Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes - Supernova

Ive been waiting SOOO long....

I have been waiting since this album to come out to get it, and thats been since 2002. I could not find it anywhere, and when I came onto Amazon.com and searched for it a few weeks ago, I was so excited. I ordered it and just received it a few days ago. I have listened to the entire CD and am honestly thoroughly dissapointed. I thought this CD was supposed to be a breaktrough for Lisa Lopes, a new sound.. a great new beginning, electrifying, and supposed to leave her fans speechless. I didnt find any of that to be true.

First off, the sound of this CD is poor, it sounded as if she barely spent any time on it and just wanted to throw something together just for fun, quickly. Some songs do sound like she is reciting poetry, and some songs sound like a normal rap song, going with the flow of the music. I really dont see how this made it to number one as it was only sold internationally. The only song I could see myself listening to a few times out of the year would be song 4, "Let Me Live".

If you are looking for a poor sounding, low quality CD that was thrown together in less than a week (thats what it sounds like) then go and buy this CD. As for my copy I am selling it. Talk about a let down after all those years of searching for this ::sigh:: December 9, 2008

Somewhat disappointed.

I bought this album a few months ago- didn't even know it existed until recently. I was a fan of Lisa Lopes back in the day, and always thought she should do her own project, so when I found out about Supernova I ordered it immediately. I hate to say it, but it was not that impressive. Tracks 1-4 were pretty much all I listened to, but this cd did not contain any hits.

I think what I didn't like about it is that it sounds like she is at a poetry reading or something. Her raps were not as hard hitting or catchy as I remember during her time with TLC, so it was quite strange. I do not recommend Supernova unless you are a hardcore fan who enjoys poetry readings.

Into Left Eye's World

Overall I think this is a good album. There are a lot of songs I like and I thinkg its just very interesting to hear what she has to say. I think all TLC/Left Eye fans should get this CD. There are just a couple of songs on there that I tend to skip over, but other than that I think its a cool album. August 3, 2007

something people wasnt ready for

1. LIFE IS LIKE A PARK
it was very creative and kinda inspirational as well. she had bad boy artist carl thomas featured on the song and the song was very good.

2. HOT
This is probably the BEST song IMO on the album. The beat was done by producer "rockwilder" and the beat itself will make u love it and the the song and lyrics are also great. This was also suppose to be the 2nd single from the album before she had passed away.

3. THE BLOCK PARTY
Ok this was the 1st single released from the album. IMO this is one of the weakest songs on here and even being one of the weakest its still a good song tho. The song is just basically about when she was younger and growing up and the fun things she'd do then.

4. LET ME LIVE
Let me live is another one of my favorite tracks on here. The song is just about her and how people kinda misjudge her and say things they THINK they know but they really don't. she speaks about the things in her career she has done solo and with TLC. This is also a creative song also considering when u listen to the song in the background of the chorus she is spelling her name out.

Let me live
In inside inside intelligence
Say say say say what you gotta say
Always ask and you will be amazed

Pay attention and as she is sayin that part of the chorus in the background she is spelling her name throughout the chorus.

5.JENNY
Produced by jazze pha and another one of my favorite songs on there also. The song is really just about her and her friends and obviously her other friend JENNY. Its just a cool laid back kinda song and is worth listening to.

6. I BELIEVE IN ME
The song is exactly what it says. The song is about nobody but her lol. The song also features one of the versus from the TLC 3D album song "over me" and its verse 2 on the song on here. The song is ALL ABOUT HER.

7. RAGS TO RICHES
The song features her on again/off again then boyfriend andre rison. Not one of the best songs and one of the weak points on here but still is a good song. Its just what the title says also I mean its just about coming up from being broke and poor to getting money and being able to get yourself and your family all this stuff and houses and all.

8. TRUE CONFESSIONS
This song was VERY creative. She speaks on her and her boyfriend about how he wanted more than just the regular relationship which meant he wanted to do more things and that included having another partner included so she speaks on how he wants another girl included and how she cant deal with it anymore but later finds him cheating even after saying he was done.

9. UNTOUCHABLE
This song features 2pac shakur. The song really features her instead as it says in the booklet cuz it is HIS song and she wanted to feature him on there since he wasn't alive to really do it like she wanted since they was such good and close friends before his death. The song is VERY great tho and she could even stay on the same flow and everything with 2pac so she was really doing something then.

10. HEAD TO THE SKY
This a inspirational song. The song is talking to the kids about how they need to be so they can get further in life. She also speaks about how not letting anyone discourage you from doing something that you want to achieve in life cuz if u continue to believe it will soon happen. The song also features her female trio and fake TLC wannabe's BLAQUE with a rap by the group rapper "natina reed" and the 2 singers "brandi & shamari" singing on the chorus.

11. THE UNIVERSAL QUEST
The song is great to me. This is a song A LOT of people would not expect from someone like her but she did. The song is just something you HAVE to listen to. This is a song saying how some things are just up to you. The song is basically wanting to know who controls your life? Are you in control, are you free or are u just following whatever you feel is being told to you from god.

12. A NEW STAR IS BORN
The song is about her father who passed away around the time when TLC was just being signed back in 1992. the song is all about how she misses him and how she wishes she could once again see him and be with him but just not so soon. Unfortunately she got to go be with her father once again sooner than she really did expect to.

13. BREATH
Very good song she did good on this one and this is also another song nobody would expect to hear from her. This song is about what people do not see outside of the spotlight and outside of TLC. She is talking about who she REALLY is and she just wants to breath and she wants you to see HER as LISA NICOLE LOPES and not just as LEFT EYE of TLC. She also speaks on the industry and how she puts on her faces for the fans when she has to. She talks about how she has to deal with the criticism from everyone about mostly anything when it comes to her. February 23, 2007
