Editorial Review:With Now 17 the producers of this chart-busting series have accepted, to their credit, a truism: You can't please 'em all. That accounts for the opposite-ends-of-the-genre-spectrum inclusiveness of the disc, and also for the lion's share of its appeal. Like hip-hop but hate country? Count yourself in, courtesy of Terror Squad ("Lean Back"), J-Kwon ("You & Me"), and the Beastie Boys ("Ch-Check It Out"), or out, owing to Gretchen Wilson ("Here for the Party") and Keith Urban ("Days Go By"). Ditto for girl pop (Ashlee Simpson's "Pieces of Me," Jessica Simpson's "Angels") and hard rock (Crossfade's "Cold")--take it or leave it or, if you're truly well-rounded, love it, track for track. With its finger directly on the pulse of what passes for pop in 2004, 17 poses its share of challenges--the Switchfoot crowd doesn't lend itself to being lumped together with JoJo's posse--but it skillfully folds the whole package into a better than palatable mix aimed directly at the fun-loving and the musically tolerant. Sensible sequencing (rap leads to pure pop leads to rock leads to country) seals the deal, so that all you're left wondering is, What happened to Hoobastank? --Tammy La Gorce

I ordered this CD because it had "Let's Get It Started" by the Black Eyed Peas on it. I wanted it for Quantum Learning. Some of the songs aren't appropriate for my use because of mature themes and language. I could use some of them however.

The 17th 'Now!' disc presents a few problems...namely in the rap area, where three of the songs sound as if they have the same beat...those three songs being Lil' Flips 'Sunshine', J-Kwon's 'You & Me' and Jadakiss's 'Why?', Jada's taking the crown as the better of the three. Those few flops aside, this album does sport 'Lean Back' which is one of the coolest rap songs in a long time, and yes there is Beastie Boys returning to the game with 'Ch-Check it Out' and they do a pretty good job at that. ...

I love this CD! Love it, love it, love it! I will review each song individually:
1. Black Eyed Peas-Let's Get It Started: I like this song, but it's been way overplayed. Rating: B+
2. Terror Squad-Lean Back: I love this song. Great beat and the appearance of Fat Joe is a perfect selection. Rating: A
3. Ciara-Goodies: Petey Pablo was okay, but I don't like Ciara very much. Rating: B-(Without the Petey Pablo part: C-)
4. Houston-I Like That: Good beat ... Read More
