    Really dope album. I personally have enjoyed this more than any hip hop album put out this year; mainly, because it has replay value. Alicia just dropped the video for her second single "Like You'll Never See Me Again".....future singles should be "Wreckless Love" (alicia brings the inner freak out on this one, but in a classy way, "Teenage Love Affair", and "Where Do We Go From Here" should be a single because it BANGS....Alicia samples "After Laughter Comes the Tears" which is the same song Wu-Tang sampled on 36 Chambers....but I have a feeling Superwoman will be a single just, because it's one of those female power songs that chicks will love.....but I definitely got my moneys worth with this album.</p>

    No One kinda reminds me of Sade on certain parts in the song......that song just makes me feel good.......................speaking of the video to the 2nd single I find it interesting that Common and Alicia Keys did another video in which they were romantically involved...I know she's dating the Krucial Keys guy, but I'm surprised the press hasn't tried to run with this...............</p>

    I don't like it as much as her first 2 albums or the unplugged one, but solid nonetheless.</p>

    I think her previous albums probably had bigger hits, but I think this might be my favorite so far when talking about "cohesiveness"</p>

    So far, from what I've heard, it's pretty good. My mom's a fan, so I think I'm gonna get her this album and Carrie Underwood for her for Xmas.</p>
