Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just listening to "Torn" today. She wasn't reinventing the wheel or anything with her music, but I did enjoy her previous offerings.

I liked it too but more so as an album track and not a single. She keeps improving vocally throughout each album.

People are gonna come for my wig for saying this, but I don't care. There are parts on this where she sounds like Ariana Grande.
I love this though!

I LOVE it. Not so concerned with her getting a hit anyway. The Urban landscape has changed a lot since she last released an album.
Also.. looks like she's using her full name now (if we can go by the single cover).

Let's be real - eOne isn't gonna do shxt in terms of promotion and marketing for real so it's gonna be an uphill battle for her at radio regardless of what she drops. Best case scenario, she'll go top-20 Urban AC like Traci.
That said: I LOVE this. The Marvin Gaye feel is such a groove.

She's so consistent and this track is no exception. She's by far one of my fav singers and cannot wait for the album. It's been wayyy too long.

Has anybody really done well with eone? No :(. She needs to leave asap. Major Label worthy, still.

She is one of the most underrated R&B girls out. She really knows how to do the most with her voice. Love the new song.

I certainly did not expect something like this from her. That being said, I love it!

Has anybody really done well with eone? No :(. She needs to leave asap. Major Label worthy, still. Within the last 5 years, I'd say their R&B/Soul roster has consisted of: Algebra Blessett Ashanti Bilal Bobby V Brian McKnight Dave Hollister Donell Jones Dwele Eric Roberson Faith Evans Johnny Gill Kelly Price K-Ci & JoJo Ron Isley SWV Traci Braxton Vivian Green I'm sure there's some I'm forgetting but as far as sales go, I believe Johnny Gill's Still Winning was their most successful R&B release (96k). As far as singles, Tears of Joy (Faith) peaked at #4 on Adult R&B; not sure where It's My Time (Kelly) peaked at. A good half of that list I would say did manage to secure top-20 Urban AC singles but they all were mostly coming off previous Urban AC success; I'd put LeToya in the Ashanti boat as someone who hasn't really been marketed to or included in the Urban AC demographic before and Ashanti got virtually no radio play with Braveheart. Hopefully, she has a good independent team of her own rallying behind her.

"Together" is very vanilla. Definitely prefer "I'm Ready".

Outside of Say My Name, I can't really think of another time you could clearly hear LeToya during her DC days. Are there any other examples of her being more than just muted backing vocals?
