i thought that ever since i first heard on & on and if anything, the comparison has become more apt over time.
(your comments re: voice made me think of that).
she don't have the best 'voice', but she's a stylist, creator of moods and vibes and conductor of emotions. i fux w/ jill, too, when she ain't taking herself too seriously. she can saing and emote and play the artiste...
but i'll listen to erykah ALL damn day ay day over, say, a beyonce or whitney type singer. maybe i just detest pop music.
