[edit] Album information

The album's working title, Call Me Jennifer, was a response to the "J.Lo" moniker which Lopez claims gave her an unfair reputation as an over-the-top diva. The eventual title was chosen as an attempt to start a new beginning after the "Bennifer" fall-out and the immense critical and commercial failure of the 2003 film Gigli. The music itself is standard Lopez fare, '80s-tinged urban pop and funk combined with orchestral ballads. Her current husband, Marc Anthony, co-wrote and co-produced one of the album's tracks, "(Can't Believe) This Is Me".

Rebirth was released in a DualDisc format, which contains the album in enhanced stereo, the "Get Right" music video, the "Get Right" remix music video featuring rapper Fabolous, and a short documentary on the recording of the album, originally shot by acclaimed director D. A. Pennebaker, who also shot Bob Dylan's 1967 Dont Look Back.

[edit] Chart performance

The album debuted at number two on the U.S. Billboard 200 the week of March 19, 2005 (behind 50 Cent's The Massacre) selling 261,000 copies.[1] The album was proclaimed as a commercial failure, selling just 731,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan,[2] but still earned a platinum certification by the RIAA. Nonetheless the album enjoyed international success, especially in Europe, reaching the top spot in the Netherlands and Switzerland; the top five in Italy, Spain, Germany, Austria, Belgium, and Hungary; and the top ten in the United Kingdom, France, Ireland, and Poland. Furthermore, it became Lopez's most successful album in Japan when it peaked at number three, selling more than 200,000 copies. Rebirth was also Turkey's best-selling foreign-language album in 2005.[3] Because of the humble sales and the international bomb of the second single "Hold You Down", the foreseen release of the song "Cherry Pie" as the third single had been scrapped. Worldwide, the album sold around two million copies. Rebirth was listed as one of the twenty best albums of 2005 by the Brazilian website Canal Pop.[4]
