Review
This begins well with the singles being etched in my brain from many years ago. Two of the first three songs reminds you how good Scott Storch was. While 'Baby Boy' doesn't match the quality of the first two songs, 'Hip Hop Star' is forgettable and the first real problem. From there it gets less hip hop influenced and more towards general contemporary R&B ballads. 'Be With You' that borrows heavily from Bootsy Collins''I'd Rather Be With You' and 'Me, Myself and I' are good songs. 'Yes' goes nowhere. 'Signs' production and the way she sings is fine but the astrology lyrical BS makes it hard to take seriously. I hope she doesn't really believe it. It happens again, but with fewer astrology references in 'Gift From Virgo'. 'Speechless' is another slow one but feels a 'lil more vibey and musically interesting with some nice vocals. To end the album, 'Daddy' gets Freudian, - "I want my husband to be like my daddy..." The build-up and music is good but lyrically I find it odd. A front-loaded album with the four singles featured within the first six songs and there is nothing after 'Speechless' worth checking for. Beats: ★★☆ Vocals/Bars: ★★★ Hooks: ★★☆ Best Tracks: Crazy in Love, Naughty Girl, Me, Myself and I
