Can you point me to some footage of her playing? That's not me not believing you. That's me genuinely asking because I'm unaware.

Not monitoring. I see comparisons to Lil Wayne and think the shit is kinda over the top.

>Does not mean I'm not using common sense - it shouldn't be
>either you hate D'angelo or you think he's God.

I'm not sure where you feel this is how I think. I didn't think you hate D nor do I even remotely think he's God. I'm commenting on in what I feel is an overzealous amount of critique. Not a big deal.

>There are people like me who are normal about this and have

> Thanks.

I get it. I've just seen you post the same thing several times. He's got a shitload of work to do as a guitar player and has no business doing solos. But the Lil Wayne reference? really? BTW the "looks the part" comment is in reference to the little wayne nonsense. I'm not giving him a pass. But that comparison is silly.

I would like to see Lauryn's playing though.
