Demi Lovato: “Unbroken”
Demi Lovato went from Disney star to train wreck in a matter of seconds. Most people know her from being the star of a Disney Chanel show called Sonny With a Chance. Last year her name was more well known for punching her backup dancer in the face. Lovato was checked into rehab for several different issues including cutting herself and bulimia. Almost a year later she released a album titled “Unbroken”. Her first single was “Skyscraper”, about her personal issues, which was a huge hit. Lovato's new album is very different compared to her old ones. She talks about going out and guys in a way she hasn’t before. This album has collaborators from Jason Derulo all the way to Timbaland and Missy Elliot. Many of the songs talk about love and heartbreak which she went through right before her stay in rehab with Jonas Brothers Joe Jonas. You hear the pain and suffering in many of her songs including “Lightweight” and “Fix a Heart”. Lovato also sings about her rocky relationship with her father in “For the Love of a Daughter”. “Who's That Boy” featuring Dev is a great pump up song for hanging with friends or working out at the gym. Every song on this album sounds new and fresh. There is a great balance of serious and fun songs, each song flows into the next. Disregard her past with Disney because this album has several hits and unlike most Disney stars Lovato has an amazing voice. I strongly suggest you pick up a copy of “Unbroken”.
i think the intro was a good starting point since it introduces readers who aren't familiar with the artist. i also liked how the intro led into the review of the album, and how there was a connection between the two through Demi's personal issues. the last two sentences are in my opinion the most important, because they separate the music from the artist, and encourage the reader to look past Demi's personal issues.
ReplyDeleteI liked the slam on Disney stars at the end, "unlike most Disney stars Lovato has an amazing voice."
ReplyDeleteYour intro was fairly strong as well, immediately putting the album and the artist into perspective.
