    The best song on the album isn't even on the album:

    Turn Me Round (International bonus track)

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ESa5BfZcKC4&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ESa5BfZcKC4&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    This sounds like it could go on Pinkerton or even the Blue Album.

    I just don't find much to like about this album. Jermaine Dupri produced 2 songs, hasn't he been irrelevant for like 5 years? One of the songs he produced, Can't Stop Partying, is basically Weezer's attempt at a MGMT song (they covered Kids and mashed it with Poker Face this summer). Lil Wayne sings on it. They also have a song with an Indian singer and and I can't help but think they latched onto things that were big in 09 like MGMT, Lil Wayne aka Lil Weez(er)y, and Slum Dog Millionaire. If I can force myself, I may sit through Make Believe again because I think it might be better than this.

    The other song I really liked is also a bonus track:
    Get Me Some
