minor victory @ b'day!
happy belated birthday to my aunt shelia back home in the ville. onward, y'all know how i feel about bouncy professionally... i have interest in the introspective person, not the bullshit performing persona siphoned to me in a tube that i should clamor over cause no female artist poses threat to her hyped reign.there's talk of constant disapproval of her current efforts due to the rushed production but can creativity which is relative truly be rushed?
though, i will agree that bouncy needs a break/ to get lost cause i'm over inundated... as a product she leaves a bad aftertaste sometimes but i digress. the only two artists i've ever waited long for, purchased, and loved was aaliyah and d'angelo... reasons implied!
well, B'day, though short, doesn't possess all the filler & fluff as dangerous ie. signs, yes, hiphopstar, how i like it... blah, blah, boring. to this day i wonder why i copped the joint 'cos beyond '03 DIL got no love. there's only 3 tracks i freeked with... me myself & i (for its storyline & storch's production), be with you (i'm a bootsy baby) & gift from virgo (shuggie is/was/always the shit & her thoughts on top of that composition- classic).
i admit that ring the alarm is kelis' schtick 7 years prior but the effort though b-rated is still slick ono me & i dig kitty kat, upgrade & green light. overall this album along with every other high-touted release just pays the bills.

As promised I have finally listend to a few tracks. As far as Bday in a whole I'm not sure i dig it. I only like a few tracks. Kitty KAt Freakum Dress, Upgrade U and Of course Suga Mama, but only becase i love the quote "Damn that was so good I wanna buy him a short set" .. Creative... As far a vocally she sounds great. Also you can hear throughout the music were she was influnced by Jay I love that too. I'm just more of a lyrical person today. I'm sure it will grow on me. top

I like B'Day! It is better than I expected. I didn't have the highest expectations for it. Kity Kat is my fav at the moment. Freakum Dress is my least favorite. And Resentment... the words to that song are so real. I freaking cried when i first heard it. The words were just way too close to home. You were right about this one.... top
