NEW TUNES: Solange - When I Get Home

I feel late n this just came out last Friday lol. I really like it smile. I especially enjoy Down With the Clique, Way to the Show, Stay Flo, but the whole thing is rather dope n the interludes don't really detract from that. I slept on (still sleeping actually, as I tried listening 2 it earlier n couldn't get thru whole thing) her last album n still play True every 1nce in a while. She pretty good on this 1 2 music. Any1 else peep it? It's on the YouTubes btw lurking.

For all time I am with you, you are with me.

Different strokes smile. Junie is bomb, thanks 4 your suggestion. I'll get back 2 ASATT someday soon, the first few songs (including Cranes) didn't move me, but maybe I'm missing something. This album just flows 4 me, I could listen 2 the whole thing all day touched.

For all time I am with you, you are with me.

Didnt like it much. Waaay to mellow. Sounds like a paint collage that is missing any bright colors. She already did the black pride stuff in the last album it seems like she has not moved on to another topic. I wanted to like it but not enough depth or musical significance. 5/10

There's literally ONE song on this record that discusses black pride (coincidentally, the "single"). If you're going to criticize work, at least show that you actually observed it.

and it's not as if BLACK PEOPLE need to move on from BLACK PRIDE. ever. As Solange herself said at the film's screening (while DEFENDING the album against criticisms of it NOT showcasing blackness as bluntly as her previous work), "Blackness will never go away. It’s who I am. It’s what I know. I’ll always be a black woman, and I’ll always create work from this black woman’s body. I will always be from the Third Ward where we had one of the first black banks in the country. We have SHAPE Center where I spent summer camps. I got to go to a black woman’s hair salon every day and hear the stories of women. This is who I am. I don’t have to say it or express it. It’s always who I am.”
