Make the bus actually turned me on to Of Monteal. I dig that track but it does create a major bone of contention in a essentially perfect album.

i think Suite III is extremely good. make the bus isn't great and is out of place, but even that song isn't bad. all the others are great to me.

Make the Bus is honestly a well made song. Just SO out of place.

Sad that she went from this to Dirty Computer, which was a hot mess.

completely agreed. it's not necessary to have an overarching story concept to make a good, well constructed album, but it really felt like she just said "fuk it" on Dirty Computer.

I fear that her interests are not centered on music anymore, but rather acting.

I really didn't care about the follow up to this either.

Does she have a sister, and did she release an album very recently?

until she makes an album as good as this that's fine, she's a great actor

Mushrooms and roses has a cool Beatles / ween feel. My favorite track I think.



Great concept. I didn't know it was a concept album until after a few listens and some research. I was expecting Janet Jackson pop styles but got James Brown/Beatles/ Parliament Funk/ween crazy goodness.



Great stuff for pop music. The only pop album I need for the next decade or so.





Peace and love

It's really one of the very best of the 2010s so good on that
