Yay arabic influence in So Nice Boom Boom Boys sounds really good eww, autotune in Slow Everyday reminds me of Koi no Tsubomi for some reason I hope Escalate will.....well, escalate towards the end of the song, because it does sound promising No Man's Land sounds wonderful Lay Down sounds like it belongs in a remix album Love Technique sounds like kpop with repetitive lyrics etc
all in all I'm surprised there doesn't seem to be any traditional Japanese sounds in the songs, considering her album name....

Alriiiight, FINALLY!
Here are the previews one by one, IMO:
So Nice ft Mr Blistah - 7.5/10 Hehheh, Candy Part II? Sounds pretty cool!
Boom Boom Boys - 8/10 I love that feel! Rocky and groovy at the same time!
Slow ft Omarion - 9.5/10 OMG, epicness to the max! This sounds like an AMAZING R&B ballad! I actually love the strategic use of autotune.
Brave - 9/10 Lovely laid-back feel. Great song to just chill out to!
Everyday - 9.5/10 Yessssh!! I've been waiting for that poppish song cuz there's always one on every album!
Escalate - 8/10 A very Kumi-ish piece. What can I say? Very expected =P
No Man's Land - 10/10 HOLY SHIZZABOOOM There is so much epicness in this!
Lay Down - 7/10 Not sure if I'm feeling the style of this song. It's actually still pretty catchy, but pales in comparison to the other tracks!
Love Technique - 7.5/10 Interesting... Not an entire fan of the whole repetitive trend...
All in all? Most of the tracks are actually VERY promising. I may actually buy this.

ikr? I hate overuse of auto tune, it sounds like a kid decided to play with a Casio and thought they were creating a masterpiece. all in all I'm surprised there doesn't seem to be any traditional Japanese sounds in the songs, considering her album name.... oh yeah tru dat.

Rolling Stones Japan only rated the album3 out of 5 stars. Ppfftt. I am not surprised, though. I wouldn't have thought the Rolling Stones magazines would be that interested in pop artists. All the previews are so awesome!! I haven't had the previews on repeat so much since well, I can't remember! hahaha, I am looking forward to this album so much, I haven't been this excited since Kingdom. People seem to be a bit disappointed with ESCALATE...BUT I am holding my opinion back for now (Even though I love what I hear already!) because if you listen at the end, it sounds most promisingly about to go into an Epic chorus, so I shall wait for the full. But OMG NO MAN'S LAND!! <33333333333333 She better sing that live, I don't care is her baby bump is so large she's falling off her chair, she sings that just once and I won't ask anything else for a year. D:

-You are not alone (acoustic) Very cheerful with the others voices singing along. 6.5/10
-ESCALATE I don't know what to say yet.
-No Mans Land This is awesome. Omg can't wait to have this in full. 8/10
-Lay Down As ESCALATE.
-Love Technique My favourite. This cuteness sgcudvachsgvytgvd 9/10
