I hope the cd is better than the cd artwork. Damn... Is that an official cover?

Should've used this as the album cover. Not official but looks hell of a lot better!

How exactly did she "steal" black music?:confused: Is it because her music has some flavor in it?

That tired, old bullshit is played out. It's just an excuse for jealous black music fans to bitch about more successful and more talented white artists.

Fact is, with all the "hype" around Joss Stone since her early teens, she's been pretty much a "commercial" BUST singing R&B and soul. So all of her "appropriation" hasn't gotten her beyond the "freak" stage with the public. She can't help how she sounds (she was a child prodigy with a naturally bluesy voice) but all the "appropriation" in the world won't get you anywhere if you don't have GOOD songs and production, not to mention popular appeal.

You don't see fools like you complaining about all the white artists who BOMB and disappear doing R&B. You only crawl out of the woodwork when some white artist is actually GOOD (or BETTER than a lot of black artists doing the same stuff). fact is, ANYONE can do ANY kind of music. No one "owns" it. The only question should be how well they do it. (And if music companies favor one artist over another due to marketablity, then tough. That's show business.)

I'm listening to this albulm now and she is paying more homage and respect to 'black music' and it's rich legacy than 90% of the current crop of top selling black artist out now......plus the album is sounding fucking good so far.
