    Paulina Rubio is completely authentic, vibrant, intelligent and passionate in everything she does; A true artist and performer. Her trademark voice, combined with her sensual, independent and playful nature, make her one of a kind and a fan favorite.

    4 out of 5 stars Great pop album   September 13, 2009
    M Cañas (New York, New York United States)
    Paulina picks up right where she left off with "Ananda," developing her pop-rock sound with some nice touches of regional Mexican music, dance and electro, and a couple of ballads for variety. She may not be a skillful musician like some of her peers (e.g. Ely Guerra, Julieta Venegas) or a great dancer and entertainer (e.g. Fey) or as insightful lyrically (e.g., Sasha Sokol), but she has a great ear for a good pop song and knows how to bring it to life, and is clearly devoted to her career in music, having released more albums than most of her peers. It is great that after years of following trends and imitating international artists she has found her niche and is sitting comfortably in it, bringing us great music. It's a benefit to the pop music lover. Say what you want about her love of being in the tabloids and gossip shows and her narcissistic behavior, she is a good pop singer committed to her craft.


    4 out of 5 stars I like it but I'm not that impressed.   September 8, 2009
    M. Henriquez (Boston, MA)
    I don't think is her best CD, but I like a few songs. The DVD included is great.


    5 out of 5 stars Very good.   August 25, 2009
    Javier Lopez (Peru)
    I like very much Paulina's music but her previous album "Ananda" from 2006 without being bad, didn't called much my attention. Three years later I heard her new single "Causa y efecto" and found it very good and then when "Grand City Pop" was released I bought it and to be honest, I didn't think that was going to be as good as it is.
    This album is very relaxed, it goes from one song to another and it is simply relaxful and enjoyable. It has Paulina's touch in the sense of mixing different rhythms but this time is softer, it just flows. It's so simple but sophisticated at the same time. I can easily say that this is her best album so far (she has great songs in previous albums but somehow that way that this one blends makes me like it more).
    I think that there isn't much to say just listen to the samples and maybe you will understand what I'm taliking about.
    I think the highlights are:
    *"Causa y efecto"
    *"La danza del escorpion"
    *"Mas que un amigo"
    *"Ni rosas ni juguetes" (Something that can't miss in a cd by Paulina is a song with some touch of Ranchera)
    *"A Contraluz"
    *"Escaleras de arena"
    *"Ya fue"

    The extras are good (they could have been better to be honest but for the price difference is fine). There are two more different versions of "Causa y efecto" and the DVD includes the video from "Causa y efecto" and some footage of how the made the video, album and photoshoots. I think that an interview would've been great but maybe they're saving this for a possible re-release.

    "Grand city pop" has had very positive reviews and in a month after the release has sold more than 300,000 copies worldwide. The first single "Causa y efecto" became a #1 hit in Billboard's "Hot Latin Tracks" and "Latin Pop Airplay" and Top 10 in Spain. "Grand City Pop" also topped the "Top Pop Latin Albums" from Billboard and debuted at #2 on Billboard's "Top 75 Latin Albums".



    4 out of 5 stars Good album.   July 23, 2009
    Alejandro C. Espinosa (HOUSTON TX)
    Gran city pop is the best album by Paulina Rubio. her team knows what songs to choose to be a success!
    This is a different but more serious Paulina more daring in her lyrics of affection.

    Best songs

    *Causa y efecto.- The hit...
    *Enseñame.- fits in Paulinas voice perfectly.
    *Ni rosas ni juguetes.- The second megahit?? maybe
    *Amaneci sin ti... y me siento muy feliz. - good lyrics.
    *Algo de ti.- Paulina got some trance tunes in this song, very catchy.

    Songs I don't like.

    *La danza del escorpion.- I think this song is a "filler".it is between Shakira and Ricky Martin sounds.

    Once again, they did banda version of the mega hit Causa y efecto, to be honest, I do not think Paulina likes this kind of music, since Pau is very sophisticated.

    the dvd is mediocre a very few extras.It is like Ms.Rubio's husband take the sony webbie camcorder and record some??????????????
    Althoug, worth the photo shoot, where paulina looks like a first-level model.
    after watch the dvd I realized that, there are only two photos in the album. And ,all those pics from the photo shoot, where are they??????



    This album should be elected the best POP album in spanish language of the summer 2009. you do not regret buying this album.

    Paulina Rubio has always been a success.Le pese a quien le pese
