When I put it in the CD player I was in love with the cd. From the melodies to mood changes in the songs Musiq truly showed his artistry. My favorite tracks 1,4 and 9.if you're debating on whether you should buy the cd ... You should pick up a copy. Support this soulful singer. R&B is not dead.
This was a great album and perhaps some of her best work!!! I have been a K Michelle fan for a while and have purchased all of her CDs. Not sure how she changed her formula for this album but whatever she did works!!! All of the songs have a soulful sweetness to them!!! This is definitely an album you can listen to all day and not get tired of it!!! Kudos K!!! Excellent job!!! Keep making hits!!
Wow. This may be his best body of work since Back at One. Not to say he did not have several standouts albums and records since that time, but as a whole album, this album is very cohesive. His last 2 albums, More Than Words and Just Me seemed more like a collection of songwriter demo's with a few great songs sprinkled within. On Better, Brian took all of his influences (past and present) and melded them into something wholly unique. His production chops have increased substantially. Gone are the stripped down, demo like programmed songs on his last 2 records. Nearly every track on Better uses live instrumentation. The song writing is fresh too. He could have went back to his comfort zone and gave us a bunch of piano ballads with layers of intricate background vocals. Instead, these songs lean heavily on his lead vocal almost like a very polished and well produced live album. As fans of Brian we tend to want what initially drew us to him: Piano Ballads, Crazy Stevie Wonder-like vocal gymnastics and family friendly lyrics. I'm glad that Brian was brave enough to give us an "evolution" on this record. He sounds inspired again and it will be interesting to see what he comes up with next.
What can I say about this album other than Ms Tweet put her FOOT into this CD! 3 words: Production, Production, Production!!!!!!! So many albums now, no matter if hip hop, R&B, soul, pop, etc lack consistency of the production on an album. I'm not saying that every song needs to sound alike on an album, but it's nice to have a CD where you can listen from start to finish and it all sounds consistent, like every song belongs on the album. THIS, ladies and gentlemen is one of those CDs, where it is a truly cohesive album. "Charlene" features many songs with acoustic guitars and strong instrumental elements. With Tweet's sweet, soothing, soulful, light voice on top of the music, it's divine. If you're looking for an R&B soul album that is reminiscent of R&B CDs from the mid- to late 90s but still current, look no further than this album. This is truly a masterpiece!
Capture TV signals 45 miles or more from the tower with this RCA indoor antenna. Its SmartBoost technology amplifies and filters signals for optimal picture quality, even for 4K and 1080 HDTV programs. The separate flat-panel UHF and VHF dipole elements of this RCA indoor antenna receive the full range of broadcast TV stations.
I decided to cancel cable because I really only watch the main channels (CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS). The reception with this RCA Indoor Amplified TV Antenna was great, and I actually got about 30 channels; but some were duplicates and many in Spanish (I just speak English). The unit has a sleek and modern look, not the old-fashioned 'bunny ears.' I've done HOURS of research on antennas, and trust me, if you want to save time, just go ahead and buy this one.
I've always been a Rihanna fan but at some point, in the last few years, I grew tired of the same old formula. Sure, each album always had some killer songs but they seemed to be all over the place. This album is SO MUCH BETTER. I don't know if it's because Rihanna is more in control of her music and she finally gave herself the time to make the record she wanted to do, but I love the different sound, the lyrics, everything. If this album means the beginning of a new era for Rihanna, I'm all in.

This live project was long over due for Lalah. There is nothing bad about it. If you've never had the opportunity to see her live in concert, then you will get that experience with this cd. As a bonus, you get new material along with the live versions of some of your favorites. Lalah voice is in a class that not many occupy. She deserves the support on this project, and hopefully the industry will recognize it come GRAMMY season. You will not regret this cd at all.
This is an outstanding and "refreshing" CD. Tamia'

I absolutely love Tamia. She is so talented and has an amazing voice. Tamia does a wonderful job keeping this project fresh. Love Life is another great addition to my Tamia collection. Each tune gives you something different, and in my mind, the concepts, or the way some tracks are put together is fresh. It doesn’t sound like everyone else in the R and B area at this time it seems everyone has the same sound, or similar... I hate that she is not more mainstream but I love that she keeps coming back time and time again delivering great music. This is one you’ll enjoy listening to over and over.
Rico Love's major label debut album, Turn The Lights On, includes the single Somebody Else. Rico has achieved huge success as a producer and songwriter. Rico love delivers smooth harmonizing symphonic melodies to the listener ears yet the lyrics lack in some regards. Overall this CD has its moments, but I didn't like the direction of this CD.
