4 out of 5 stars brasil spears?.......2003-04-14

Whoa! Brasil has their own Britney? Not really. Kelly Key is not quite Britney, not almost Britney; but an entirely better version of Britney. Perhaps it has something to do with hearing her sing in that great Brasilian accent that convinced me to cast a vote for Kelly. Or maybe, it has to do with being a teenage boy with little control over his emotional urges when it comes to sexy female brasilian pop singers ;-)
Kelly de Almeida Alfonso was born on March 3, 1983, in Rio de Janeiro, and is of Portuguese descent. Kelly eventually chose the surname "Key" as it represented the "Key to Success."

It seems to me that Kelly Key knows what her strengths are and is not afraid of exploiting them to the fullest.
While Kelly Key may be a South American sensation with hits such as "Escondido" ("Hidden") and "Baba" ("Drool"), many of us are missing out (mainly because she has yet to release an album in English). With foreign imports like Shakira and Paulina Rubio making waves, now is as good a time as any for her to jump on the bandwagon.
OK, after all that I'm sure people would like to know if she can sing. The answer is yes. Mixed with a bit of luck (Dalmo Belloti, who at the time was a manager at Sony Music and a friend of the family was impressed by Kelly and took her under his wing) and talent (her voice mixed with the production of Brazilian DJ Cuca known for his Midas touch in the R&B and pop genres) Kelly's first CD is a catchy and impressive mix of dance, R&B and ballads which make for a great CD.
As a testament to this fact, I did not skip one song whilst listening to the CD as all the songs brought something different to the table. From the whole CD, if I had to a pick a favourite song, Anjo, Baba & Cachorrinho are the three songs that stand out for me with Só quero ficar close behind.
Kelly's best bet would be to release an English album while she's still hot. As evidenced over the years, second-language success is definitely possible.

5 out of 5 stars Great debut!.......2003-03-07

My favorite bands are Radiohead, Smiths, Pulp, etc. So I was one of the last people in the world who would buy a Kelly Key album, but I canýt stop listening to it. Letýs face the facts:

1- Escondido - A great song and a potential worldwide hit.(10/10)

2- Sý quero ficar - This is gorgeus, not repetitive at all.(8.5/10)

3- Bolada - Good, especially the groove.(8/10)

4- Anjo - Although reaching the number 1 spot in Brazil, this is a nice, but not excellent ballad. (7.5/10)

5- Baba - The song that started it all. (9.5/10)

6- Brincar de amor - Very catchy and sensitive. (8.5/10)

7- Tudo com vocý - One of her best songs! Well-crafted vocals and a somewhat unconventional (but lovely) keyboardsý lines.(10/10)

8 - Quem ý vocý - A beautiful ballad, better than "Anjo". (8.5/10)

9- Viajar no groove - The title says it all... A dancefloor killer! (9/10)

10- Cachorrinho - A huge hit. Kelly at her best. Classic. (10/10)

11- Escondido (remix)- Radio edit. Shorter and more conventional than the original. (9.5/10)

Considering that she recorded this album when she was 17, thereýs a great expectation for her next effort and itýs very unlikely that she will disappoint any of her fans. Iým waiting...

P.S. - If youýre into brazilian music, you need to hear a young band called "Los Hermanos", theyýre fantastic!

1 out of 5 stars The Worse Brazilian Singer!.......2003-03-03

Don't spend your money with this singer! Kelly is the worst singer in Brazil. And worst than Britney Spears!
Have you tried to translate the lyrics into english?
Cachorrinho(Puppy) - It isin't for kids, this music is about her Boyfriend Latino!
Baba - Talk about Lolitas girls that wanna get a real man!
Escondido(Hidden) - this music tells bout Kelly Key's life, when she used to go out hidden with her boyfriend to Motel till she win a baby! She's only 20 and have a baby girl who's is 2 years old!
Think twince before you buy it,cuz here in Brazil we have good singers as Luiza Possi, Wanessa Camardo and Duda

5 out of 5 stars Brazilian Britney.......2003-02-19

Kelly Key is one of my favorite artists. This beutiful Brazilian girl sings pop with a mix of R&B and a bit of rap. This is what i think of each song

1.Escondido (Hidden)(10/10) This is my favorite song. In this rap song Kelly sings in English with DJ Funk. Kelly's best!

2.So Quero Ficar (I Just Wanna Stay) (5/10) I don't really like this song. It is very repetive and annyoing. This is Kelly Key's worst song.

3.Bolada (9/10) Great pop song. Kelly sings about how her
ex-boyfreind was cheating on her.

4.Anjo (Angel) (8/10) This a slow love song. It is one of Kelly's best.

5.Baba (10/10)This is Kelly's signature song. It is a pop song with great beat. It is similar to Britney's Oops I Did It Again. It is really fun to listen to.

6.Brincar De Amor(The Game of Love) (9/10)This is a sweet pop love song with a fast beat. Great to dance to. I love it.

7.Tudo Com Voce (Just With You)(6/10) A Booooooooring pop song. It is more repetive then track 2! One of Kelly's worst!

8.Quem e Voce (Who You Are)(8/10) Another slow love song. A bith repetive thogh.

9.Viajar No Groove (Groovy) (10/10) This song really is groovy! It has a little of rap at the end.

10. Cachorrinho (Puppy) (10/10) Kelly talks anout her disobedient puppy. Fun to listen to. Good for kids!

11.Escondido Remix (Hidden) (10/10) Just like track 1. But no rap. More pop.

Overall Rate (10/10) A+!
THis CD is very fun music. It is great to dance to. If you like Shakira, Ivete Sangalo, JLO, or Xuxa you probably will enjoy Kelly Key.
