i fucking live for that breakdown. "1-2-1-2-3-4"
IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL. I GET CHILLS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT. I SO HOPE THAT SONG MAKES IT ON THE NEXT SETLIST OF THE NEXT SHOW I SEE!!!!! It's the absolute highlight of the album. I wish she would do an entire album of down tempo, keyboard-heavy, jazzy tracks, even more mellow than Baduizm.

i stay woke

I wasn't sure about it at first. To me, there are too many song ideas cut and pasted together with people talking over them, instead of actual full-fledged songs, for me to like it.

But I kept returning to it. And I think I'm actually kind of blown away by it now. It's a complete and utter mess, and that's what's so fantastic about it, because it still holds your attention and tries to tell you something through all the clutter.

I cant speak for anyone else on this thread..But, I can tell you...
If you were to pick up a handful of albums you would see where her whole vibe comes from..and If you are anything like me..You would Rock those before hers !

I think that was maybe true for a while. But with Scarlet's Walk and especially American Doll Posse, there's a lot for the casual fans to sink their teeth into. They're immediate records too - a lot to appreciate up front.

I've never smoked anything -- ever -- and I'm loving it.

I disagree. to me it could have needed some editing or dropping a track here and there, but overall I enjoy most parts of it very much.

hey, to each his own

i'm gonna put a voodoo curse on all you haters!

It's much better than a lot of that plastic shit thats out now!

You know I ain't a hater, punk.

Hell Prince has like 30 albums and I don't like a few. Does that make me a hater?

GO MAKE ME A SANDWICH, NOW!

I'm not into dudes this week.

I'm late to this conversation but.....









How the hell you CAN'T love the Erykah album is beyond me. I mean, i guess you either get good music or you don't.

And again, (IT'S LIGHTYEARS BETTER THAN PLANET EARTH).

Dewrede said:

Hell no. It's WACK.

Graycap23 said:

ok

Dewrede said:

Yes but more than that, are her lyrics to her songs.

Bag Lady makes me cry.

Thanks for having the cojones to be HONEST about her!! I held on the Erykah train for along time and finally fell off with this record..did not do a thing for me.

Just me...
