[REGGAE] rI'm really split on this album's good and 'not as good' qualities. I really enjoy the big band -esque orchestrations in this album (New Name, Intentions, Taken Up, Inner Voices) but some songs either have lyrical delivery that I find uncomplimentary to the instrumentals (Gratitude) or some lyrical portions are not as well written (Preacher Man, Avacado), which I find hard to imagine considering her choice of spoken verses for Interlude. She DOES have the capacity for better lyrics. In similar ways, this is the another (Janelle Monae) 'Dirty Computer' experience in my ears. Tracks 1, 2, 6, 8, 9, and 10 serve as my highlights for this record.
