    I don't have a Spotify account, yet I was able to listen to a few tracks.

    Anita Baker's "Rapture" is not quite my cup of tea. Rich, lush and slightly overproduced, it would however make ideal listening in the car on long late night drives.

    5/10 from me.

    Worse than I expected with awful mid 80's production. This style of music is not my cup of tea anyway but don't like Anita Baker's voice. 2/10.

    Wow, that is what I call an 80s album, "takes me back" as they say. Smooth is definitely the word, in fact there is absolutley nothing to hold on to! I think if you are sitting relaxing with a bourbon whilst wearing your kimono surrounded by black ash and stainless steel furniture then this could be the ticket. I voted 6, not terrible but an acquired taste.

    Sorry, it's not for me at all. Smooth, over-produced and not memorable. I did try! 1/10.
