Artist:
Allison Iraheta
Review:
This magenta-haired American Idol veteran swaggers like
a teenage Pink on her debut: Her overlooked single "Friday I'll Be
Over U" is Scandinavian-designed punk-pop perfection, and "Robot
Love" turns Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll Part 2" riff into
something fresh. But on ballads like "Scars," Iraheta sounds so
much like Pink that it's distracting. More disturbing are some of
the lyrics: "Beat Me Up" takes the S&M theme of Britney's
"...Baby One More Time" into domestic-violence territory.
