Dwele does have a bit of a monotone style...allthough I apriciate his music more for the beats and his freaky melodie/chords with him singing over them! The sound of his voice isn't that special!

I get what your saying...before neosoul everyone was doing straight up beats nothing special, after neosoul movement everyone was testing the boundries of where they could go with playing sloppy or just screwing with meters! To be honest after the soulquarians I never heard it being done in an honest way! More like a "copy/paste" way!

I don't think/hope D will ever lose that sloppyness in his timing! He did that on Brown Sugar (Crusin') so that's just him! If I had to choose between the two I'd say they would not be comparable...Brown Sugar is the musician album with great seperate songs...Voodoo is a story album, as it seems to take you on a "soul train" from A to B in 74 minutes!

I Appreciate Both!
