Janelle is my favorite female artist (fell in love with her voice since Idlewild).  I don't like this album as much as The Archandroid (hard to follow that up), but this is still amazing.  Favorite songs are Queen, Look Into My Eyes, Can't Live Without Your Love, Dorothy Dandridge Eyes, and What An Experience

I let this play out while I was doing an exam earlier and I gotta say this is some good music... her voice is dope as fuck, she's doing big things right now and I can see why

so i'm still loving this album. definitely more than her others, the sound is really very nice indeed. i found a 24bit version (pm bitrate flac kings) and its bomb, the drums are really coming through. loving the vibe in her latest vid...
