    Is the new album good? I've missed out on a ridiculous amount of stuff this year so far.

  • Hotsauce84Hotsauce84 8,450 Posts
    Just came out today! I started this thread in the parking lot of Best Buy. Only $7.99!

    I'm 7 tracks in and definitely feelin' it.

    I like her.

    BATMON recently attempted to deride her as British.

    Her music isn't bad, but her hair and the fact that she's been wearing the same get-up for a year now kills it for me.

    I like her 'cause she stays in her own lane. She's a weird one too with all her android talk.

    she ain't THAT weird. she strikes me as that goth, art student chick who thinks she's blowing everybody's minds with her 'individuality'.

    what is her best song?

    I'm feeling the "Don't stop til you get enough" samples on that one. I knew somebody was gonna do that. ^^^

    Outkast sci-fi punk SoulFunk sci fi afrobeat/prog soul/Of Montreal female Andre3000

    There's a cloud of buzzwords around this girl right now. I'm not seeing it. I wouldn't put my money into that album, but I'd definitely put it in her. namean

    You're good, holmes. We usually don't have any issues with it unless it's somehow related to our circle. Thanks for posting though! Looking forward to hearing the Organized Noize mix.

    Hmm. Thought you only liked curvy girls.

    She's like the female version of that guy from Outkast with those outfits, except prettier. I'd love to see her change her look up sometimes.

    You got me all wrong, Almond! I like 'em all shapes, sizes and colors! As long as I find 'em cute!

    I loved her cover of Letting Go on Got Purp and thought her EP had some decent tracks so will definitely be checking this out.

    i've been a fan of JM for the past few years, and couldn't really put my finger on her. saw her perform (finally) last night. she really puts on a great show. i don't really care about her image. she's got a great voice and puts out some good tunes.

    Trippin.



    I remember playing "Letting Go" at almost every gig for a minute. That song was a sureshot.

    Take this bs to the American Idol thread.

    Is she like the 3rd Blues Brother now?

    I thought the third Blues Brother was Cab Calloway?

    I just saw this on the Late Show last night, haveing not heard of her previously... I was definitely feeling this cut.

    I really like her album and I didn't think I would. Heard Tightrope, really liked it but thought her album might disappoint and be full of those kinds of tracks. Then it turned out surprisingly diverse and has some very interesting twists in there. For instance there are a few moments where she goes into 70s folk territory. The arrangements are also very nice throughout the album.

    Hope she gets big.

    you mean that breakdown at 3:19?




    so JB.


    have caught her twice in the last year, both times were great, both were before i had heard any of her recordings. not sure if you can tell in those videos, but she's *tiny* in person. great energy live though.
