Billboard's review of A Public Affair
A Public Affair
JESSICA SIMPSON
Producer(s): Lester Mendez
Genre: POP
Label: Epic


Jessica Simpson opens a new chapter in her life ready to set the charts ablaze. Her first release post-100 mph ascent to the A-list is an ecstatic pure-pop frolic reminiscent of Madonna's "Lucky Star." Giddy, wildly adventurous production from Lester Mendez is an absolute delight—maddeningly catchy and brimming with melodic twists and turns—giving "A Public Affair" the potential to actually signal a tidal shift back to the center for top 40—it's that good. Neglected pop fans will lather over this unapologetically fluffy summer song while habitual Simpson detractors will see her in a new light. A public affair, indeed. This record is perfect. A+

Wow, billboard is one of the hardest critics, big rebound after 'Boots'! :heart:

What?
Billboard loves every single they review it seems.


Anyway, it is SO 80's Madonna. I think it even sampled Holiday no? It's fun I guess, but it's a little too retro.

haha, so cool she got good reviews...its a good song.

Who reviewed this? A Deaf Person?

Billboards been way too +++++++++++++++++++++++ lately

haha :P i like it :X

she is trying to be original atleast.

Isn't tit he very opposite though lol? Obviously going for a well known sound.

the opposite would be releasing a hot track with a rapper

That review is really positive, which is shocking seeing as how Chuck Taylor reviewed it AKA the biggest asshole at Billboard.

Uh, welcome back from 2001.


80's pop is back in a big way, more so then ever with this song. It hardly puts a modern spin on anything. Hardly original. Just saying.
