Edited 5 years agoThis is he best sounding release. The reissue is not near as good. -
Top pressing and packaging of this epic album! Should be in every serious RnB Neo Soul vinyl collection -
Great album. Can't compare with any Janelle Monáe from crappy lists of "best 50 albums-2018". Never listen to this vinyl. Interesting.

Love this album, certainly one of her best in my opinion. Funny thing about the pressing I have, the labels for Side B and Side C are on the wrong records. For my copy, Disc One Side Two has the label on it that belongs to Disc Two Side One. Aside from that flaw, the sound is flawless. Top drawer timeless album from Ms Jackson.
