I could most likely be bombarded and hated for saying this, but I have to know if there is anyone else out there who feels the same way. I feel that Kelly sold
out with this album. I feel like the lyrics just arent there this time around. I had a hard time recognizing the kelly I love in most of the songs. She just
sounded like every other pop artist out there. And yes that aspect will most likely sell this album, but Kelly worked so hard to get her way with My December,
it's a shame she followed it up with this album. I hate to say I was disappointed, but I was. I'll always be a fan of Kelly, I just hope the next album
is more true to her and her voice.

She didnt sell out or anything, she stayed true to what she loves making music that she loves and she loves this album just because you dont write on every song doesnt mean she sold herself out. Thats my opinion if kelly loves the music on the labum she didnt sell out cause liek she said ALL I EVER WANTED was to make music |

I think I love this album just a bit more than MD cuz shes on a good path now, shes got quality songs that arent all sell outs, and MD was what she needed to grow. I havent listened to anything butthis album since the leak. Bought my two copies today, one of each. I realize the back and front pics are just flipped, but the standard looks nice with the 4 other albums of hers laying out including both Breakaway covers. |

Sometimes they're just lazy and don't re-stock fast enough to fill the demand. Come to my local Target there's about 10,000 copies sitting there collecting dust |

It just seems that this is a money grab from her label. I'm not saying that Kelly doesn't like it, bc I believe that Kelly wouldn't put out anything she wasn't proud of. It's just a shame it was this album. |

Kelly's TRUE talent lies in her versatility. Kelly doesn't have just "one" voice so to say she "found her voice" on My December really is to miss the point of kelly as an artist. No offense to My December but to act like that was the be all and end all for Kelly is just a tad overdramatic. It was one album, it took a different turn than Breakaway and now AIEW is taking a different turn than MD. I'm not sure how happy I'd be as a kelly fan if she put out another album like My December, just like if she'd have put out another breakaway I wouldn't have been happy about it. For me, the best thing about Kelly is that I now have four albums from her and I could listen to all four back to back and it would be like I was hearing four different artists but the beauty is I don't have to pick and choose a different artist depending on the style I music I like....Kelly sings them all and does so brilliantly. |

Silly Dawn wrote:i totally disagree my december wasnt all about the vocals it was about the lyrics obviously vocals too but wasnt wat made it MY DECEMBER. so she didnt sell herself out on her vocals the vocals on this album are amazing , i think ur talking about the productuion being like all the pop out there and that she has no control over she has a say and obviously she likes it so i still dont think she sold herself out. Kelly is a grown person and makes her own decisions and she feels this was the right one so she coulndnt have sold out if she chose everything. Her record label would have wanted a breakaway 2 and this album is no wre near it. Kelly will never let the record comapny take control and you dont know what went on behind closed doors for this album my december wouldnt have been everyones favorite lyrically if someone else wrote those lyrics its because kelly wrote them thats how it is u support what ever she does because its kelly and its true to her heart. She wouldn sell herself out for money she does what she wants for the music and to her this is whats right , right now

Just got the cd today. I like several of the songs and love Kelly's voice, but don't love the cd overall. Am still a diehard Kelly fan and will be at
her concert at the Ohio State Fair this July (and any of her other concerts I'm able to attend.) Go Kelly!!!!!

^ Or maybe it's just that every other pop artist out there sounds like Kelly, these days. People forget how much Kelly has influenced music. Kelly hit it
huge and then who came along and had big hit after big hit..PINK! Pink had been big before but with a very different sound, Kelly paved the way for her rock
sound to make a splash. Katy Perry also owes a lot to Kelly, IMO. The list could go on and on but I will shut up. I just can't stand when people talk about
how Kelly is only worth their money if she writes every lyric herself and the music is "deep." What is all that about? Not everyone wants to listen
to My December all the time and I would be upset if Kelly put out that kind of album year after year! Frankly, I needed a break and something to lift my
spirits with the economy and such and this album is great for what it is. Saying Kelly sold out is a direct insult to her because she picked all of these songs
and is very exicted about the album.

ok guys, no one is stepping over the line but it is getting close. Every album has had it's share of people who didn't
like it, each album has actually driven off a few fans and made a few new fans.
Let's not mar this new era debating what made My December a good album. People are allowed to post their opinions without having them debated. Let's not start the drama on day one ok? |

So, U2's HDD numbers are finally in and if they have the usual week two 50-60% drop, then the number for Kelly to beat would be ~ : 190,000-240,000, which
should be very doable
LW TW artist / album label power index % change -- 1 U2 INTERSCOPE 479,753 -- NO LINE ON THE HORIZON |
