Black Out is awesome

I really love the beginning

I love BLACK OUT.

Although I'm a bit annoyed by Lil' Wayne's voice but I can just ignore that part because the song is very awesome

JackieRos · #**234** 21st March 2011, 12:23 AM

I'm going to listen to it when a real rip comes out

I never heard of her collab songs before except the new ones and the one with ravex
so this is like a new namie album for me ahahhah

Does anybody else think that the bass line in "Wet n Wild" during the verses sounds like "Dirrty" by Christina Aguilera?

Kazeyomi · #**236** 21st March 2011, 02:18 AM

I've listened to half of these collaborations before, overall Checkmate is a awesome album. I really enjoyed it. The only one which I dislike is BLACK OUT. I find it quite boring :/.
I remember a different version of Wet n Wild though, maybe it was sang just by Heartsdales only (a little OT, but gosh I miss them so much).
Must save money for this album

RikkuK · #**237** 21st March 2011, 02:16 PM

Very american album...not sure how I feel about the new songs but whats good is GREAT.

talent < producing

xLuna&1LOVE · #**238** 21st March 2011, 10:31 PM

Black out is seriously boring. And the more I listen to it, the more I start to like only Lil Waynes part in it. But still... oh my god. Nah, not her best song on the album.

I like wonder woman, then #1, then make it happen, then unusual, then black out.

And good for Namie! Japan can really use that money!
