This sophomore effort from Danity Kane is undoubtfully amazing. Each track has it's own originality, and they brought it back with their hit single, "Damaged". For awhile many people thought they were not going to make it in the industry because they were a one hit wonder. But now with this album, they are showing what they got! 1. Welcome to the Dollhouse - 9/10. It is a great intro to the album. The beat is really "dollyish", and gets you ready to enter the "Dollhouse". 2. Bad Girl - 9/10. Definitely a dance track. It has so much to offer. I personally think it will be the second single. C'mon! Missy Elliot is on it! 3. Damaged - 9/10. It was a great first single. It has a nice pop beat that introduces the album to audiences. It will attract the "pop" culture. 4. Pretty Boy - 10/10. This song is FABULOUS! I remember hearing it for the first time, and I hated it with a passion. It grew on me after awhile. Even then, I didn't really LOVE it. Then I heard the album version, and there was so much editing that was done to it. It's AMAZING! 5. Strip Tease - 9/10. Currenty, it's one of my favs. The lyrics may be a bit mature, but they are in their twenties. They can sing about that stuff. The beat is awesome, and I love Dawn on the track. 6. Sucka For Love - 7/10. I remember listening to the preview for this song, and I fell in love. The song is good. That's it. I love the chorus because it's catchy, but everything is bleh. The verses do nothing for me, and the bridge doesn't excite me. Definitely not the best on the album. I wish the verses were more catchy. 7. Secret Place - 8/10. It's a nice first interlude. There's not much to say about it. I love the beat, and the vocals are good, definitely Dawn. 8. Ecstacy - 8/10. There is too much rapping in the beginning for me. I love the song other than that. The beat is original, and I love the change of tempos. The bridge does it for me! Dawn hits that high note, and gives me chills! 9. 2 Of You - 7/10. I think it's a weak track. It's very raw, even though there is some editing done. It's definitely not one of my favs. 10. Lights Out - 10/10. I really love this song! Dawn did an amazing job writing this song. There is a lot of stuff going on in it that attracts me. The beat is awesome, lyrics are great, vocals are amazing. It's a perfect one to me. Plus, it's catchy! 11. Picture This - 9/10. Some real poetry right here. D. Woods and Aubrey sound great speaking the words to this interlude, and Dawn's backgrounds vocals are soothing. 12. Poetry - 10/10. I fell in love with this song when I heard the snippet of it. Then I heard the full version, and I fell in love again. There is so much harmony, and the emotion is displayed well. Love it! 13. Key To My Heart - 7/10. My least favorite. It just doesn't do anything for me. The beat is off. And I'm just not attracted to it. 14. Flashback - 9/10. It's my favorite interlude. I wish it was a full song. The vocals are amazing, and it's so full of soul. 15. Is Anybody Listening? - 9/10. This is a nice song. I think there was lots of emotion displayed. I really like slow songs by Danity Kane because of the soul in their voices. Plus, it has a great message in the lyrics. 16. Ain't Going - 9/10. It's great! That's all I can say. The boys and DK sound great. I was expecting a little bit more from it though.

What a waste of money. There are too many girls and no focus. This album goes down with the rest of the overproduced, undertalented, and sadly mistaken wannabes who will be forgotten in 5 years.

I did buy their debut album and it was decent, some of the songs were some of my favorites, but I have to say that "Welcome to the Dollhouse" has more of edge than their debut album. It has songs that just make you want to get up and do something and it has soulful and vibrant music. I recommend the album.

I did not buy or listen to their first album, so I cannot compare the two. However, I can say without a doubt that this sophomore release is a body moving, heart jumping hit. When I am in a bad mood, I put it on turn it up and tune out everything else. Worth the money.
