There's a lot of good stuff on there. "Here Eye Come" is an absolute jam. The guitar lines are great, and I love the opening line as the first line on an album "Anticipation of what's to come..."

I still haven't listened to the whole thing. I tried once - but gave up about four tracks in. I found it very repetitive and bored

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

novabrkr	It's okay, but far from great. Maybe some of the tracks could have been just included on MPLSound ("Another Boy", for example). Some of them could have even been reworked into something that would have worked on Lotusflow3r. I haven't listened to it in a while though. I'll give it a spin tonight.

Kept Woman is an awesome song. And I actually prefer it to the Tamar version.

The album flows really nicely.

It was a hard album to finish and it was a bit boring, but this album is great at its core. Meaning that if Sade would have sung this album, I'd be in heaven. Bria can sing, but she's no vocalist and that is what this album requires.

99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment

The Tamar album was kind of disappointing to me. Prince up'd his game in the song-writing department for Bria's album. It may be the case that he had Tamar co-write a lot of her songs which decreased their quality whereas we know Prince wrote and did everything for Bria. Its a shame because Tamar has a great voice IMO.

Change it one more time..
