Review of Arika Kane:

Arika Kane - Arika Kane (CD, BSE Recordings, Pop)
A word of warning. If you don't like super slick commercial pop you probably won't get into this. But if you're like us...and occasionally enjoy a good guilty pleasure...you may find yourself falling in love with the super slick sound of Arika Kane. This enchanting young lady is obviously making music for the masses. But she has such a great voice...and co-writes such cool songs...that you can't help but be positively affected by her music. Danceable pop cuts include "Make It," "All My Life," and "Never Really Knew U." The only negative here is the occasional presence of some annoying guest hip-hop vocals. Other than that one minor complaint, this is a solid release worthy of your attention...
