I'm impressed! :o Judging from the clips, "Fall in Love" or "Umm Hmm" should've been the first single, but "Window Seat" is nice enough. This album seems a to be a lot warmer and organic than Part One, which I found to be just a little mechanical and esoteric. Erykah pulls off both styles beautifully, though.

This album seems like her proper third release - a perfect extension of Baduizm and Mama's Gun. I'm in love.

Erykah is just eccentric (read: crazy) enough to cancel the album release like she threatened to if it does.

Wow, Erykah is a fool, this album is pure love. Man, "Gone Baby, Don't Be Too Long", "Umm Hmm", "Love", "You Loving Me (Session)" (especially this one), and "Fall in Love (Your Funeral)" are my instant favorites.

Solid album. A few skippers, but overall, Ms. Badu doesn't disappoint!

I listen to the album all night. The flow is perfect. I wish "Jump Up In the Air and Stay There" on the album though.

Pt. II is a graceful exercise of sentimentality and sensibility. Ms. Badu has a distinct ability to enliven conventions of the soul genre. She deals with the affairs of the heart and the soul with verve and unconventionality that refresh already established notions. It's a testament to her artistry really. In the future, I think I want her to get as provocative and vehement like she was in Pt. I but regardless, this is an entirely opulent album that quenches our desires for sheer soul.

I love the video. I like how she reps Dallas to the fullest and I know exactly where this video was filmed. I'll be buying this on Tues.

I think I'll actually get this, but I'm not as excited as I was once the wait was over for Worldwide Underground. Pt.1 was too far out for me, but I think I'll enjoy this one.

The video is simply amazing, I'm digging this era so much more than Part 1.

I think it should do around the same as Part One, 120k.

I heard Usher is now #1 so...no. I am excited to hear this in full. I only heard Window Seat once and I heard the clips on ITUNES this morning. The CD and booklet look pretty cool. She writes this lengthy introduction that was a fascinating read.
