So Amazin' by Christina Milian

So Amazin' is the third studio album by American singer Christina Milian. The album, her first studio release since 2004's It's About Time, was released by Island Records on April 19, 2006 in Japan, on May 8 in Europe, and on May 16 in the United States. Unlike previous records, which had contributions from many producers, Milian wrote and produced So Amazin' primarily with hip hop producers Cool & Dre. During production, Milian was mentored by L.A. Reid and executive producer Jay-Z of Def Jam Recordings.The album's musical style is primarily urban and R&B, in contrast to the pop sounds of Milian's previous albums, a change suggested by Island Def Jam. Following criticism over her previous albums for a lack of consistency, Milian had ten of the album's tracks produced by Cool & Dre. Lyrically, the album was inspired by Milian's breakup with Nick Cannon. So Amazin' was completed within a three-month period, and Milian received writing credit for nine of the album's songs. The album debuted and peaked at number 11 on the US Billboard 200, and sold a total of 163,000 copies. Internationally, the album charted in the United Kingdom, France and Switzerland. The album's only single, "Say I", featuring rapper Jeezy, saw peak positions of number four in the UK, and number 21 in the United States. The critical response to So Amazin' was mixed. The album's production and "Say I" were generally praised, while several critics did not feel that the album showcased Milian's personality. Two weeks after the release of So Amazin', Milian was dropped from Island Def Jam Records.
