    Eeeerm.... Didn't Scarlett release her own album like a year or two ago? Tom Waits covers or something? This is kinda awkward 'cuz Ellen doesn't seem to know about that with all her "how did you know she could sing?" and "you've launched her career" talk. Or I am missing something.

    @FrannyG: People ask Pete how he "knew" she could sing because their album was recorded before her solo album was, although her solo album came out first.

    This doesn't surprise me at all as I believe it matches her talent for singing which also leaves much to be desired.

    It's cool, I think Scarlett just needs some more practice. Perhaps this would help?

    This is an album I didn't want to like, but I do. It could be the wine.

    Interesting/Disturbing fact from pint-sized TransFat. I memorized "Shoop" along with "Whatta Man" when I was maaaaybe 10-11 (because I lived and breathed En Vogue and the Salt n Pep at the time) and had no idea how filthy those songs were until years later.

    Also, anyone else notice the line towards the end of "Shoop" where the dude says he'd get Salt "Sound(in) like a retard" and then she makes a noise to, I guess, match the sentiment? Klassy!

    Shoop is my "dance around the house in my underwear" song. Y'all needed to know me a little more intimately, right?

    Wow. Four pages of comments and no love for the Princess Superstar? Bad Babysitter was a hit and nowhere near the best track on the album, 'Is'.

    Keep taking our shit away, we'll get mad. And we'll sing about it. I promise. We may have left the techno-bubble/Paris era/sext message decade to be narrated by Young Jeezy, but we tend to come on strong when there's actually something that needs to get said.

    Hasn't Queen Latifah sorta ditched rap? Isn't she into singing more jazz/ r&b now? Or is she going back to rap again?

    I fail to see how a lot of male rappers don't have "badass nympho" personas. 50 cent anyone? Rap could really use more women right now. I think there needs to be a 2008 Ladies' Night reunion- they can revive Left Eye a la Tupac. I don't want my ladies just to be singing hooks, looking like Pattie LaBelle if you know what I mean...

    ...kind of partial to Trina's verse in "naan" - I don't know what it was that just made me love that song- especially considering how scared I was to have my mom catch me with L'il Kim's first tape (yeah man, tape) back in h.s.


    I concur with everyone who mentioned Jean Grae- pretty awesome; Kid Sister- true, she's not that deep but she's really just good and; Yo Majesty- those girls are make-you-blush raw but they're good if you can take it. And yeah, whatever happened to Bahamadia?
