Most of her singles this year (especially "Fight Together," "NAKED," "Love Story," and SSWD) were pretty good, though, so I'm sorta conflicted about the album. I think the album may grow on me in time, but right now, it's sort of a disappointment.
Actually, 4 new songs and 3 remakes/new versions

I'm more of a casual listener so this album pleases me a lot
I prefer YEAH-OH's japanese version though. Break it's new version is great, it offers a really different vision of it (which is really not something we usually get as "album version"). Hot Girls is really interesting, it sounds really different from the rest of the album, yet it totally fits in here. It may not sound as polished as the other new tracks, but it's not necessary something bad. It's quite addictive as a matter of fact.
