that said i think frank in general has definitely had influence



justin timberlakes "epic" style song structure on 20/20 was almost definitely influenced by franks songs like pyramids

no, but if it's going to be bland, unfinished and all over the place like this one is it better goddarn be groundbreaking at least.



I don't get how u can enjoy this so much, but whatever, I don't really care, s'cool.



what boggles me is how can anyone think this is like RnB 2.0 like what?

Most tracks (especially after the first 3) lack structure and cohesiveness. They just feel like demos, sometimes not even that.

Just a bunch of ideas that just don't work or flow together.

Not a fan of production either, but I guess that's more subjective.

but that's completely subjective; that is that they don't work. thats opinionated but arguing that this is unfinished... that's just really not true.

Did he not finish them because they didn't suck enough to put on his LPs or what?

People that don't like this album probably don't even think sunsets are beautiful.

ok, I understand that 'unfinished' might come off as strongly biased, maybe I'd say 'unpolished'?



For me, an RnB album that's unpolished is just not as good as it would be if it was more polished. Production and song-writing decisions have been made relating to this album that I just strongly disagree with.



Haven't seen anyone making this argument except for me and I'm interested to know the opinion of the ones here who think that it is good song writing and production, that's all.

this is maybe the most polished rnb album of all time



what counter argument to what you just said could there be



you have an opinion, i have opinion, the next person has a different opinion



none of them are any more or less true than the other
