Wondered when she’d break out the CUM VOICE

 

[Pipo]

I didn't know Jam & Lewis weren't on 20YO at all. plenty of it sounded exactly like them!

Ok so Wikipedia says they made 3(!) interludes, 3 album tracks and one bonus track. They also get a small co-writing credit (as in being placed last after 4 songwriters) in a couple of other tracks. Dupri appears as the first one in the rest of the tracks (including all 3 singles), gets a co-producer credit everywhere and as an executive producer. SHAMELESS.

I am at a loss of words with "Discipline"

 

[Jark]

I really like the title track. it's quite MAUDLIN and certainly not SEXY by any recognised definition of the word but it's a definite VIBE.

I will text all of the lyrics verbatim to Gangsta Nancy Lam in about 2 hours.

Dupri also appears to be the executive producer for this album. I cannot stand his CONCEITED ASS.

would you rather a male vocal version?

I think "daddy" is a bit of a PUSH

“I NEED SOME DISCIPLINE TONIGHT” is a good refrain.

I haven't even bothered to rate it past Greatest X. Good riddance.

It's by no means her worst album since it contains at least 5 great songs but omg at the whole package, utter DRECK.

 

[Jark]

Curtains is a nice PEPPY CLOSER. love the splashes of BRASS on the chorus.

7.8/10

probably the most solid JANFT album of '00s, maybe aside from Damita Jo. the ballads are as dated now as they were then but the good bits have aged really well.

STICK AROUND FOR A BONUS!

 

[jivafox]

“Curtains” wants to be interesting but it’s like she’s keeping all the good stuff...backstage

 

[Jark]

 

[jivafox]

Oh is Let Me Know a bonus?

 

[Jark]

Let Me Know is such a BOP!

welcome... to fantasies FULFILLED

OUTSTANDING first third, DREADFUL second third, PLEASANT albeit uninteresting closing third. As always, would have preferred a much tighter 10 track affair. Higher highs than Damita Jo for sure, but less consistent.

every single one of your posts in this thread has had me GIGGLING like... Janet Jackson.

 

[Pipo]

the Ralphi Rosario Remix of Feedback started playing now

the BOPPERY

 

[POP!]

"Let Me Know" is very cute and breezy albeit a bit repetitive, could have easily slid in the middle section at the expense of any of the three shit tracks!

08 Let Me Know

 

[Jark]

THANKS FOR JOINING GIRLS.

20YO next time?

No Discipline outtakes from Ms. @Pipo ? SAD!
