“Work on It” is a look just beneath the surface at a relationship that takes, well, work- but the intrigue is lacking, even with production from the usually unflappable Pharrell Williams. There are only three tracks on which you could safely guess that she is giving any insight into her world. Still, this is an Alicia Keys record, and it wouldn’t be wrong to expect her to devote time to herself. It helps to take this into consideration early on, so that it’s not entirely confusing when Keys starts singing from the perspective of a 29-year-old addict on “Illusion of Bliss.” Or on “Kill Your Mama,” where she takes on the role of spokesperson for all of Mother Earth’s wayward children, piling the platitudes onto a simple guitar melody: “Is there any savin’ us/We’ve become so dangerous/Is there any change in us/Even for the sake of love.”

Instead, by personifying hip-hop, she is performing the first of several shifts in narrative perspective. So when Keys says “I’m the musical to the project fables/I’m the words scratched out on the record label/I’m the wind when the record spins/I’m the dramatic static before the song begins,” you don’t need to take it literally. Those two songs specifically were the most memorable for me, and I much rather would have had those than the interludes.“The Beginning (Interlude),” HERE’s opener, sets the scene for the album to work as a series of extended metaphors. I hate the fact that In Common and Hallelujah weren't on the final album! I'm one of the few who still buys physical albums, although much more rarely recently, so it really annoys me when songs are only available by download. I thought that Spotify was pushing it to me since I follow her, but I saw today a feiend's account that doesn't even listen her and he got a recommendations by Spotify of a playlist with her in the cover, containing two of her new songs. If she's in full control of this album roll out, it's akin to self sabotage.I couldn't agree more.Īt least I see a lot of promo about the album. Just not first single worthy, and certainly not comparable to the kind of work she was putting out at the beginning of her career. She should have kept In Common on there and released a hot second single.

People definitely aren't gonna buy this record.

I hate when artists drop the first single off the album track list these days because it didn't top the charts.
