I Love all the tracks so far as well. (Except "Walk It Out") What audience are they going for UAC? Most of the tracks I have heard so far has been more dance oriented. Will either of her core radio formats (Urban or UAC) play this new stuff?

I think this era took a turn for the worse with "Walk It Out". It doesn't translate well live. "Dangerous" should have been released after ICD. It seems like they keep throwing out the collaborations in hopes that one will stick with the public. Maybe the song with Iggy will give her the hit she needs if released. It makes no sense that she hasn't had a #1 hit at her core radio formats or a Hot 100 placement after delivering her best material.

BETTER YET Jhud start over work w/ Mark Ronson the album cover along w/ the singles is a bad bad image doesn't fit and will confuse the public.All the tracks sounds like "I Remember Me leftovers.push back 2 march 2015 What? She looks fierce as hell on the album cover. This era is the most stylish, confident and sexy she's ever looked IMO. And the music reflects that. And not a single one of the tracks we've heard sound anything like I Remember Me.

Powerful vocals, good message, but I found the song boring.

Well this was a waste of an Iggy feature.

I love the chorus. I was singing it once the last chorus dropped.

Haha, I love the song outside of Iggy. She sounds so forced and badly edited in. Did she peform that rap over an answering machine? The mix sounds off.

The album has such an old school vibe, its great. It is definitely her best album to date and she sounds comfortable with these songs.
This feels like a continuation of the Alicia's tracks she had on the last album.

This is a great album. "Walk It Out" is the only song I don't like. My favorite has to be "I Still Love You".

Haven't listened yet but it's disappointing to see such positive feedback online yet have such shxtty promotion from RCA.

The mixes on a lot of the songs are terrible. How did they even get approved? Other than that, I think this is, by far, her best album. The only songs I don't like are "Bring Back the Music" and "Moan."

Dangerous He Ain't Goin' Nowhere Walk It Out I Can't Describe Bring Back the Music Moan (it gets better towards the end)
Overall, I think it's her most cohesive and defined album but they've clearly released the best songs as singles/promo singles already; the best bet is pushing Dangerous or HAGN as the last single and hoping she gets a few hundred thousand sold out of it.

This is going to be a short era considering 3 singles have already been released.

All the best tracks were released before the album leaked.

The fact that she released a disco album is so puzzling to me. I love her but she should stick to acting because she is too out of touch. how do u work with top producers and writers and come up with an album that shouldve been released in 1984?

^^^^^ Maybe they thought with the resurgence of dance/house music they thought it would be a good idea?????? I know it's a little more Disco but some of her latest songs are somewhat in the vein of "Id Rather Be and Hideaway" Again I know her tracks are more Disco than these tracks but it's closer to them then EDM dance music. That's the only thing I can think of.

I'm here for Jennifer invading new genres. She'll kill a Guetta/Zedd-esque track.

I think the album is missing a good mid-tempo ballad for her urban AC (something in vein of "Where You At" and "Spotlight") and that would have helped her to sell at least in the first week. The singles that have been released are probably too uptempo for her core format and she isn't known for up tempos. Her label missed the mark on that.
