Whitney Houston - Is It Worth It?

The album leaked or so alleged. Accidental? Strategically? Intentional? Whether or not one of these adverbs implemented the 'leak' is a debate for those who bathe in semantics. The case is clear; we've been presented a glimpse of the entire I Look To You album. Each song on the album complements each other. The smooth transition of one song moving to the next cooperates fully. This blog, however, is to present one of the eleven songs on the album: Worth It.

The song opens in chorus, wide and telling, coasting above a seemingly 90's R&B base percussion and piano riffs. Imagine sitting in Starbucks and eavesdropping on a woman telling her girlfriend of the power to grasp relationship without mistake, using colorful language and a soft caring voice. It's beautiful.

With that in mind, the phrase of the first verse, 'it's a beautiful thing, when it's share between two...' is quintessential Whitney Houston. Indeed, her voice has changed but with warrior valor she has a adjusted and that vibrato (we fell in love with in I'll Always Love You) is unmistakably unchanged, meaning, the only thing that has changed is the key. Many people say this song is Whitney's version of Mary J. Blige's Be Without You. One must agree the groove is undeniable and as Californian's in the bay area proclaim, "This song goes."

The album is solid. Based on the muscle of promotion, the strength of the comeback and (let's face it) her own name alone, the album is guarantees platinum sales. The hope is that the leak doesn't stifle sales. I don't think it will. She's Whitney Houston - You betta recognize!
