Let’s face it, Hilary Duff clearly doesn’t warrant a second compilation release, but in order to get out of her contract with Hollywood Records, she’s decided to do just that! And with this offering, we’re treated to two new songs, as well as three remixes.
The collection, which debuted at a staggering #125 on the Billboard charts in America, starts off with a bang, opening with Duff’s latest single, “Reach Out.” The hard, pounding beats and non-stop Depeche Modeness of it all makes it an instant winner in my book. I… Read more »

I was originally going to post a Katy Perry track, but then I saw this was sitting on my desktop and I decided this needed to come first.
