Predictably Unpredictable, A Brilliant Listen! October 10, 2009 A. Cuthbertson (U.K) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have all of Shakira's albums, being a big fan, and I loved the She Wolf single as soon as I heard it. I had high expectations of this album, and I was not let down. This is definately Shakira's most comfortable English album, and is the biggest change in direction for her. Most of the album consists of quirky electropop, like 'Men In This Town' which is an electro/rock stomper full of energy, and the upcoming single 'Did It Again'. But obviously this is Shakira, and when she writes songs of this genre, they aren't nearly as uninspired and monotonous as efforts by recent electropop bummers like La Roux and Little Boots. Songs like 'Why Wait' and 'Good Stuff' incorperate familiar Shaki-esque latin tinges, the latter having one of the sexiest synth/belly dance combos ever. Even the originally RB 'Long Time' has developed a tribal drum beat and a brilliant surprise bridge that I won't spoil. 'Mon Amour' is my personal favourite, going back to her rock roots, and is insanely catchy. 'Spy' with Wyclef is another favourite, and is very retro disco, going hand in hand with the title single.
br /The album is very upbeat and danceable, the only real mellow moment here being 'Gypsy' which is a bit country. And still very good.
br /All in all a very good, consistent, high energy album. I highly recommend it.
A great electro album from a Rock/Latin Pop singer! October 12, 2009 Ulla V. Pedersen 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Shakira really masters electropop on this album, even though she is a Rock/Pop singer! The best songs on the album, in my opinion, is Men In This Town, Mon Amour, Gypsy, Good Stuff and Why Wait, all very different. The album takes a lot of influence from cultural music, which makes it break boundaries in a seductive way. She Wolf is not Shakira's best album, but definetely a Shakira album!
br /
br /Conclusion:
br /+ She Wolf is very cohesive, every song is different, but the songs all go together as one album.
br /+ The lyrics are smart, passionate and really catchy.
br /+ Every song is so catchy and brilliant, they could all be selected as singles.
br /- The album can feel a bit too short at times, only one song reaches four minutes.
br /
br /So five stars, but close to four stars.

Brilliant - but only 10 tracks? October 15, 2009 Liv Y (London, UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As a fan of Shakira, this long awaited album (both written and produced by herself) wasn't a dissapointment and I have it on repeat at the moment! Its definitely been influenced by other music - or should I say artists - around at the moment (dance/electronica, rn'b) but also incorporates Shakira's rock/pop/folk signature music style and the whole album comes together well as a whole. Its not one where less than half the tracks are great...most of them are which is a good reason for me to buy an album, although saying that it is also quite short with only 10 tracks (quality over quantity).
br /
br /It appears Amazon has advertised the album as having 12 tracks. Mine, which I bought on Play slightly cheaper, has 10 :(

3rd Album By The Excellent Shakira September 13, 2009 J. A. Leigh (UK) 2 out of 44 found this review helpful
First things first, I am basing the 5 stars upon hearing She Wolf as of course I have not heard the album yet. Since I heard Whenever, Wherever I've loved Shakira's voice, it's just as soulful as the fantastic Mariah Carey. The album is expected to be Latin Pop/Electro-Pop whilst exploring Dancehall. There will be 9 english songs and 3 spanish songs, one called La Loba which is She Wolf in Spanish. This is the proposed tracklisting hear, however I might be wrong:
br /
br /1. She Wolf (Excellent 1st Single)
br /2. Good Stuff
br /3. Did It Again (Rumoured Next Single)
br /4. Men In This Town
br /5. Long Time
br /6. Spy
br /7. Send Me An Angel
br /8. Gypsy
br /9. Why Wait
br /10. La Loba (She Wolf In Spanish)
br /11. Devoción (Devotion)Featuring Gustavo Cerati
br /12. Años Luz (Why Wait)
br /
br /I'm really waiting for this album too come out. Along with:
br /Debut Album - Alexandra Burke
br /Light Darkness - Christina Aguilera
br /Echo - Leona Lewis
br /Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel - Mariah Carey
br /The Boy Who Knew Too Much - Mika
br /Sweet 7 - Sugababes
