I have been following Namie since she released Say the Word, and i have always enjoyed the western feeling of Namieīs music. But lately i donīt know, but i feel like she has nothing new to offer. And i think that FEEL is a good album, its just that I can imagine 30 western pop singers singing those songs, I see absolutely no personality in it. Its great that she is still popular and sells like crazy, but I would love it if she experimented a little bit more with her music, like she did after PLAY.

I feel you. FEEL is perfectly fine, it's a good album, nothing to say: but that's why I said I feel she didn't master the mainstream EDM pop yet. She managed nice, but it's different from making it completely yours. But I think she's going there too, she just needs time, and I guess she's having a great time trying! Her experimenting began with Uncontrolled, so she has all the time improving and putting her spark in this style as well.
