When "Brown Sugar" first dropped - we were all crooning and swooning over Mr. Man. Why?

When B's album drops - whatcha think - will we be as likely to croon and swoon?

My thinking is naw. At least not at first. I think it will take a minute for people to catch on just as it did with D but I also think that B has some polishing to do before things fall into place correctly. Not to say he isn't great, he just isn't completely there yet, nah'mean? Kat's young though - and how old was D when Brown Sugar came out??

Guess we will have to wait until B's album drops to REALLY compare and contrast - or would that be like comparing D & Maxwell? Speaking of Maxwell - where does he fit into this equation?

Was his success merely because we were longing for more if that thug-love-funky shit from D and Maxwell was our only alternative or as close as we could get to D in his absence?

I know I'm all over the place with this - but whatever...
