And then ..... the music ... this WITCH .... Lord please forgive me ....

i didnt have that same experience. back then  would cop the bootlegs, didn't even know what I was doing didn't help the artists :stressed: Just faded ass paper cover and no wrap, blank. disc and a mixtape song that would pop up as "Signs" was fading into the next song.

but yea this was everything

that artwork could have EASILY been late, too, considering the time period and the group she'd just left for the first time. Its crazy how they
literally NAILED every single thing she did and put out at that time. All pivotal, imperative things that helped lead her to where she is now

It's as if Matthew had been planning it for 10 years :dead:

Literally the best debut roll out I've ever seen besides Ashanti tbh
And where to find a smash hit like that right out the gate?!

That's still her most recognizable song besides Irr' and Single Ladies imo

Yea this era changed the game. A lot of female artists started to switch things up after Beyonce  dropped her 1st album. Labels wanted their acts to be more like her to compete with her, just like they did with Xtina, Jessica Simpson, Pink, Mandy Moore, etc after Britney dropped her 1st album. Even Ashanti's next album she hired 4 dancers and tried to give choreo on Only U. :kii: Destiny was fulfilled indeed. "Destiny would have only just one child" - Debra Wilson
