Editorial Reviews

Sound Loaded, Ricky Martin's follow-up to his self-titled 1999 triumph, is a marvel as much of cross-country technological wizardry as of a multicultural pop sensibility. "She Bangs," its first single, was made in seven locations from Miami to Hollywood; all the work results in a gratifying everything-and-the-kitchen-sink uptempo extravaganza. (The details include a sampled nod to Fishbone, an apparent influence on 1999's "Livin' la Vida Loca," and the delightful malapropism "She looks like a flower but she stings like a bee.") If the rest of the disc never quite matches that high, neither does its quality sink much; if anything, Sound Loaded may be a bigger cut-for-cut success than its predecessor. The winners are mostly similar dancefloor rockers, but the ballads generally skirt the edge of treacle. Spanish versions of "She Bangs," "Come to Me," and "Loaded" are additions to the dozen cuts in English. --Rickey Wright
Product Description

Sound Re-Done.......2007-02-15
Ricky Martin's eponymous debut album had sold really good in 1999 and there was alot of hype around him at the time. The best way to follow up to the great success was to release a follow up as soon as possible, and that's what the record company did. Already one year later in 2000 came the sophmore effort called "Sound Loaded" which is an perfect name cause that is basically what it is. More of the same that worked one year ago. Martin was still popular in 2000, mind you. However it sounds like alot of the songs were released in a very fast pace in order to content the audience that wasnted more of his Latin-Pop. "Sha Bangs" the big hit was just as corny as "Shake Your Bon Bon" and sounds quite simular aswell. "Loaded" also follow that trend, a latin-pop sound made for an english audience but neither good lyrics or that creative punch that it desperately would have needed. The best song of this album is a ballad in my oppionion. "Nobody Wants to Be Lonely" between Ricky and Christina Aguilera. Also a hit single. Those three were the only singles released, which may be strange considering there were countless of sinle releases from his debut album. The truth is that there aren't that many potential single hits on this album. Maybe "Come to Me" a decent midtempo but other then that there are few memorable songs here. Diane Warren also wrote a song for this album "The Truth" a powerballad which is ok. Then we have countless of Latin-Pop songs that are quite forgettable actually. In retrospect it feels obvious that this project was rushed and could have been better, but it doesn't take a genius to realize that the record company wanted to milk out as much money in his music as possible. "Sound Reloaded" is alright, but it doesn't offer much more then the three hit singles. If you like Ricky, check his debut album or his 2005 album "Life" instead.

Ricky's sophomore English album (sixth solo album overall) picks up where "Ricky Martin 1999" left off. The thick, slick production with aggressive beats work well with Ricky's voice. Songs like "Amor", "Saint Tropez", "Cambia La Piel" and "Jezabel" are where things gel together the best and he sounds assured. There are a few dull spots such as "If You Ever Saw Her" and the original version of "Nobody Wants to Be Lonely." It's a mystery why the massive hit duet version with Christina Aguliera wasn't included. It should have been included. Luckily, he projects enough charisma to make those moments listenable. Aside from that, there are enough good moments to please most Pop fans. The other two ballads "Come To Me" & "The Touch" revel Ricky's more sensitive side and are quite pleasant. This album is well suited to fans of Dance-Pop, Latin-Pop and Club/Dance. This album would not appeal to you if you don't like those styles.
Bummer---Barely Average.......2005-10-14
Well, I gave this CD its first spin after a two year absence of ANY Ricky Martin music in my life. After his 1999 self-title CD, I pretty much went head over heals for Ricky. When this CD came out in November of 2000 I was really excited. Upon first listening to it, I thought it was better than his 99 CD but no where near as good as Vuelve. It would take 2003's Almas Del Silencio to really wash way the bad taste in my mouth that this CD leaves.
As several folks know, Ricky was under pressure from his managers, producers and the record company to deliver a follow up to his 1999 CD. Sound Loaded is what we got. This album was obviously rushed and it sounds like it. Weak lyrics and over saturation of musical gimicks is utilzed to keep the 'Livin La Vida Loca' fever burning. Ricky's voice just sounds tired and worn out. It's easy to tell that he was way over due for a vacation.
There are a few standout tracks on the disc. 'Amor' by far out shines every song by a mile. Had Sound Loaded had more great tunes like 'Amor' on it, the CD would have been a hit. As it is, the CD is mediocre at best.
ricky.......2005-09-30
I am a fan of Ricky but not this album. I prefer him singing spanish instead of English. The only good part about the album is the salsa sounds.
Fun songs!.......2005-07-26
Great music! Love the beats! You can salsa all night & day long! Good cd!

Spanish versions of "She Bangs," "Come to Me," and "Loaded" are additions to the dozen cuts in English. --Rickey Wright

Sound Re-Done.......2007-02-15
Ricky Martin's eponymous debut album had sold really good in 1999 and there was alot of hype around him at the time. The best way to follow up to the great success was to release a follow up as soon as possible, and that's what the record company did. Already one year later in 2000 came the sophmore effort called "Sound Loaded" which is an perfect name cause that is basically what it is. More of the same that worked one year ago. Martin was still popular in 2000, mind you. However it sounds like alot of the songs were released in a very fast pace in order to content the audience that wasnted more of his Latin-Pop. "Sha Bangs" the big hit was just as corny as "Shake Your Bon Bon" and sounds quite simular aswell. "Loaded" also follow that trend, a latin-pop sound made for an english audience but neither good lyrics or that creative punch that it desperately would have needed. The best song of this album is a ballad in my oppionion. "Nobody Wants to Be Lonely" between Ricky and Christina Aguilera. Also a hit single. Those three were the only singles released, which may be strange considering there were countless of sinle releases from his debut album. The truth is that there aren't that many potential single hits on this album. Maybe "Come to Me" a decent midtempo but other then that there are few memorable songs here. Diane Warren also wrote a song for this album "The Truth" a powerballad which is ok. Then we have countless of Latin-Pop songs that are quite forgettable actually. In retrospect it feels obvious that this project was rushed and could have been better, but it doesn't take a genius to realize that the record company wanted to milk out as much money in his music as possible. "Sound Reloaded" is alright, but it doesn't offer much more then the three hit singles. If you like Ricky, check his debut album or his 2005 album "Life" instead.

Ricky's sophomore English album (sixth solo album overall) picks up where "Ricky Martin 1999" left off. The thick, slick production with aggressive beats work well with Ricky's voice. Songs like "Amor", "Saint Tropez", "Cambia La Piel" and "Jezabel" are where things gel together the best and he sounds assured. There are a few dull spots such as "If You Ever Saw Her" and the original version of "Nobody Wants to Be Lonely." It's a mystery why the massive hit duet version with Christina Aguliera wasn't included. It should have been included. Luckily, he projects enough charisma to make those moments listenable. Aside from that, there are enough good moments to please most Pop fans. The other two ballads "Come To Me" & "The Touch" revel Ricky's more sensitive side and are quite pleasant. This album is well suited to fans of Dance-Pop, Latin-Pop and Club/Dance. This album would not appeal to you if you don't like those styles.
Bummer---Barely Average.......2005-10-14
Well, I gave this CD its first spin after a two year absence of ANY Ricky Martin music in my life. After his 1999 self-title CD, I pretty much went head over heals for Ricky. When this CD came out in November of 2000 I was really excited. Upon first listening to it, I thought it was better than his 99 CD but no where near as good as Vuelve. It would take 2003's Almas Del Silencio to really wash way the bad taste in my mouth that this CD leaves.
As several folks know, Ricky was under pressure from his managers, producers and the record company to deliver a follow up to his 1999 CD. Sound Loaded is what we got. This album was obviously rushed and it sounds like it. Weak lyrics and over saturation of musical gimicks is utilzed to keep the 'Livin La Vida Loca' fever burning. Ricky's voice just sounds tired and worn out. It's easy to tell that he was way over due for a vacation.
There are a few standout tracks on the disc. 'Amor' by far out shines every song by a mile. Had Sound Loaded had more great tunes like 'Amor' on it, the CD would have been a hit. As it is, the CD is mediocre at best.

I am a fan of Ricky but not this album. I prefer him singing spanish instead of English. The only good part about the album is the salsa sounds.
Fun songs!.......2005-07-26
