Shake It Up - The Album

Kizzy is such a huge fan of the Disney Channel TV shows including Shake it Up starring Bella Thorn and Zendaya.  The show follows best friends CeCe and Rocky as they balance school, boys and family with  dancing on a local TV show, Shake It Up Chicago.  Every episode is filled with music and dancing which Kizzy really enjoys.  When we were offered the chance to review the brand new Disney soundtrack album "I <3 Dance" I knew that Kizzy would absolutely love it.  I was not wrong!  It now happily resides on her iPod and she sings along and dances around the living room!

The seventeen track CD features a host of other Disney Channel favourites such as Selena Gomez, who performs a remix of the theme song, and Bridgit Mendler,who sings We're Dancing.  The album features a host of different styles from disco, R&B, rapping to electro pop, which keeps it fresh and interesting to listen to.  It has a very young and funky vibe that will appeal to the tween market.

The soundtrack is as upbeat as the show itself and will get any fan up and moving.  Kizzy likes Contagious Love by Bella Thorn and Zendaya which features a rap and a very catchy chorus, which has everyone singing along (including me!). The Olivia Holt cover of These Boots Are Made For Walking got me up and singing along, much to the amusement of the kids!  It's all good fun, frothy and high energy.
