See, I actually adore the STYLE album and all the cheesy Dallas Austin American R&B, as well as what she did as SUITE CHIC... also White Light, Girl Talk...
then all of a sudden her music just started to get very clanky and production-driven. and this is my problem with most popular music after, I'd say, 2005... you can have a "sick beat" (or what you think is a "sick beat," when it's just a random assortment of noise) but if there's no melody, you already lost me.
