It's because they had high expectation due to Mary and Puffy working again and they were disappointed. I really don't see what was the big deal. She wasn't depressed like she was during My Life, but they still wanted her to sing about her man doing her wrong and the likes. So called Mary J. stans hate when she is happy and singing more upbeat songs (which was what Puff was doing at the time). They are such manic depressants.

family affair is, like, the apotheosis of happiness. i don't think enough people get that song.

i do think because the early mary albums were so characterized by pain some people can't deal with the shift.

Been really loving E-Smoove's Dub Mix of "You Bring Me Joy." I put it up here the other day.

I more or less agree with your rankings here, but the Rihanna ones... not so much. Any chance of you linking that one too?
