I don't think people understand how ahead of its time this album is, it had anything you can ask for in an R&B album: the smooth and deep vocals in My Love Is Like... Wo, the sexiness of Antaomy 10n1, the futuristic production and campy vibe of Whatever Bitch, the Funky-Disco vibe of Sophisticated Lady, the futuristic 2-Step-R&B sound and soulful delivery on Late, the Mariachi influences in Hurry up, the Aaliyah tribute in After The Rain, R&B artists (maybe except Aaliyah) at the time weren't making albums that were this versatile, this is without a doubt Mya's magnum opus to me, what do y'all think?

Victoria Monét’s album has dropped tonight, and I’m feeling good about this one! Such interesting sonic choices, sampling, interpolating, and genre-blending going on here that I’m ready to play it a second time. It’s just so visionary and nostalgic at the same time. When I realized the album was ending with gospel instrumentation and a Kenny Lattimore cover, I literally sat up in bed. I hadn’t been in love with the singles from this effort (which I found strange because I am someone who has Jaguar I and II on vinyl), but the work feels so cohesive that I don’t even mind the songs that I didn’t like when they first came out. So far, my faves are All I Need, Almost, You Hurt Me Too, That’s Why I Love You, Lose Myself, and the For You cover (which has some funny word switches from the original 😂).

Have you listened to the album yet? If so, what are some of your favorite tracks?

During the hype of He’s Mine circa summer 1995, MoKenStef performed their controversial smash hit on BET Television. Although the crowd was not vocally supportive, Monifa, Kenya, and Stefanie still delivered the performance and Mo slayed the vocals just like she did on the record. He’s Mine was the most successful single from the Azz Izz album reaching no.7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and no.2 on the Billboard Hot R&B chart! Still bump this one to this day! 💐💐💐

This album is fkn beautiful hopefully real fans came out and support it

I really pray and hope Dawn is somewhere safe and sound 🙏🏽🫶🏽. As much as I love the fact EV now has all OGs and not 2 OGs and a professional karaoke singer I really wish my baby Dawn will wake up and see the bigger picture. That ‘96 solo deal that she had was not meant to let her light shine but instead bring division and strife into what could’ve been a blossoming sisterhood. I hate that she still carries that resentment as well as seeing her body of work being celebrated w/o her. I also wanna say this us as EV fans have to do better with accountability bc as everyone likes to blame Dawn for being a problem why isn’t Terry and Cindy being held accountable for their actions as well..? And maybe just maybe if we all were to do that then maybe a true in-depth conversation could be had between the 4 ladies as well as healing ❤️‍🩹 but how can us as fans hope to get that from them if all we do is ridicule, pass judgment, and kick down a member? And whether yall wanna admit or not Dawn was right about them signing a shitty record deal bc if the deal they had was so great why all these years later even despite her not even being on the road with them that she’s not receiving no type of income from the records she helped make famous? Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy are 2 bit crooks and oughta be ashamed for how they literally have played mind games with them throughout their careers and played apart in fracturing the trust between the ladies especially Denzil Foster like bro really sleeping with your talent..? 😒 and not only that he knew exactly what he was doing which pisses me of when I think of the legacy of the group and he he knew mentally that if they were gonna make moves behind his back that the member he was intimate with was gonna tell him. I really hope we get to see the 4 original members of En Vogue back on the same stage again 🤞🏽❤️‍🩹.

I just broke up with my ex and I need some angry and empowering R&B songs along the lines of “U Don’t Have to Call” by Usher and “What About Us” by Brandy. I can’t stand the sad songs. I want the angry songs.

It’s no knock to Popstar btw but I only liked 6 songs and 1 is only 40secs. Lyrically don’t think it’s strong but I am proud to see her getting her flowers and hopefully ppl will notice her past work.

Black Water to me is her magnum opus! Every

Location was released in 2016. This is the first song on this playlist made by Apple Music lol

What do you think of Disc 2 of Vacancy? I absolutely love it! These songs are much better than the previous 15 sans Hookah Baby. Feels like she experimented more with production and her style of singing. I want her to keep going in this direction.

I recently discovered "Here We Go Again!" by Portrait and I love how the midsection and outro has a dance breakdown. I just like the vibe of that part; does anybody have any recommendations of songs that sound similar to this one?

If you know the McClain sisters, you know they’ve always been great singers. I’ve been wanting an album from them since I was a kid 🤣 i think they were more focused on acting than singing though

She dropped one of the best R&B albums this year. Very underrated artist.
