Thanks Triv! Love her everything!

After decades, she sounds just as good as she ever has, just a beautiful talent/soul.

If the album is anything like the single, I think we are in for a treat.

Jilly and her band killing that tiny desk!

Haven't had a chance to check out the whole album yet but I like what I've heard so far, including Norfside- Jilly rapping over a DJ Premier beat!

I gave the album a solid listen on the speakers the other day, it didn't hit me hard like some of her other projects but it was enjoyable and experimental for her. I'm glad she's trying new things.

I had the same initial reaction. I have always appreciatived that she is so artistic and creative. Nevertheless, that doesn't make her consistently accessible, which is fine. I listend to the album once, plan to do it a 2nd time, and then hopefully find enough cuts to put as part of a playlist.

It was just okay for me. Maybe two of three tracks really caught my ear. The rest of it was just a bunch of filler.
