I don't understand why so many "fans" don't like his new music. To me it is as good as his eighties material. By that I'm not saying its all like his eighties music. Of course through a thirty two year career his sound has changed a lot. I still look foward to every release just like I did when I was 12.

The only difference now is information is easier to get. I can't imagine no Rainbow Children or Lotus Flower. Dance 4 Me is a classic through and through.

Dance 4 Me is a classic??? In your world/mind or in the real world?

Dance 4 Me is classic. If you had a time traveling delorean, and you replaced Hot Thing with Dance 4 Me, no one would know the difference.

It's a grower - sadly it had to make up ground with me before I'd even heard it properly because I saw the video for that horrendous, shitty remix of it on here

His music has gotten better for those of us who write music! It has gone from grade school to College level!

Really? for me at times it's gone from finely crafted marble statues to Lego ...bolt on drum machine, hamfisted rhymes (how many tines have you heard him rhyme right, night or tight with a'ight), multiple layers have gone in favour of clunkiness

What's got more professional about it then because, not being in that circle I don't perhaps understand
