This album is simply brilliant! The more you listen to it, the better and the more "selfish" one will thereafter. Before I bought "8701", I only knew the song "U Remind Me". But I liked already so good that I bought on spec the complete CD, without listening to me before, which indeed usually always involves some risk, especially if you know only one track on the album. So I was very surprised that the CD contains so many good songs. Each title is absolutely worth listening to, and seen as a whole, the album is pretty varied. It's a really good mix of very emotional ballads and danceable R & B. Anyone who stands on black music or R & B and hip-hop should definitely check it out. It is worth it!
