Offkey self
Her old songs will keep her legendary status.
The first two albums were amazing
This damn song. Amazing
The background vocalists slayed!
She was amazing to me when she first hit the scene

Back when she was being coached by Angie Stone.
This James Brown homage.

Her freshman and sophomore albums will forever be masterpieces.

LMAOOO I was waiting for this 😂
Her debut album is my fave

pretty much!!!! my favs!! she lost me after those ... her vocals weren't doin it for me anymore
The crazy thing is, the cracks and shit made her more raw to me..... there were instances of it on A Minor and they left them in and it added much more grit and realness to an album that already sounded street. But her voice otherwise still sounded decent so they were acceptable.
In the first verse of Why Do I Feel So Sad she cracks on "makes me wanna cry" but I love it
Why do people sleep on AS I AM???
Theeee MAGNUM OPUS

Yes, it felt really authentic. I also loved the production especially on the diary album, the instruments>>>>
I don't know if it had to do with Krucial..
As I am had a couple of nice songs, but it wasn't the same.
Not Kandi having a placement on the debut too
Let's talk about the situation

I thought I was the only one who didn't like the song :plzstop: I can't believe it was a hit. Girl on fire is also one of the songs that still makes me cringe.
I loved Unthinkable, Fire we make, Lesson learned..she still can make very good music but yeah :dead:

It really does. Like you'll never see me again (ALONE!). I believe the album leans more into pop/crossover so it makes sense while a lot black folks aren't crazy about. She pulled back on the street and hip hop influences.

In that case never mind :kii:
Her third album had some good songs but nothing like the first two when Angie Stone was coaching her. The quality was evident.
Its a cool, rainy Saturday in May ......... lemme justtt
