What great sound! None of the melodies in this one blew me away, but I completely understand the draw

Ooh! I know so much about Blur but have never listened to an album of theirs, exciting! I can hear the lineage, but their particular tambre is not for me.

I now feel awful for rating Risque so low, Chic are disco masters and I did not know what I was listening to. Disco is not my jam, but this is some of the best out there.

Yes please more hindi inspired music! ...correction, hindi music! Woo! How was I so wrong? Well reguardless of the origins, this rocks hard. So danceable, so aware, so activist, just wonderful!

I think the most astounding this is album his how many songs got airplay. It's not quite my vibe, but I cannot deny the mastery.

The writing is okay, extremely objectifying though, I did not enjoy how the women in this album aren't really acknowledged as people with voltion. The instrumentation feels aged too.

Rated 8/10

That was interesting! Really loved the instrumentation and Indian influence. Less fond of the painfully 90's electronica.

Another powerful important album that I just don't resonate with musically. I wish I could rate this higher, but I just don't want to listen to it.
