Welcome to Bratzline! Wazz up? This week, Justin joins us once again to discuss the third Bratz CD, Bratz Forever Diamondz! The soundtrack following the Bratz Passion 4 Fashion Diamondz movie, the Forever Diamondz CD is a favourite amongst Bratz fans, and for good reason (spoilers: it's full of bangers)!

We break each song down track by track, and debate which songs shine bright and which ones are a couple diamonds in the rough. I hope you guys enjoy! Thank you so much to Justin for coming on!
