Details: Product Description Keshia Chante Amazon.ca On her second album, 2U, Keshia Chanté proves her prodigious style is no gimmick and shows an increasing confidence that comes from achieving platinum sales in her native Canada. The disc's title track "2U" is a spectacular pop song, containing a perfect balance of old-school funk and contemporary soul. Much like Justin Timberlake's debut or a classic Janet Jackson track, it captures the kind of vibe that gets everyone from teens to seniors out on the dancefloor. 2U's lead-off single "Been Gone" brings back her trademark Nelly-esque staccato stylings, first heard on her debut disc's chart hits "Unpredictable" and "Bad Boy." Beyond those tracks, there are a handful of uptempo pleasantries (the Whitney-esque "Be About Yours" and Aguilera-influenced "Can't Believe") but much of the remaining disc is simple, predictable R&B. Chanté has the voice, timing, and maturity to attain megastardom. Whether or not she does depends on her ability to put together an album filled with world-class, cross-generational songs--rather than one designed to appeal exclusively to teenagers. --Denise Sheppard
