Ashlee Simpson

I Am Me  Hear it Now

RS: 1.5of 5 Stars

It could have been the inspiring story of a young, maligned lip-syncer redeemed by a second album that proved she can really sing. Instead, Ashlee Simpson's follow-up is a collection of eleven soulless tunes that fail to even qualify as guilty pleasures. Simpson attempts to channel Gwen Stefani on the faux-funkdafied "L.O.V.E.," warbles through a sapped-out ballad on "Catch Me When I Fall" and even tries to evoke the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Karen O on the pop-funk "Boyfriend." In venturing to offer something for everyone, Simpson offers nothing for anyone.
