The material on this album is very weak. Going out on his own like this only highlights Michael's lack of real songwriting skills - his three-black- notes-on-a-piano playground chants don't hold the attention, and it all begins to sound very samey. It sounds like an attempt to recreate Immigrant, but without Jay's tunes to give it that Jezebel sound, there's really no point. He should try a new approach, instead of trying to recapture the past.
