<I>This Is My Time</I> is sweet-faced teen queen Raven-Symone's first big-statement album: She's retiring the little girl fluff stuff, these songs seem to say, and trying on material mature enough to push her past <I>CosmoGirl</I> and <I>Teen People</I>'s readerships into the grownup racks. If there's anything surprising to this, it's how well it works. First track "Mystify" is a shimmering Indian-influenced number that sidles up to the underexplored place where hip-hop meets smooth R&B; "Overloved" engages with yearn-and-burn vocals set to the wordplay of legendary songwriter Diane Warren; and "Grazing in the Grass," the CD's only cover, is playful enough to recall the old Raven but fits in here for its flirtatiousness--it intentionally invites Janet Jackson comparisons. In addition to proving it's her time to take on adult themes, Raven makes the case that stylistic zigs and zags don't throw her. If pop, dance, and R&B are her jumping-off points, she uses them to expert effect for an easy landing into rock ("This Is My Time") and the irresistible club jam that is "Bump." "I don't wanna be just typical," Raven sings on "Typical," a rock-influenced closing track. If there wasn't much of a chance of that happening prior to <I>My Time</I>, it's all but impossible now. --<I>Tammy La Gorce</I>

The album is GREAT.......2007-03-18
I like the album "This Is My Time" by Raven-Symone. I know all the songs and they are all great songs. I listen to it everyday, I know if anyone brought the CD they wouldn't get enough of it. They would listen to it everyday, 24 hours a day of they could. The album had a mix of love songs, one song is kinda like from or about a cartoon movie songs, songs that you could really dance to, a song about life and how you should appriciate life, also how you should liv life and do things now cuz life is to short, also a song from the movie, "Lion King 1 1/2", also how to be yourself live your life your own way, and last is how life you will have your own time, which is the title of the album, "This Is My Time". T So the album is very educational and could teach people a thing or more. I suggest you buy it! :)
