Nelly Furtado is back with a sexier, dance-floor sound, and the result is proving commercially potent - the Canadian singer has the new No. 1 album on the U.S. pop chart with her third CD, "Loose."
The album, which sold 219,000 copies in its first week in stores, opened strong thanks to "Promiscuous," a radio hit of the moment that benefited from the presence of Timbaland, who is on hand as a producer for 10 of the album's 13 tracks.
The album finds Furtado in her familiar mode of eclectic music styles: There's room enough on the CD for her to flirt with reggaeton, folk, pop and hip-hop and the credits include collaborators as far-flung as Colombian star Juanes and Coldplay's Chris Martin.
