SISQO: Unleash the Dragon (Universal) -- Following on from the provocatively-titled Thong Song comes this number from a man who seems to have his mind on one thing all the time -- and I don't think I need to tell you what that is. This catchy number will stick in your head all day and proves that Sisqo is more than just a one-hit wonder. (6/10) DH
BILLIE PIPER: Something Deep Inside (Innocent Records) -- By adding her surname to her stage name, Billie appears to be telling us that she has grown up. Her comeback single, Day and Night, took her away from her teen pop image and his sultry number has a distinctly soul flavour which will surprise many. (7/10) DH
SONNY JONES: Follow You, Follow Me (Epic) -- Do we really need a cover version of this old Genesis song? We think not. Basically it's an uninspired pile of pants. (7/10) LC ALBUMS: DHRICHARD BLACKWOOD: You'll Love to Hate This (EW) -- This album would be better titled "You'll Hate to Love This" because this man just has it all. Unfortunately, this trendy album is too much fun to hate, primarily because Richard politely mocks himself throughout. His singles Who's the Man and 1, 2, 3, 4 Get With the Jiggy set the pace for the album. It's a feelgood album which will remind you of those summer nights which never were this year. (6/10) DH
ULTIMATE IBIZA: (Ministry of Sound) -- Another one out of the bag from the Ministry, this time mixed by Brandon Block and Alex P. With those two names, it was bound to sizzle, and indeed it does, with York, Planet Perfecto and Zombie Nation all setting the tone for what is an impeccable reflection of Ibiza 2000. (9/10) DH
KYLIE MINOGUE: Light Years (Epic) -- From the Princess of reinvention (The Queen, by the way, is Madonna) comes this new album which shows just how diverse Kylie can be. With the emphasis very much on the dance sounds, Kylie is guaranteeing herself a bestseller even if means she has begun the return to her poppy roots. A good listen but nothing special. (6/10) DH
