Alicia and her damn verbose album titles lol she should've called this "The Element of Boredom".

Aside from Empire State Of Mind, this girl could drive sleeping pills outta the business.


Ok, I had to laugh. lol

Freedom isn't an element. An element is a rather clearly distinguishable entity - such as a string arrangement or a snare drum hit - whereas "freedom" especially in the context of music is an attribute that you have to project to the artwork on a more subjective level. Rather, freedom resists this type of classification and demands a more constant, open-ended reflection. To say that freedom is an element goes against its own very own principle to even manifest itself on the level of artworks.

Philosophy major in the house.

I also want to see more of her in a short skirt.

Also boots.


One more for the road. lol You are funny!

That's some retarded hideous shit. The headpiece looks cheap (which I'm sure they didn't intend, but hello - we see the fabric between the jewels!), the dove placement is odd, what's the crinkled shit between her & the doves?? It's just awful, down to the colors! confused

It's like she's trying to be Nona Hendryx with the headpiece and Marilyn Monroe with the dress. confused

FAIL! lol

The headpiece is horrendous. It looks like a space-gadget. I get alien vibes from it even though I know that's not what she's trying to convey. And the pose is awful, she's too stiff & masculine when she's trying to be angelic & feminine.

wel she's not AC/DC...she's an R&B artist...


R&B IS intersting,,,,,and I'm not talking about microwave popcorn flavor-of-the-month singers, I'm talking about the indie ones who actually take a chance, switch it up and develop.

I don't hear ANY originality or feel anything from this woman,,,,,AT ALL.

,,,,,and I've been waiting for her to change my mind shrug

I want to really like her but her albums are not too experiemental for me kind of in the same vein how I feel about John Legend and India.Arie...and other real soul artists. I like the Singles but the albums just make me fall asleep.

LOL!! This was sooo the cover. That head thing looks like something I've seen her wear...it's her style. Glad she's changing it, though.

Liked the first two albums. The third was a real disappointment... I won't listen to a fourth... Rather hear some Mary J. Blige--esp. the old stuff! smile

The second single from the new album.

Come on Alicia! confused What is this? She's not jammin' like she used to, and is really making herself seem trite with that first single. I really hope the rest of the tracks are better. neutral
