For all of his love for spectacle, Pharell consistently makes great music. I heard the album earlier and loved it, as expected. I'm not going to rest until The Neptunes make their triumphant return, but god this is a really good pop album.
Okay, yeah. This album is so absolutely great. You know what made Love This Giant so good? It had some dirty-ass bass and horns, which every artist can benefit from. This album made it apparent that Annie realized that you can put that dirty, sexy kind of beat in your music and just make an album that sounds really awesome. Prince Johnny is like her older stuff, but slicker. Birth in Reverse is a hot suburban jam that I'm really down with. Oh yeah, and BRING ME YA LOVES ALL YA LOVES YA LOVES will never get out of my head.
You have no idea how great K. Rool would make me feel, but the recent DK games have just brushed the classic villains under the rug. Getting a Viking would be more likely, unfortunately.
