Mis-Teeq , the most electrifying phenomenon to emerge from England in some time - a blend of pop and R&B -arrives in America with the sensational trio's self- titled U.S. debut album, featuring tracks produced by StarGate (Sisqo, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, En Vogue, Brandy, Nelly ). Combining tracks from the group's two international albums, Mis- Teeq features five of its seven Top 10 U.K. hits, led by its U.S. premiere,"Scan- dalous." America, get ready to discover the soulful and sultry Mis-Teeq .
"If hip-hop is truly where the mainstream music market in the States is today, the lovely ladies of MIS-TEEQ are sure to become a member of a pretty exclusive group. Young UK and Irish acts achieving success in the States is rare in this day and age. Only a small handful have been able to break into the American market. MIS-TEEQ, I am confident, are more than capable of escaping the fate of Robbie Williams, Atomic Kitten and WestLife (whom have tried to gain success in the States, but have yet to make a big impression). Not that this has been fair. If you look at TLC, the MIS-TEEQ gals are the UK's answer to T-Boz, Chilli, and the late Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes. Edgy, sexy hip-hop and R&B, performed by 3 lovely young women with beautiful harmonies. Sound familiar? This alone is reason enough to believe that Americans will truly love MIS-TEEQ. Out of all the overseas music acts, their music really does fit in best over here. The dazzling first single 'Scandalous' is already a MAJOR hit in North America. It's edgy, sassy, and super sleek. The next single is the equally sassy 'One Night Stand' and could be followed by 'Can't Get It Back' 'All I Want' and the wicked 'Dance Your Cares Away.' 3 cheers for the MIS-TEEQ girls!

Mis-Teeq Is One Of The Best Female Groups Out There

"Mis-Teeq landed in the US last year in 2004 and they didn't do quite so well but Scandalous and One Night Stand became big hits in the clubs! The ladies in this group are Sabrina Washington [the amazing lead singer of the group] Alesha Dixon [the best MC and Rapper in the group and she has the higher voice than Sabrina], and Su-Elise Nash [the low pitched voice/choreographer]. Their UK hits are "Why", "All I Want", "One Night Stand", "B With Me", "Roll On/This Is How We Do It", "Scandalous", "Can't Get It Back", and "Style". The album brings back memories of when I entered High School last year, it really got me hype on the first day of High School, after 100X spins Mis-Teeq came to be my favorite female group surpassing TLC. Scandalous was, still is, and forever will be my song it's one of the hottest songs I ever heard and it should've reached Top 20 on the Billboard Charts! The tracklisting is average but they could've added their best songs such as Stamp Reject/Why/This Is How We Do It/Just 4 U/All In One Day/Strawberrez
Scandalous- This song is the jam! It makes you wanna sing along and dance My # 1 Favorite Mis-Teeq song, This song is FLAWLESS! 10/10
One Night Stand- Sounds similar to Scandalous but kinda gets boring after a while, it's still a fun dance track though 7/10
Best Friends- A good message to Mis-Teeq's good friends and fans around the world but it does get boring 7/10
Can't Get It Back (Radio Version)- This is another great song, the other version is better though 8/10
Home Tonight- A GREAT SLOW JAM! I love this song, It's one of those songs you can listen to at night when you're going to sleep or coming home from work 10/10
Roll On- Their is another version titled "Roll On Rischi Rich Bhangra Hop" It's waaaaay better than the Blacksmith one, but overall Roll On is a good song tellin you to get ya party on 10/10
All I Want- A good garage/dance song, It took me a while to like this song but overall it's great 10/10
That's Just Not Me- A reggae song where the ladies talk about that you can't get them in the bed on the first night and who cares about all the stuff you have. Kinda fun and kinda boring 7/10
How Does It Feel- Another one of my favorites, Sabrina's voice sounds good on this song, You can hear Su backing Sabrina up as well and Alesha should've gotten a part on this song! Still it's a good song 9/10
B With Me- Like Roll On, B With Me has a remix which is 10X better! It's more hype and it features a rap by Alesha, this song is great though I LOVE IT! 10/10
Do Me Like That- This sounds like that song "If I Can Go" This song is kinda boring, Alesha gives it some life by rapping 7/10
Dance Your Cares Away- THIS IS THE SONG! It features Alesha and Sabrina rapping on both verses, This is the definite party song! It also gives off a good message too. 10/10
Can't Get It Back (Salaam Mix)- Yes Mis-Teeq stole this from Blaque, but who cares!? They turned this into a hit! This one is better than the Ignorants Version, It has a more dance vibe to it and Alesha's Rap is just amazing! One of my all time favorites 10/10
Overall- 9/10
If you guys get tired of this album, spice it up by adding tracks such as The Roll On And B With Me Remixes, "Style", "This Is How We Do It", "Just 4 U", "All In One Day", and "Strawberrez"
PICK THIS UP IF YOU HAVEN'T! Mis-Teeq is one of the best female groups out there today. You won't be disappointed with this album."
Excellent, fun, catchy, danceable album

"I heard this album a few days ago and can't stop playing it! This album is just loaded with funky songs! It's very catchy! I didn't even know it had come out on July 20th! Took me 32 days to get it, but it was worth the wait! The first four songs kick the album off with the bang before it cools down a bit, then revs right back up! Liked the one that Joe contributed to the album. Kind of surprising that there's not that typical, mature, slow ballad on here, because they keep that energy going with all 13 dance numbers. Maybe the next album, they'll include one--they're still very young! The Mushtaq songs are heavy on the funk and give the opening two commercially-driven Stargate songs a run for their money! The girls all sing very good with conviction, and I like the Left-Eye sounding member of the group that jumps in with her raps. She's very good on her parts. They remind me of TLC in their mid-'90s prime. A very consistent album that they put out in the US even though they were popular internationally. I hope they perform in America soon. This is an album to watch for in 2004--it just came out of nowhere to be pumping in my car stereo!!!!!!!"
Good Dance Music

"This is a CD for you if you enjoy good beats and hot dance tracks. They do not compare to Destiny's Child, TLC or even 3LW in my eyes, but they still do make room in my CD player like other good CD's do. If you like "Scandalous" which is still a hot song after 2 months, you'll like the rest of the album hopefully. Other good dance tracks are "How Does It Feel" and "One Night Stand." Buy this."
