Advantages: it smells very good Disadvantages: ...
Today I am going again to speak to you about a flavor. I was thinking about what I was well to be able to speak to you today when I saw my small box which contains my samples of flavors. There I looked, when an echantillon drew my attention, I had never tried it. And it seemed to me strange then I looked the name and it is the famous: J'Adore of Christian Dior. I had already seen the advertisement of this flavor but I had not even pay attention that I possessed the echantillon!!!! Then neither one nor two I put myself it to try it, discover it and to be able to speak to you about it...
Then first of all it appears in a flask which I find very beautiful and very original. Indeed it has the shape of a droplet, the flask is transparent but on the other hand it has a big gilded cork which reminds of necklaces that certain women put ...
Advantages: Lots of big tunes Disadvantages: Not as strong as her debut
?My Life? was released in 1994 and came as the second album from the R&B and Soul singer Mary J. Blige as she, along with support from the Bad Boy label (which has Puffy Daddy as its owner, and who is also seen to produce much of this release) come to bring another heavily Hip Hop-influenced record.
1. ?Intro?
2. ?Mary Jane?
After an interesting introduction, you see that she guides us right into what would become a classic R&B track form the artist as you find that in this one she performs a re-worked version of the Mary Jane Girls? ?All Night Long?. She goes hard with the material and makes it her own, whilst not going too far from the original). It is a tune that I simply can?t see a single fault in and is bound to take you in immediately.
**Five Stars**
3. ?You Bring Me Joy?
Sampling a Barry White track that would eventually ...
Advantages: It might be: Just another Challenge Disadvantages: It might be: Just how many more can anyone stomach?
Blaise, Talk to Her, My Little Chickadee, Les Regles de Jeu, The Killers, Deliverance, The Spider's Stratagem, Kind Hearts and Coronets, The Big Sleep, A Clockwork Orange, Wild Strawberries, The Third Man, Ashes and Diamonds, A Day at the Races?..etc, etc. This could run and run.
j) What is your favourite type of read and do you have an all-time favourite book?
I've already done an op on this. I'll read anything - classics, poetry, crime, SF, children's fiction, non-fiction, dictionaries, cereal packets, small print on terms and conditions, bus tickets - and enjoy most of it. But no, I don't have a favourite book.
k) Which CD is in your discman at the moment?
No discman, and very few CDs. Most of my music is left over from the Vinyl Era - and I even have some shellac 78s. On the three-disc CD loader of our music ...

Album Notes
Composer: J Yancey. Personnel: J Dilla (rap vocals); Dank (vocals); Lil-Bit(ch) (unknown instrument). Originally released independently in 2003 on vinyl, the late J Dilla's RUFF DRAFT returns in 2007 as an expanded double album (the second disc is instrumentals) on Stones Throw. In hindsight, RUFF DRAFT clearly marks a pivotal point in Dilla's creative evolution, displaying a nascent interest in zooming early-hip-hop synthesizers and a plethora of soul loops and samples. These tendencies would come into full fruition in CHAMPION SOUND, his later collabo with Madlib, and in his 2006 masterpiece, DONUTS. J handles the rhymes (and some crooning) on most tracks, though Guilty Simpson makes an appearance, but it's the production wizardry that makes this album something special.
Album Reviews
Spin (p.88) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] platform for the versatility of his eccentric genius." The Wire (p.67) - "[This] recording contains some of his finest and most immediate work....'Nothing Like This' is the winning moment, a beautifully naive love song over a dreamy reversed guitar sample sass." The Wire (p.55) - "Ditching studio sheen for layers of tape hiss and rugged snare hits, the rough hewn arrangements complement the album's lyrical motifs." CMJ (p.6) - "Dilla's fiercely chopped production integrates punk, industrial and techno with ease." CMJ (p.44) - "[The album plays] on Dilla's strengths as a performer..."
