I'm going to have to say that my favorite album of 2009 would have to be the release of Exposed by Kristinia DeBarge. At first I didn't like any song other than Goodbye until I gave the album a few listens. Obviously it was one of those albums for me that grew to be more liked the more you listened to it. Her range of vocals in this album is rather impressive considering she premiered on American Juniors and seemed to have disappeared for a short time then suddenly, she releases a single off her soon to come album that really hit home and introduced a wide variety of listeners.
My favorite tracks off the album would have to be Goodbye, of course, Sabotage, and Powerless. I really wasn't a fan of R&B, however, until I listened to this album. Of course, my favorites are more upbeat titles of the album, but the rest of the album I enjoy as well. Especially Died in Your Eyes and Doesn't Everybody Want to Fall in Love, which do a compliment to her range in vocals.
Shame her music videos aren't as good as her singles, though. (Namely the Goodbye music video, which was just horrible, in my opinion)
