I'm looking forward to Metallica's (curiosity), GnR's Chinese Democracy (curiosity as well) and Alice in Chains' new one and Prince's, of course.

EDIT: Regarding the Prince thing, I have no more info than any of you, but common sense tells me he'll come out with something....

GREAT album.

"One Pure Thought" has been one of my favorite songs lately. Really awesome song.

I always hear "Ready For The Floor" when I go out these days.

It looks like Erykah Badu examining the results of her "Michael Jackson" surgery for the first time.

Seriously, it's not really that bad.

I can't wait for Dre's album. It'a a long time coming. As well as Mariah's and Whitney's albums. I love them both. Want to marry them but that's another story. Also like to mention that both Big Boi's and Andre 3000's solo albums will be out in the summer and fall respectively.

Peace and be wild!

I am looking forward to....

Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple in April

K-O's - Souls on Ice (no confirmed date yet)

The Music - (They have a new album recorded and mixed. They are doing some low key club dates in England and the album should be released very soon.)


Later

I'm not, I'm not gonna just sit here
and let this go to waste
watching the clock tick on my life
This time, this times gonna be different
'cause I know what I want
Listing the people I'm taking down
This is what I'm fighting for.

This is looking to be a big year for me buying CD's again. I'm looking forward to:

Janet Jackson - next week
Erykah Badu - next week
Mariah Carey - April
Madonna (I may dog her but I will buy the CD) - April
Prince (if he drops a new CD) - sometime in 2008
I might get the new Snoop Dogg CD in March too.

Prince.org is a cemetery where folks mourn Prince instead of celebrate him and his music. Last time I checked, Prince isn't dead yet.
