Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Ever since the November 2007 digital release of the hilarious, zeitgeist-capturing single "Ur So Gay," Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Katy Perry has been wowing critics and fans alike (including the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna) with her big voice, sassy attitude, and feisty, confessional songs. Katy's debut album, One of the Boys, is a sharp, witty pop-rock gem filled with candid tales of neurotic ex-boyfriends ("Hot N Cold," "Ur So Gay"), crazy road trips with friends ("Waking Up in Vegas"), and figuring out who you are along the way (first single "I Kissed A Girl," "Fingerprints"). While the album displays Katy's feisty, girl-power swagger, it also reveals her more vulnerable side on such regretful ballads as "Lost," "I'm Still Breathing," and "Thinking of You." Although just 23, the Santa Barbara, CA-born native has been writing songs and playing guitar for several years, and possesses the flair and confidence of a veteran storyteller. Catch her in all her glory this summer when she joins the Vans Warped Tour for its entire coast-to-coast run.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - To Amazon: Please move this cd out from the music section
What's changed in cheap clueless teeny bopper market driven pop? Nothing. The more things change...



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Total garbage!
I can't believe all the 5-star ratings for this CD, this has to be a joke! I would give this 0 stars if I could.
While somewhat catchy, the hyper-produced songs have a familiar radio-ready quality that becomes infuriatingly mind-numbing over time, and Perry's vocals sound like a less-soulful Kelly Clarkson at best, a drunken, spurned sorority girl at worst.
Madonna and Perez Hilton may be fans, then, but if you've got even a passing interest in actually enjoying a record, don't buy ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not what I expected
Katy Perry is a great singer and has the right idea with her songs. However, the musical aspect of the other tunes besides the two radio hits kind of misses the mark. Such a shame for a talented person such as she.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - BORING.....UGHHH.....
THIS IS TRULY THE YEARS BIGGEST SLEEPER....AND I DON'T MEAN THAT IN A GOOD WAY....DID I MENTION THIS IS THE MOST BORING PIECE OF MUSIC(IM NOT SURE IF IT SHOULD BE CALLED THAT). WHEN LISTENING USE CAUTION. COULD POSSIBLY MAKE EARS BLEED.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Katy Perry Tackles Gender Stereotypes
There are a lot of things that work here, unlike pop albums that are hodge-podges of hits and misses. Perry's unifying theme here is gender stereotypes. From 'One of The Boys' to 'I Kissed a Girl' to 'Ur So Gay' to 'Mannequin,' Perry satirizes popular conceptions of what it means to be female or male. Yet she sincerely paints a picture of loving and longing on other tracks on like 'Thinking of You,' 'Lost,' and 'I'm Still Breathing.' This album is very listenable, song-for-song, with lots of clever ... Read More
