Agnes Chan New Album "Forget Yourself" by Veronica Marie

Her first English Album released in the USA. Agnes Chan is above and beyond the hype (i.e., Asian pop superstar wants to make it big in America). She stands out above the rest and what I admire about her the most is the fact that she doesn't sell to sexual stereotypes of Asian women; just to sell albums to a Western audience.

"Inundated by billboards that let us know How we must have it all and never be denied But you know you can have it all and still not be satisfied Then one day I heard this voice like a mission bell from far away Then I felt it deep inside and this is what I heard it say Forget yourself..." - Agnes Chan, "Forget Yourself"

The humanitarian effort behind the album donates partial proceeds to UNICEF; and also includes special guest appearances' from Jackie Chan. This album unlike the others has a more ethnic urban feel. Tracks 3 and 6 are our favorites. Track 3 has some jazz, rock with a little touch of Bjork with some hip hop fusion.

Her album is more innovative, and inspiring than other burnt out pop stars. Fans should not hesitate to pick up the CD. I would bet tracks 3 and 6 would be a great sound track at a chic, hip club that you might typically catch a glimpse of Paris Hilton hanging out.
