She's done alright for herself but after taking 5 years to start working on a 3rd album, I'm just surprised anyone cares about her now. I wonder if she wasn't in the limelight for her drugs problem, would she still have any interest in her? I say that because, while she doesn't appeal to me, other people are excited for her music after a 5 year wait, so that does say a lot about her talent.
Yeah, if she's compared to someone like Sade, the latter had 4 "smash" albums in (a similar) 7 years, charting at 2,1,3 and 10 in the UK and 5,1,7 and 3 in the US ..... nuff said .....
