Jordin Sparks Album Review

Jordin Sparks is the first major-label album from sixth season American Idol winner Jordin Sparks.

The album was released on November 20, 2007 in United States and entered the Billboard 200 at #10 selling 119,000 copies, which many considered lackluster for an American Idol winner.
The album has surpassed the 500,000 mark in recent weeks and currently has sold almost 600,000 copies (595,000).

This debut album proves that Sparks has the voice to soar to greater heights, but she needs some edgier material to push her above the rest of the mainstream crowd.
