Her "Worldwide Underground" in all it's rawness was more put together than this record. I listened to it and it's BAD. "Honey" which I bet wasn't even supposed to be on the album, is like a Godsend, because the rest of the LP are tracks that have that "UNFINISHED" feeling to them. It's like she got high (and she mentions smoking trees in one of the songs...actually two) she got high and just let the loop/reel record. It's TOO out there, beyond me. Hardly structured at all. Or it sounds that way to me. Still, I love her, but I'm not really feeling this 9.99 purchase, nor am I wholly feeling Janet's album. There's about 3/4 tracks that I like...the rest I can take it or leave it. @ AllICanSay,’

I listen to them all from 3 Doors Down to Curtis Mayfield to John Coltrane (my favorite jazz musician) to Faith Hill back to Erykah. I am an equal opportunity listener. I just don't like this CD. @ Abhor its not about the category of music its what I like and this new CD is not it for me.

I like Erykah and all but her new album is not that good. Janet on the other hand did an amazing job on Discipline. If you buy the album make sure you listen to the title track called Discipline which is track #20. That track alone crushes all the R&B competition. Just take a listen.

She never claimed to be "neo-soul" that term was made up to categorize artists and profit off of it. @ #25 if you you’re a fan like you say you are then you would know that the Neo-Soul Erykah that you were hoping for was never what she wanted to be.

I was sitting on pins and needles awaiting her new release. I ripped off the plastic befor I even got out of the store. All of this just to get stuck in the a$$ with those pins and needles. Everyone was saying she is coming hard you will fall in-love with her all over again. NOT!!!!! I was hoping for an updated version of the old. Not what I got at all. Its alot of talking over heavy bass I could barely understand what the hell she was saying. Only two songs was the Erykah I remember and HONEY isn't even on the CD. I'm so upset that I want my money back!!! Jill Scott and Emily King will remain heavy in rotation. It won't prevent me from buying future stuff from, I just now know to go to FYE or one of the major book stores and listen first. Erykah I will love you til' the end of time but, just give us the 'you' back!!!!!! OK, I am a die heart Erykah fan. I was sitting on pins and needles awaiting her new release.

I love Erykah but this CD is not good at all. I thought she was going to come better. The tracks are mostly beats,mixes and talking. I only like two songs. Janet has really stepped her game up but I supported both ladies so good luck girls! I purchased both CD’s and Janet’s is fiyah!!!! I love Erykah but this CD is not good at all.

I mean if Jill Scott's album can move 250k units in the first week I'm sure Erykah will have no problem I really haven’t been feeling Erykah for some time now…but I do think she stands a good chance of coming in @ #2.

I have a love/hate relationship with alot of music today and Erykah is a breath of fresh air that would make me more forgiving of the b.s because of a few slips in the cracks..
