The album is actually rather good, But C'mon Madonna! You can do so much better than this.

"Hard Candy" is overall a Dance/Electronic album with hip-hop sensibilities.
I love all the songs minus the weirdo "Spanish Lesson" which i can only listen too a couple times before i'ts on skip mode all over again.

I'm hoping and praying for another "Confessions on the Dancefloor" or "Ray of Light" but for right now, this album is actually pretty catchy material.

My Favorite Songs are
Devil Wouldn't Recognize You- I LOVE THE LYRICS and the Tempo of the ballad, i just wish Justin Timberlake's influance wasn't so obvious.
Give It 2 Me- classic Madonna dance track- i love it.

Great album, but we know she can achieve Monumental material , "Hard Candy" is just too generic. It's the type of stuff we expect from the Pop Princess, not the Queen of Pop. so i give it 4 stars.
