No one doubts Obama's skill on the pen. I also rather enjoyed his wordiness, his back and forth as he grapples with decisions he had to make or trying to explain his thought process. This inside view ofbthe highest office in the land is worth it's salt

The kind of Afrobeat I love grooving to.

Selena keeps her album as stripped down as possible and spending much of the effort in perfecting the songwriting. This is seen best in her song Lose You To Love Me, which many crirtics have touted as the best song on the album. The work done by her writing team, which included Julia Micheals, is near perfect. The theme-thread through the album is also intriguing as she starts out talking about her emotional and relationship troubles but then gradually decides to have more fun and concentrate on loving herself. Selena is also really comfortable in her voice and did not need any acrobatics to make her smooth vocals stand out. Though I would have loved a bit of acrobatics, ballad-ish even, just to see how that came out. Kudos also to her production team. The records were spotless, clear, unhurried, smooth, delectable and tantalizing. Ian Kirkpatrick, Jon Bellion, Kid Cudi and all the team outdid themselves. Every artiste needs a production team like this. The whole work is so coherent and is "perfectly balanced, as all things should be". It is a sweet aromatic waft to my senses. I love it! Well done, Selena!
