The Greatest!, September 13, 2006
1. Don't Forget About Us- (A+) Oh so now Mariah finally gets put on a NOW complication. This songs the greatest, beter than "We Belong Together," because it doesn't sample anything. (#1)
2. Stickwitu- (A+) Sweetest most beautiful song, great rythmn too. (#5)
3. Grillz- (A+) The best rap song ever, and that means a lot since I hate rap music. (#1)
4. Run It!- (A) Great dancable song, even though Chris's voice can get on your nerves. (#1)
5. My Humps- (A) Great song, but not as good as "Don't Phunk With my Heart." Fergie can get annoying though. (#3)
6. If It's Lovin' That You Want- (A+) Beautiful Carribean style song, very fun. (#36)
7. Fresh Azimiz- (A-) Another great rap song. (#23)
8.Lean Wit It, Rock Wit It- (C) Okay, kinda dry. (#7)
9. Stay Fly- (A-) Brillantly Done rap song. (I think somewhere in the 10's)
10. I'm Sprung- (C+) Kinda cool, but still dry and annoying. (Somewhere in the 10's)
11. One Wish- (B+) Pretty song, pretty good vocals too. ( Somewhere in the 10's)
12. Because of You- (A+) Beautiful, kinda sad, great music and vocals and lyrics. (#7)
13. Unwritten- (A+) Great well-written, beautiful vocals and music. (#5)
14. Photograph- (A) Great song, great lyrics and music. (#2)
15. Dirty Little Secret- (A-) It's a fun rock track. (#8)
16. Dance, Dance- (A-) Great rock rock, but a little annoying. (#9)
17. Who I Am Hates Who I've Been- (A) Brillant rock song, love the music. (#58)
18. Dare- (A+) Funky electro garage song, way better than "Feel Good Inc," despite its low charting position. (#87 I think!)
19. Honky Tonk Badonkadonk- (C) Kinda cool beat for a country song, bad lyrics though, and mediocre vocals. (#33 I think!)
20. Everytime We Touch- (A+) Uses the chorus from a Scottish song of the same name. Brillantly done dance-trance track. The dance anthem of 2006. (#10)

One of the better Nows, April 7, 2006
Now 21 has a broad variety of music. This is probably the most diverse of all the Now CDs. Mariah Carey shows her amazing vocals in the chart topping R&B hit, Don't Forget About Us. This song is fantastic, and it fits Mariah perfectly. Stickwitu by the Pussycat Dolls has a catchy melody, and it's very enjoyable to listen to. Nelly's Grillz is a fun song to rap along to, even if youre not a rap fan. Chris Brown brings us to the dance floor with his number one hit, Run It! Chris is a good singer for a 16 year-old kid. The Black Eyed Peas hit, My Humps seems to be one of the weaker songs on the album, and some people might find the lyrics offensive. Rihanna's fun song If It's Lovin That You Want, gets people of all ages to sing along. Bow Wow's Fresh Azimiz is enjoyable for a while, but after two or three times of listening to it, it gets old. Dem Franchize Boyz's Lean Wit It, Rock Wit It has a nice beat, but it's very good overall. This is probably the worst song on the album. Stay Fly is not unique, and it's very similar to most rap songs already released. T-Pain has an amazing singing voice in comparision to his speaking voice. I think it would be better if he goes around singing all the time instead of talking. His vocals are good, but they aren't great. Ray J. could be the next Usher. His One Wish, has good vocals, and a good melody. This is a song you will want to listen to mosre than a few times. Kelly Clarkson has always been an outstanding artist. Because Of You is an absolutely flawless performance, and Kelly singing it is stunning. This is by far the best song on the album. Natasha Bedingfield has a beautiful and distinct voice. Unwritten is a very catchy song, and most Natasha does a good job with it. Nickelback and All American Rejects both give good performaces with their songs Photograph and Dirty Little Secret. Fall Out Boy singing Dance, Dance, is fun to listen to, but like Bow Wow's song, this one gets old after a while. I am new to Relient K, and what I have heard from them so far, I liked, and Who I Am Hates Who I've Been confirms it. Dare by The Gorillaz is not a great song, but it's fun to listen to. Honkey Tonk Bodonkadonk may be offensive to women, and it isn't that good of a song either. At least it brings diversity to the album with a country song, but if I had to choose between My Humps and this song for which is better, I would choose My Humps. Cascada is a great singer, and this song is one the few songs that get stuck into your head easily, and you'd be happy about it. Although there are some songs that aren't so good, Ray J., Chris, Nickelback, All American Rejects, Relient K, Pussycat Dolls, Cascada, Natasha, Mariah, and Kelly definitely make this album worth buying.

Great, October 8, 2006
A Kid's Review
This CD is not bad. When I first played a Marriah Carey song came on so I kind of regretted buying the CD. As the CD moved on it started to get better because a rather dancy song came on by the "The Pussycat Dolls" sang a song called "Stickiwu" came on. Other songs such as "Dirty Little Secret" by "The All American Rejects" and "Unwritten" by Natasha Beddingfield were good too. Nickleback was a little rusty throated on "Photograph" because the lead singers voice is scrachty. "Dare" by "Gorrilaz" had a great tune so over all I give Now 21 an 8 1/2. Bottom line is this is a good CD and if you wanna buy it you go for it!
