has recanted all of her outrageous and completely ludicrous statements. I am happy that she reconciled with her mother and father. Because even during all those years when La Toya went on coast-to-coast TV and said such hateful things about them you could always see that she was hurting and still really wanted a relationship with them. And I always think it's so funny when people criticize La Toya now for defending her brother. God forbid, if my brother or sister was ever accused of a horrible crime, I would sooner cut off my hand than say disparaging things about them because that's my family. So I can totally understand where she is coming from now. At least no one can ever say La Toya used Michael or Janet to advance her musical career.

5.0 out of 5 stars There You Just Got Rocked, By La Toya, April 10, 2006

By	Jurai's Heir "Tenchi Masaki" (Denham Springs, LA, USA) - See all my reviews

I've been having this La Toya Jackson album for a long time now & never wrote a review about it. It's great, the music is very hip & very 80s Pop. I wish for La Toya it was a big hit, but this album was not. This album contains what the 80s was all about, & that was to dance and have a great time. Also the whole album contains highlights, but the real ones are "You're Gonna Get Rocked" which has a fun R&B rhythm, "Such A Wicked Love", which is my favorite on here, "Just Say No" which was one of the 80s offical anti-drug songs, "(Tell Me) She Means Nothing To You" - my second favorite, has a good rhythm which changes sometimes thoughout the song. Give it a try, it's very fun to dance to & is very similar to Janet's "Control" album.
