Underrated Albums.

This post is actually about two of my favorite female artists which absolutely shocks me. They are two of the very few women in the game who actually have vocal talent. It saddens me to write that Beyonce and Christina Aguilera have the most underrated albums. Aguilera's "Bionic" was released last year in June and had the most beautiful ballads (Life Me Up, All I Need, I Am & You Lost Me) I'd heard in years and possibly the best "getting ready for the club"(Glam & Vanity) anthems ever but didn't receive commercial success. It blows my mind that an album as great as "Bionic" slid under the radar especially being released by a superstar such as Aguilera.

Following in "Bionic's" footsteps it seems Beyonce's "4" will also not receive the commercial success it deserves. So far the Pop Queen has released three great singles Run the World (Girls), 1+1 & Best Thing I Never Had; all equally uplifting. Instead of hating on each other Run the World (Girls) is uplifting and empowering women. 1+1 could have love's greatest cynic falling head over heels and Best Thing I Never Had is about dodging a bullet (blessing in disguise, who hasn't been there?). A couple nights ago the entire album was leaked (never a good sign; refer to my R.Kelly 12th Play Fourth Quarter post) and "4" is just as amazing as any other Beyonce album. It saddens me to think that society no longer embraces real vocalists as they should. Please don't believe the hype and check out both "Bionic" and "4".
