I wouldn't necessarily say that she's gone "downhill," she has just changed her style of music to my disliking. For me, I was getting turned off with the release of Secret. I hate the album, I only enjoyed "kiss o' kill" out of every track. But, I loved the GUILTY album. After GUILTY is when I started noticing it's not the same Ayu from the I am... days. She's growing. She's not in her early 20s anymore and I would be more turned off is she acted like she was.
Though, I am still waiting for her to release another unforgettable track that I can call an Ayu classic.
