She Is Hot
2009-10-12 - I Think she is a Very Good Artist. Her Lyrics put even a Rap fan in a High Spirit. This is a melow album which I would Deinitely recommend to a Friend
Awesome!
2009-09-29 - I have always been a fan of Brooke. This is her sophomore cd. It is awesome.
Another Pretty Face with Moderate Talent 
2009-09-29 - Those that gave this music positive reviews must watch her show and just rated it for that. There is nothing special here.
A lot better then I expected 
2009-09-06 - I'll admit, it was pure curiousity that brought me to listen to this album. I'd only ever heard "About Us" from Brooke before, but I thought it was only okay.
To my pleasure, I found this album was a lot better then I thought it would be. Brooke has produced a very entertaining album with all kinds of songs on it - slow songs, angry songs, upbeat hip hop tracks, sexy tracks etc.
I especially love "Finish Line" - the album's closing track. Although the version from her Judgment Day mixtape is a bit better (it's almost acoustic, without all the electronic sounds in the background, but is ruined by a voiceover from a rapper at the ending), this is still gorgeous. It's Brooke's ode to her supporters, saying she won't give up on them. The lyrics are very meaningful, and the song is gorgeous. I love this one.
"Dear Mom..." is another favourite. Brooke wrote this one about her mother Linda, ripping into her for things she's done over the years. The song is slower, but Brooke puts all her power into it. It has a spoken conversation between Brooke and Linda in the middle, which is very angry. This song is surprisingly catchy, especially on the chorus. Definitely give this one a listen.
"Strip" is the album's first proper track, and it's HOT! Very electronic sounding, this song is very reminiscent of what's popular right now. The lyrics are really cool and Brooke's vocals are very sexy.
"Hey Yo!" features Colby O'Donis (who's sung with Lady GaGa) and was the album's second single. It's a very cute track, catchy and singable. This was a good single choice, but unfortunately it flopped.
"Redemption" is a very weird song, but for some reason I like it. It's quite repetitive, but it does work. The only way I can think to describe this song is a dance/rock hybrid.
The intro of the album is really cool, it sounds a lot like the intro to Christina's Aguilera's Stripped album, with people talking about Brooke and her family. A very cool way to open the album.
There are some weak tracks, but nothing is horrible and everything is worth a listen or two.
Favourites = Finish Line, Dear Mom... and Strip.
I was going to give the album 3 stars, but Brooke worked hard on this album and Finish Line is fantastic, so 4 stars is it.
