I gotta be honest though...this album is not quite as good as Mama's gun or 4WW...I love that it's funkier, but Out My Mind Just In Time clinches it... it kinda pales in comparison to Green Eyes...I still love you Erykah!!!

i never feel like listening to 'out my mind', it's nice but kinda boring. i'll give it some more shots but i was hoping for more since i've really liked what i've heard from georgia ann muldrow, beat-wise.

So weird. It's one of the two tracks on the album I can't skip over when listening on random.

i still like the album though...half awesome + half okay = very good. Just like everybody's been saying...

yes
wow this album is a dissapointment. so half hearted. sounds like shes barely bothered. nice grooves but NO songs. not even the green eyes-ish closer is that good. this is like an album of outtakes. is she trying to get out of her contract or something? cos this seems like one of those albums.

theres some nice moments, some cool lines here and there, some nice melodies, but she sounds like she can barely be arsed to get through this.

Badu/N*E*R*D/Monae sounds like an awesome show, but no way I'm paying that much money.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 5 May 2010 20:09 (sixteen years ago)
No MTL, Toronto or any East Coast of Canada shows. New York or Boston are my best (not good at all) options.

I think "Turn Me Away" is so bubbly and happy that it will be one of those songs that can never NOT put me in a good mood.

‘This Ain't A Love Song’? Too fucking right. You cunts couldn't write a love song. It's too serious for you.
what did bon jovi ever do to you?!
― Greatest contributor: (history mayne), Monday, 10 May 2010 11:20 (sixteen years ago)
I was referring to Scouting For Girls. On a sidetrack - Bon Jovi's Greatest Hits was the only CD (apart from The Best Of Sting) that my local poolhall used to play so consequently in the 2 years where I pretty much did nothing else with my time I picked up a fascination, then fatigue, then finally detestation of The Jovi. A process that happened alot quicker with Sting i might add.

"20 Feet Tall" is such an inspiring song imo.

"20 Ft Tall" and Damian Marley/Nas's "Strong Will Continue" are my big inspirational songs this year.
― Mordy, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 15:31 (sixteen years ago)
i love "20 feet tall" but "jump up in the air" is my go-get-em inspirational-motivational erykah track of choice this year.

I don't think the chappelle standup actually happened?? I seem to recall that it was dismissed as a rumor that got out of hand.
