Carmen Electra Reviews:
Go White Girl! : A Descent into Madness
2008-04-03 - What a strange, strange album. When I first got it, I thought it was perhaps some sort of twisted joke from the 1990s - and since I am a genuine lover of all things bizarre and hilarious (preferably both at the same time), Carmen Electra's debut album seemed like the perfect candidate. Hey, if Traci Lords and Tia Carrere can release pop albums, who are we to fault Carmen?

But heres the thing. This is NOT a pop album. Instead, it's a full fledged rap album - and heavy on the rap. I'm not kidding. A couple years ago, there was this cruel/funny Jenny McCarthy movie called "Dirty Love" where Carmen played the role of a wannabe black rapper-masseuse. Its ironic that about a decade before that movie, she actually did record a rap album, and here it is.

Taking a page out of Janet Jackson's illustrious example of using `interludes' on an album, Carmen decides that good old rap songs aren't enough, and that we need `segues' between each of them. To be clearer, most songs are separated by a meaningless instrumental passage of the worst possible synthesizer muzak, and these are supposed to lend the album more punch as a `concept album'. What concept they were going for here is dubious at best, but let me just say that the album is not as hideous as you might expect. In fact, its quite a harmless slice of early `90s pop-rap, but it also exemplifies everything that is horrible about that genre.

The problem though is Carmens' disgusting voice. On all of the songs, she reads out the words (literally), and she doesn't so much sing as she does recite. The production is dated, the lyrics are laughable, and the end results are decidedly mixed. If you find worth in things that are so bad that they're good, then this might work for you (it did for me). Put this on for your friends and watch their indifference toward you transform into pure, unbridled hatred!

The greatest thing here, depending on your point of view, is the notoriously bad "Fantasia Erotica". Wow. The album ends with "This is my House" where Carmen defiantly states that this, indeed, is her house. You gotta hand it to Carmen. Its this sort of straight-forward songwriting that got such greats as Dylan and Jagger where they are today. Add Electra to that short list of luminaries.

I must be honest - this is good old fashioned pop-rap trash. They obviously wanted to project Carmen as the first all-white female rapper but people laughed the very concept out of the record stores, which is why this remains Carmen's only album. Still, for curiosity purposes as well as some camp kitsch, this is a must buy.

Three gloriously bad stars.


Get Ready For a Good Laugh!!!
2004-10-22 - This was Carmen Electra's debut album and she never released another after this flop (she probably realized she has no music talent or her record company dropped her). The songs on the album sound very dated (it's that early 90's dance/rap sound) and I guarantee you will be laughing hard when you hear Carmen's "singing" and rapping. All of the tracks are repetitive and if you don't listen closely you won't know when one song ended and when the next started. The only OK track is "Go-Go Dancer", but it's still a joke- a troop of background singers have to do all the singing (since Carmen's singing sounds more like talking) while Carmen raps in her thin little girl voice. It's hilarious hearing sweet little Carmen trying to sound tough and cool!!!

If you want a good laugh, buy the album. Otherwise, save your money.

Hidden Talent
2004-02-06 - Despite the obvious beauty of Carmen Electra, her debut album was a underground smash when it was released. Everyone wanted to know who was this beautiful woman on the cover. Can she sing?? is she just a model?? Well... despite the obvious fears when you buy a attractive lp or cd cover.. Carmen delivers... She successfully combines popish R&B fun, sultry sexiness, and rap (with the help of the wonderful Monie love) in one package. Nothing heavy, no serious issues, just good musical fun.
This cd was the ticket to Carmen's arrival to Hollywood via Baywatch, cable shows, movies etc. Prince produced most of this album and like the magic he provided to Vanity, Appolonia and even Sheena Easton's "Sugar Walls"+. Prince has a gift in revealing and encouraging talent with unknowns. This cd is nothin' but funky, with its touches of covers from James Brown to the Ohio players. The Prince signature of horns and organs is evident on this cd. Carmen has a knack for spitting out rap phrases and enuciates quite clearly. Its a cd I play often because it breathes fun, funkiness and live instruments.
With the nothingness of today's music, I'm quite happy to know I
have cd's like this one that puts most of today's music to shame simply by it's pure effort and musicality.
Carmen might not feel the need to record another album with all of her distractions.. but if you want to capture a talented beautful debut guided by a musical genius...buy this cd...you'll enjoy it.

Wonderful!
2003-07-11 - I got this CD today, and I can't stop playing it. Carmen has great talent as a singer, I don't know why she never tried another album! I have to admit, when I ordered this CD I thought it would be pop, but it is really more rap/hip-hop. The CD has 14 tracks, but really only 11 songs (the other three are very short "segues"). The best song, in my opinion is "Fantasia Erotica". That song is amazing. I also like this CD because it is good fun music, it isn't too serious! Music that is too serious brings you down. This CD lifts your spirits. I would reccomend this to anyone who wants to hear great music, and it is a MUST-HAVE for any Carmen Electra fans! If you buy it, you will not regret it! (especially at the cheap price it's going for on here, $3.00!)BUY IT!!!!!!! Thanks for taking the time to read this review, and I am honored to be the first person to write a review for this CD!
