Album Description
Unexpected is the third solo studio album by former Destiny's Child singer Michelle Williams released in 2008. It will be Williams' first full length contemporary R&B album, moving away from the gospel style of her previous efforts. The album's first single, "We Break the Dawn," was released in April 2008, with its second single being "The Greatest", chosen in favor over the Stargate-produced "Stop This Car."

that's Williams, Michelle is your on top! this artist truly has staying power in this industry. The only unexpected thing here is why this CD isn't as mainstream as one of her counter partner.


5 out of 5 stars This CD stays in my changer!   November 9, 2008

It's really a shame that this CD wasn't promoted effectively. This is a great CD with many potential Dance hits. I love Hello Heartbreak, Private Party, Lucky Girl, and Break the Dawn remix. Buy this CD, it's definitely worth the money, and request the songs from your local radio station, I have.

Michelle is a beautiful and talented woman. But I enjoyed her in the Gospel catagory. This album sound like the Eurpoean Sounds of the 1980's. It has no soul whatsoever. Please Michelle go back to Gospel.. That is were your talents really belong.

5 out of 5 stars A Satisfying Album!!!   November 5, 2008

I did not have high expectations for Michelle William's third solo CD. Her first two CD's were well intentional but overall underwhelming CD's that did showcased many of Michelle's weaknesses as a singer since she does not have a strong voice. While "Do You Know" was an overall better collection than "Heart To Yours", neither was highly repeated in my collections. So, I was not sure that I would have bought another Michelle Williams solo CD but after hearing "We Break The Dawn", I was hooked. So, the week this CD was released I bought when I finally found it available. This is the first CD that I have kept on repeat in my CD player in a while (probably since Kelly Clarkson's "My December"). The dance tracks are catchy without being repetitive and showcase Michelle's voice. The first single, "We Break The Dawn," remains a catchy track that is infectious with a memorable synth line throughout the song that sets up the mood. The remix is also very catchy without losing the essence of the song. The second single, "The Greatest", should have also been a huge hit for Michelle but it looks like it is going to die a fast death. Other strong songs on the album include "Hello Heartbreak," "Lucky Girl," "Stop This Car", "Unexpected," "Thank U," and "Too Young For Love." This may be the most satisfying solo CD from a member of Destiny's Child due to Michelle trying to do something different and it is a success. I only wish that this CD was properly promoted so other people will know how wonderful this CD truly is.
