I can't wait. Alicia’s album is great – I’ve been listening to it off & on since I got it and truthfully the only song that I’m iffy about is LIMITEDLESS – which is funny because I hated GOF as she performs it but love listening to it on the cd (I don’t even mind Nicki’s verses). I truly appreciate the fact that she stays firm in who she is as an artist and doesn’t chase trends much like one of my favorite female artists, the late Teena Marie.

I also love that she is a strong enough woman to not let her husband, a producer with a very distinctive style, overtake her musical sensibility and turn her music and therefore HER into something she is not which we have seen happen to other female artists who felt the need to shake up their style.

I think people who actually buy the album appreciate music with melody, instrumentation and authentic soul – not soul music per se but music that truly comes from the artist’s heart & soul which GIRL ON FIRE is.
