Please Music God, let Kanye's album be the bomb.  |
Janet- Trust me, you didn't miss much!
Mariah- was good, but Emancipation was much better
Usher- I thought it was ok, but not as good as Confessions
I heard that Kanye will sing more than rap on this CD. If it's true, then I'm scared!

I didn't buy Beyonce's album after hearing a little sample from my friends. I expected her to bring it this album, with more ballads and "real music." I'm sick of the pop sound. C'mon B, you're older and married now. Sing like it. Do you all agree?
Oh, I can't stop listening to Sweetest Love by Robin Thicke! I love that song.

100%. I really want her to do a mature album, more in the vain of MJB. Beyonce isn't evolving musically.

I am now listening to the Sasha CD. Some of the songs on this one and the I Am CD sound like leftover Rhianna songs. The CDs are OK, but I don't see myself bumping them like BDay or Dangerously In Love.

If Kanye falls flat on his face with this one, his next album will be out in the summer (hopefully it will be the Get A Job album).

Robin's album is DA BOMB.

YES!!! I think B is trying to continue to appeal to that single/teeny crowd. The fact is, if she takes a risk and tries to create songs "we" will enjoy, that may be a challenge for her and she's not comfortable with that. DIL had her on the right track. She's about shaking that azz, so that's where her music is relatively speaking. LOL Shaking that azz isn't going to always be a priority for some. (HA!)
Maybe it is Get Me Bodied. However, it's something about the lyrics that remind me of Upgrade U.  I think it's agreed that it seems recycled.
I'm not really a B fan, but I thought once she left DC, got older, became hitched her music would grow. She needs to take a few lessons from MJB.
