Query: Album of the Year

"Mama's Gun" is the bomb---plain and simple. I own, listen and enjoy Jill, Macy, Rashaan, et al., but Ms. Badu has blown me away with this disc. The lyrics, production, her voice--everything is first rate. I have heard from friends and read on this board criticism of "Mama's Gun". Although I trully feel everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, I wonder if the critics were expecting "Baduizm II"? Instead of merely recycling the old, Erykah clearly takes her artistry to the next level (even the samples from "Baduizm" seem fresh and new).
