Most of the songs are like poems and the lyrics are repeated over and over. This is her first album release and although I can connect with the songs on another level I honestly feel that she should have waited a bit more. I have been a fan of Jhene for 5+ years way before some people even knew who she was, and all the free music that she had released was the best music I had ever heard, and this was way before the label. Jhene Aiko is living proof of that, and I never stop talking about her to family, friends, and just about anyone who will listen. If I've learned anything in my lifetime it's never say never. But, for me, Jhene Aiko is my new number one, and probably always will be. I know there have been so many great artists out there, Luther Vandross, Frank Sinatra, Neil Diamond, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera, Adele, Sade, Miles Davis, Bob James, Jeff Lorber, and so, so many more. (lol) One would think I'd be ready to listen to someone else for a bit, but not yet. No other artist has ever come remotely close to achieving that!!!! I'm still wondering when her disc is coming out of my player for a while. I'm in my vehicle six days a week, and her music hasn't left my cd player since March of this year, when I first heard her. And, don't let the soothing voice fool you, because she is a very good vocalist. And the bass, along with the rest of the instruments played, just ROCKS me like nothing I have ever heard before. She has really redefined my music world!! Her voice is so very, very soothing. I would have laughed so loud, that I'd still probably be laughing about that statement. Never in my lifetime could someone have told me an artist is going to come along and redefine your music world. I know everyone won't like her, but so very, very many will. And I LOVE IT!!!!! I use I and me a lot, because I'm telling you what her music is/does for/to me. But not with deadly results, but to catapult you to a whole new dimension for a unique and ultimate Natural High!! A world like I have never witnessed, and never knew or dreamed of that could exist. It's like the call of a Mermaid, or a Black Widow. It's truly mind-boggling.(The only exception is gospel music.) For me, it's like she's calling to me, for me to experience this magical musical journey with her. I'm still trying to figure out how it's possible for her to be able to satisfy all of my musical tastes/moods. She has become my favorite artist of all time, and I am in absolute AWE of her. Never have I encountered an artist who's music is good for whatever type of mood I am in. I listen to so many different types of music, and no singer/vocalist/artist has ever consumed my attention like she has. WOW!!!!!!! Where do I even begin? I've listened to a lot of singers in my lifetime, and none have captured my attention like Jhene Aiko.
