Pulled the trigger on "Vivrant Thing." May be the only time I've ever not voted for Erykah when she's on the ballot.

i could go for most of these really but i'm voting "got til it's gone" because the weather achieved in that track is something special, i think.

like every element of the song seems transmitted from a distance? janet's voice, the sample, the bass. the only thing immediate and intimate is the rhodes which is basically predicting voodoo

I dunno, I'd say Janet's voice sounds very intimate (but not immediate) on that song, like she's telling you a secret.

Listening to the last two minutes of "Drop" and wondering how I didn't vote that.

i have a hard time thinking of "Drop" as anything but an annoying sample with a schticky video

tbf music video never gets to the song's denouement.

So many good choices, but in the end nothing else hits me quite like Didn't Cha Know.
and I think Let's Ride may be the best of those 1st wave of Tip solo singles. As great as the other 2 are, I don't think that big mainstream club bangerz were really the best look for a Q-Tip.

I heart the "Drop" video--that's beautiful schtick.
