Vanessa Hudgens is not "indescribable," as the MC who opens V proclaims in a hopped-up, hyped-out voice. On the contrary, the smoky-eyed High School Musical star commands a multitude of adjectives--she's adorable, talented, ambitious, and as this debut makes clearer than a set of invisible braces, young. With one foot in the grown-up, club-going world and the other in a powder-pink bedroom with a Barbie under the bed, Hudgens kicks out a crop of hooky and highly accessible tracks here. First single "Come Back to Me" dabbles in a sophisticated breed of disco, "Let's Dance" lets rip a whispery torrent of R-rated come-ons, and "Let Go," bolstered by its girls-night-out lyric, loses its inhibitions beneath an R&B-lite beat. Elsewhere, on tracks no less compelling, Hudgens explores her inner Hilary Duff: "Drive" pops the hood on her pop-anthem side ("As long as I'm alive, I'm gonna drive"), and "Afraid" wrestles with a sense of vulnerability all wrapped up in teen hormones ("Why am I so afraid/I can't see what's come over me"). Split personality or no, Hudgens makes a strong case through her Anna Nalick-reminiscent vocals alone that she's someone worth watching--a lot of emotion pours through her still-developing pipes and, as anybody who saw High School Musical knows, the girl can twirl. -Tammy La Gorce
Album Description
Vanessa Anne Hudgens, the star who portrays Gabriella Montez on the runaway hit "High School Musical," has signed an exclusive recording deal with Hollywood Records. Her debut CD "V" is being released September 26. Said Buena Vista Music Group Chairman Bob Cavallo, "We are delighted to have Vanessa at Hollywood. Not only is she talented, she is tireless in her work ethic and has a vision for her career. People will be very impressed when they hear her voice and see her perform." Certainly, Vanessa is no stranger to performing. She made her feature film debut in Catherine Hardwick's "Thirteen" starring Holly Hunter and Evan Rachel Wood. Most recently she co-starred in the action-adventure film "Thunderbirds" and is a recurring guest star on the Disney Channel's "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody." Vanessa began her acting career in musical theater when she was 8 years old. She has played leading and supporting roles in "Evita," "Carousel," "The Wizard of Oz," "The King and I," "The Music Man," "Cinderella," and "Damn Yankees," among others.

Ack! January 21, 2009
Lily FB (Alaska)
I bought this album because I was looking for very simple, girly, generic sounding pop. I found it. It sounds exactly like what I wanted. I don't generally listen to Disney stars unless they are in musicals (which I have an completely unattractive weakness for) and was quite embarrassed to buy this album, or admit that I even contemplated the idea of buying it.
I even previewed BBV's other album and decided that it was too... much. It had too much going on. I wanted something bland and easy, and that what V is.
My favorite song from the album is Promise. It has a way of staying in your head, and repeating its self over and over. I love sappy girl power songs like I love musicals so Promise just really does it for me. Afraid and Drive are on my list as well of top favorites.
Lovely-I really liked this December 14, 2008
I really like this cd.I think vanessa put her all in this.My favorite songs are "Say Ok" and "Come Back To Me".
 A Wonderful Solo Debut By the Beautifully Talented Vanessa Hudgens September 20, 2008
MizKyGirl (Waukegan, IL, USA)
Vanessa Hudgens' debut album, "V" is a wonderful solo debut. The music on this album is a lot different than the music she sang in "High School Musical." Here is my review on this album:
#1.) Come Back to Me: A great, upbeat song to start the album off right. Vanessa's vocals blend perfectly within the tone and beat of the song.
#2.) Let Go: A cute, little hip-hop song. This is the type of song that would be played at a party or dance club.
#3.) Say OK: One of the greatest songs on this album. Vanessa sounds great on the song, it's got a great catchy beat, and also fun to dance to.
#4.) Never Underestimate A Girl: A bold and sassy song that reminds me of a typical "girl anthem" that all teenage girls could relate to.
#5.) Let's Dance: A funky, upbeat dance song that I wouldn't have expected Vanessa to sing, but it's very catchy and upbeat.
#6.) Drive: A mellow, relaxing song that is good to listen to.
#7.) Afraid: One of the two ballads on the album. This is my favorite song on the album. It's so mellow and soulful, plus Vanessa never sounded better.
#8.) Promise: Another upbeat song like "Let Go" and "Come Back to Me" with a catchy beat and melody.
#9.) Whatever Will Be: The second ballad on the album. It's a little like "Afraid," but it's more soothing and relaxing.
#10.) Rather Be With You: A nice little pop song that's got a good pop\rock beat and good to listen to.
#11.) Psychic: The song has a cool little hip-hop beat like in "Let Go" and once again, it's got a catchy dance beat.
#12.) Lose Your Love: A cool, hip-hop\pop song to end the album off on a good note.
If you love Vanessa Hudgens, then this is the album for you! I fully recommend it.
 Just another CD June 27, 2008

Well just now what is our music turning into. We have so many new bands and albums coming out each and every day. This is just another CD from just another young adult. I mean we are just trying to make more money and market to the youth of our nation. I mean we are no longer making CDs that will really last. Someone off of the street could just walk into a recording studio pretty much these days and make a CD. We just need to stop this. All it is is for our children. They want it so we have to but it for them.

I did was not expecting anything when my friend Pedro, let me borrow this cd, but I didn't think it was going to turn out this bad! Ashley Tisdale's album is so much better and I thought that album was going to be worst.
1. "Come Back to Me"-just ok not amazing (one line of the song was kind of copying one of Avril Lavine's song)
2."Let go"- BORING!
3. "Say Ok"- I actually really like this song.
4."Never Underestimate a girl"-girl power has been done million of times before
5."Let's Dance"- Used for the promo of "Dancing with the Stars"
6."Drive"- I like it until the chorus begins
7. "Afraid"- ANOTHER BORING SONG!
8."Promise"- Does not make any sense
9."Whatever Will Be"- completely different song
10."Rather be with you"-very blah
11."Psychic"-not as bad as the other songs on this CD.
11."Lose your love"-sounds just like psychic.
