This is a really good album. Some songs remind me of Tamia, for some reason. It's a shame she's gonna flop.

I know iTunes has "Dime Si Es Amor"...I don't think any stores have any bonus tracks.

This album is really good. I played it twice the whole way through and didn't feel the need to skip over any tracks.

Any first day sales showing up I'm assuming it's like 4, maybe 5 copies. I hate that this will flop since I love this girl. She reminds me of a younger Alicia Keys, I really want her to take off at some point

They changed it about a month ago. Her album sold out at the Circuit City over here, since I bought the last 2 copies. There were probably only 2 copies at the store.

I think 'Can't Find The Words' is A-MAZING! Should go to #1!

Why do labels put artist out if they are not going to f-ing promote them?

Actually, she debuted higher and sold more than I expected her to. I was expecting to see #156, 4k sold honestly.

The album is cute and Can't Find The Words is very lovely. However, I prefer the earlier leaked version of the quiet gem Slow Motion.

You would think this Grammy nomination would incite Def Jam to at least try and promote this album a little more. I understand she's in school and all but they could've sent something out to radio or at least make it known some kinda way that she got a Grammy nomination. Sad they treated her album release like a summer camp activity.
Teacher: Ms. Pasian, please tell the class what you did with your summer vacation.
Karina: Well, I slept a lot. Um, I went to a couple amusement parks and....oh yeah, I shot a music video. And then I....released an album. And I made enough money to come back home and buy some new outfits and my school supplies. And now I'm here.
