When I said I wanted her to have tracks that stand out rather than blending in, I was referring to how I want the next album to be & not PF:RR.
The beats on PF:RR were different from other Urban songs on the radio at the time, but I feel like she couldn't went harder & more creative with the beats considering it was the album that she wanted to let loose & do different things.
I don't feel like the songs on PF:RR gave an accurate representation of who she was as an Urban artist as the time, but now she's headed in the right direction because TRU was a HUGE improvement & as she's working on the next album she'll grow & IMO make some of the best music she's made yet.
If she does go for an all Hip-Hop root on the next album, we'll all be expecting meltdowns from the Popnika fans.
That's why I'm hoping she still does a few crossover songs & songs that can appeal to mainstream radio so that she can please fans of both genre's while not being labeled a "sellout".
I listened to a few of the other songs on IANAHB2. They were ok. I know i sound small minded but i'm probably not gonna listen to the rest of them, Wayne is just not my type of rapper. I respect him though, but i am a proud owner of TC3.

All High School really needs is some radio support, When it gets that then she can release the video, until then.. just another IAYL waiting to happen.
