You want to skip them, but you can’t! I suppose that is just another layer of her intentional 90s R&B genre throwback, but it’s a big genre cliche best left to 00s decade Janet Jackson.Probably because there are so many things that he didn't, I tried to forget, you know I try to forgive, I forgive her, but you, you know when, you go back and you think about the things he did, nobody, I don't know nobody like him. The only unwelcome additions are the wedged-in spoken word interludes segments they’re tacked on to the beginnings of several songs, instead of being their own individual, short album tracks. Janet Jackson-level work in creating a steady, maintained vibe across such a long track list.Īt 19 tracks, the album could easily come across as overstuffed, but it actually contains little to no filler. The buzz tracks and the ones I had yet to hear blended perfectly 90s upbeat throwback jam “CRZY” segued perfectly into the laid-back R&B banger “Personal.” Whoever sequenced this track list deserves a raise.

As soon as I got the email containing the album download link, I was off to the races.Įach song was better than the last. Their proper full-length debut, SweetSexySavage, followed its release by almost two years. Their second self-issued mixtape went Top Five R&B/hip-hop, cracked the Top 40, and was nominated for a Grammy in the category of Best Urban Contemporary Album. Finally the night of release came, and I was ready. Kehlani 's You Should Be Here struck some surprise blows. A master of suspense, Kehlani didn't reveal the deluxe album's 19 song track list until the week of its release late last month.
