bigted Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 I got a chance to check out this album yesterday and I gotta say that I'm quite impressed by how she was able to make such a creative and versatile album, nearlyfour years after her impressive sophmore effort "Stripped" album where she was showing the evolution of an artist but she takes it to a whole another level here, this album's got everything from soul, blues, pop, jazz, and hip-hop sounds on here, her amazing voice shineswith production done by DJ Premiere, Big Tank, Kwame, and Linda Perry among others, my favorite tracks so far on here are "Makes Me Wanna Pray", "Back In The Day", "Oh Mother", "Still Dirrty", "Candy Man", and "Save Me From Myself", I recommend this to any music fan, btwhere's the album cover and track listing: 1. Intro (Back To Basics) 2. Makes Me Wanna Pray featuring Steve Winwood 3. Back In The Day 4. Ain't No Other Man 5. Understand 6. Slow Down Baby 7. Oh Mother 8. F.U.S.S. (Interlude) 9. On Our Way 10. Without You 11. Still Dirrty 12. Here To Stay 13. Thank You (Dedication To Fans...) 14. Enter The Circus 15. Welcome 16. Candyman 17. Nasty Naughty Boy 18. I Got Trouble 19. Hurt 20. Mercy On Me 21. Save Me From Myself 22. The Right Man 23. Back To Basics (Bonus Video) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy Julie Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 i like the first single, but i heard her do a live version of candy man and it put me off. Are all the songs in this style? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vipa Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 i like the first single, but i heard her do a live version of candy man and it put me off. Are all the songs in this style? No. It's a 2 disk...The first disk is the one thats more Hip Hop/R&B Oriented, while the entire 2nd disk is pretty much in the styles of the 1920s and 30s...

bigted Posted August 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Yeah I prefer Disc One over Disc Two myself, even though it's interesting to hear a contempory artist doing oldies music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
