but i just wanted to let you know that you are appreciated. i respect your groove, and what you've been giving us all these years. i pray you and yours are blessed, and look forward to the new album.

and let me say, i consistantly enjoy how you irreverently mix styles/genres that the music industry imagines as disparate. the knock on "danger" taken together with the transitions on, say, "green eyes" makes for a catalogue that both rewards listeners with something complex and challenges how we think about categories. keep doing your thing, lil mama.
