Lately, I have been hearing much of her songs together with Akon, she have really rocked the charts. Her voice is so powerful, not only that she can sing very well, she's also very smart and had a very strong character, not your typical damsel-in-distress gal!:afro:

I know who Akon is but I don't know the song you are referring too. I do think she can sing well, but I dont think she always picks the best songs suited for her. What are some of the songs?

Fergie is definitely a very sassy lady. She started out well before going solo though so she had a great background to help her be confident. Is the Akon song Clumsy?

Yah, Fergie is proved her worth by making it to the charts. I think the songs she handpicked suits her. And she had a way at entertaining her audience. :)

I think she is a good performer to start off with, even if I may not like all of the songs she has done. She has something about her that is attention grabbing, which for any artist is a well needed trait.

I haven't really heard all the songs of Fergie. But she has a very powerful voice. Maybe some of her songs may not sound so nice but with the way she performs she can make her audience scream when she dance. :) Love her body also.

Not a fan of Fergie at all, although I could still think of far worse.

I want nothing to do with modern pop or R&B or whatever they wanna call her music now.

I'm better off just avoiding mainstream crap, and sticking with my trance albums.

Well, mainstream is the 'in' thing because it caters to a large audience. It may not sound very pleasing but then, its radio-friendly and that matters to most people. But then there are people who dig a particular music because of their personal preference and taste. My brother loved death metal, although we don't mesh well with choice of music, I understand his thing and passion. :)
