She worked with the ridiculous (sorry fans but) Timbaland, Justin Timberlake and others, and got a fuzzy album. Serious, WTF was that? The quality of her music was totally lost for me. I miss American Life days.

I agree that, things are starting to sound the same, specifically especially rap music which I usually dislike anyway. But I don't know, all the artists I listen to (female R&B and pop singers) are all dishing it out while over in Japland only a select few to me are keeping my interest. And yeah, Hard Candy was pretty horrible. I gave my copy to my cousin. Timbaland's sounds is SO over unless he can prove he's not just a one trick pony. Example? The music in Hard Candy ended up sounding like Nelly Furtado's Loose rejects.
