The album will be on sale for $7.99 at Target but there will be no deluxe edition.

The album sounds solid, and I like a lot of the songs more than "I Deserve It" and "Good Time". Sounds about on par with Something About Faith for me.

Mmm, that seems to only be about 7 songs on the sampler. I've need to hear more and some ballads.

As long as it's better than SAF, I'll be satisfied.

It sounds better than SAF to me, honestly. Better production quality (vocals are of course on point as ever).
I'm sad that "Take your time" is just an interlude, it sounds soooo good.
i'm so mad she didn't put Fragile on the sampler though. we know that's the jam it's killing me i want to hear it in full so badly.

Now that all the clips are out, this definitely sounds better than Something About Faith. Sounds like classic Faith. Can't wait!

The full album is easily better than SAF and on par with her first four; she got some great D and made a great album!

I can't believe how good "Fragile" is. it's the best thing she's done in a decade, I'm a huge huge Faith fan but even I'm shocked that she pulled off something this catchy at this point. I think it's stellar.

"In a decade" is a bit of a stretch considering "The First Lady" came out in like 2005, and she's only released one albums since then. LOL.
==========================================================
This album sounds A LOT better than that last snooze fest. But it still sounds like she recorded this with her head in a toilet. "Fragile" is cute, but it's a bad single choice. "Make Love" with KeKe and "Ever Go Away" sound like some UAC SMASHES!! The second single should have just been a ballad. They never fail for her.

Not sure how it's "quite a stretch considering TFL came out in like 2005" when with now being 2014.....last time I checked there were 10 yrs in a decade and 9 is sure close to 10!

I agree that the single choices have been a bit suspect...I like "I Deserve It" and love "Fragile", but to also release "Good Time" seems like a missed opportunity to release a ballad, or even a hotter uptempo ("Incomparable" sounds great). It sounds like there are far more potential singles on this album then her last one.

"Make Love" with KeKe and "Ever Go Away" sound like some UAC SMASHES!! "Make Love" would be major at Urban AC.

With respect, you don't know what you're talking about. She has released much more than just one album (there was the holiday album, the R&B divas album, and a TON of guest appearances, several of which were released as singles)--- all of those releases count as things which she has released in the last decade. Also, "Fragile" is not a bad single choice. In no sense is it a bad choice.

This is on same level as her first 3 albums. Really good. What about her rapping in the outro?
Early favorites: Make Love, Fragile, Incomparable and Paradise.

I'll have to listen to this tonight. I'm predicting about 7500 first week for her.
