Donnie Klang's Just a Rolling Stone Early Album Review

Donnie Klang along with Day 26 won the fourth season of MTV's Making The Band. After winning the prize, Donnie was quickly signed a solo deal to Sean "Diddy" Combs' Bad Boy record label. Now Donnie is prepared to show the world his own world on his debut album Just A Rolling Stone. Will Donnie be able to keep up the success from Making The Band artists and label mates Danity Kane and Day 26?

The first single off of Just A Rolling Stone is Take You There featuring Diddy. The track is produced by The Souldiggaz. The song is vintage Diddy with his now notorious ad-libs throughout the track. On the single Donnie channels his inner Prince. The song does not show off Donnie's vocal ability all that well. Diddy adds a traditionally strong cameo appearance to the track.

On the title track Just A Rolling Stone Donnie is teamed with producer Channel 7 formerly known as 7 Aurelius. The song has a different vibe than the other collaborations between Donnie and 7 featured on the album. The track is a mid-tempo track that features a strong melody and is overall very solid.

Dr. Love is another collaboration with Channel 7. The song features a very club friendly beat and solid lyrics. The song definitely has single potential and is one of the strongest tracks on the album.

The-Dream writes Hurt That Body which is one of the more urban tracks on the album. The song is catchy and well produced and written. The song is one of the better tracks on the album.

Pick It Up is Donnie's big Usher-styled ballad on the album. The song sounds like in the same vein as Usher's last album Here I Stand. The song is a very well put together effort.

Not A Love Song is produced by Mario Winans. The song has a distinctively dance and 1980's feel to it. The song is not one of the best tracks on the album but it is fairly solid.

Which One is a very club influenced track. The song will fit in perfectly with the Jersey Shore club scene.

Pretty Girls Cry might be the standout track of the album. The track is another club song. The song uses the instruments from the techno and house genre with R&B melodies. The combination makes for an interesting mix.
