Tim, what do you think of the Lil Jon track? I like that he's continued working outside his popular template on the downlow. I don't know how i feel about the track though.

Yeah this is spot on. It combines with her unusually vivid and visual lyrics to make her songs seem very filmic; and then Paul Poli's production is so frequently cinematic. My favourite line may still be the one that Matt quotes in his article from "Backstroke": "picture me in one of those two-seater things, top down so thoughts of you are in the breeze, and the wind, and the wind, and the wind is in my hair..."
But I also love the opening lines in "For A Lifetime": "you give and you give, but you never seem to get back in return/what you give, till your heart's a thirsty third-degree burns."

All of this is in contrast to the sophisticated, slightly hazy, evening-dress-and-glass-of-wine image which Teedra projects. The effect is rather like Sade brought suddenly into really sharp focus.
― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 11:09 (nineteen years ago) link
OTM. I knew you would like this album Alex. It engages the same pleasure receptors in my brains as are engaged by all the stuff we both like.
― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 12:23 (nineteen years ago) link
It's why I bought it actually, the things you said you liked about it are the same things that are present in everything we both like.

also, may i suggest rashaan patterson's After Hours, specifically "So Hot", which i've said elsewhere is the best thing i've heard so far this year.

they're singing does seems similar though in that they both have a remarkable clarity in their voices
― prolego, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:42 (eleven years ago) link
^ yes. it's also true what lex said about the songwriting but you can also hear little moments where the capabilities of their voices converge and theyre just alike
seems very obviously an album katy has been karaokeing since forever
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:45 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah but Katy B is a boring, middle of the road Noxzema girl pop singer, while Teedra Moses is, you know, interesting and talented

do i have to break out snoop.gif for the second time today?

yeah guess she can't push the envelope to its very bleeding edge like miguel does every single time huh
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:49 (eleven years ago) link
i was just about to type almost exactly that sentence except with grimes, though miguel works too
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:51 (eleven years ago) link
hahaha, ok, I'll back down from the Katy B bashing. I shouldn't try to troll too hard about an artist I clearly don't understand (and probably wasn't meant to understand) anyway.
― Evan R, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:53 (eleven years ago) link
miguel is amazing tho. please leave the playing yourselves to evan.
― TALiB KWELi SODMG (The Reverend), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:54 (eleven years ago) link
girl u know i love miguel, doesnt change the fact that what evan said about him was snoopgif-worthy
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:57 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, I would hate to see my precious miguel/grimes get caught in the crossfire because of my own impudence... snoop.gif me, but let the music go free

That Teairra Marí album is really nice; definitely going to order one of the $0.24 used copies of it from Amazon

And how do I always forget how amazing Complex Simplicity is?
― My Whole Existence Is Flan (Old Lunch), Thursday, 7 April 2016 17:40 (seven years ago) link
15th anniversary edition of Complex Simplicity is out, with some added tracks. It’s on Spotify as well, from where the original album has been absent for a long time, at least where I live.https://ratedrnb.com/2019/09/teedra-moses-releases-15th-anniversary-edition-of-complex-simplicity/
She’s doing a tour in the US right now and will also be doing a couple of shows in the UK in February.
― breastcrawl, Sunday, 29 September 2019 10:03 (four years ago) link
honestly found it hard to get enthusiastic about most of her post-complex simplicity material but "make me" appeared in my release radar this morning and sounds great:
