I agree with your review 10000% (even on "Share My World"). I think Mary needs to stop trying to come up with a theme for each album and just do a solid and good album (like she did with The Breakthrough).

Do you think Kendu has anything to do with the downward spiral after Breakthrough?

YEP!

LOL. You know what, now that I think about it, it probably is Kendu thas causing her albums to get weaker and weaker.

But yeah, daPrettyman, Share My World is a personal classic. Glad to see someone else agrees, about that record. I'm playing "It's On" right now lol.

Share My World is definitely a great album. All the songs in there were in a cohesive fit! Nothing was out of the place. Even the interludes were top-notch. I definitely love the intro. Loved Mary's smug but ghetto fabulous nature back then. cool

She needs to stop chasing the latest sounds and be confident in the sound she helped make popular. I don't want to hear Mary's voice backed by a song that should be sung by Ciara or Rhiana or whatever third rate Beyonce act is around.

And I don't care if she is drama or drama free...just be u.

Totally agree. I hate all the collaborations she's forced to do too. Not necessary. I haven't bought anything new from MJB for a while, but I do like most of her older music.

This new album that is coming out in March, I'll avoid it if there is ANY collaboration lol I'm serious. And stop with the damn Bryan Michael Cox monotone ballads. She'll never have another "Be Without You"...EVER.

No it's not you. I saw what Bryan tried on Monica on YouTube and he just played that - three chords. lol

I don't think she will ever top "My life"

That may be in the top 3 of my personal favorite albums of all time.

I lost interest after that.

Nice songs here and there but nothing I liked as much as "my Life"
