I have been a big B2M fan through the years and was disappointed by their last 3 outings, so naturally i was enthused when i heard they were recording an album or original tracks.
In the past few years i have felt that the group were happy with coasting off past successes and to churn out covers so was happy to see they decided to give it one last crack of the whip, and i wasnt disappointed. Alot of the tracks were of a high quality and of a much better quality then i have come to expect from other 'old school' RnB artists.
My favourite song on the album is 'I Shoulda lied'
And there is a throwback to the old tracks with some little surprise.

There had been so much talk about B2M reuniting with Babyface. However, Babyface's presence on this album is very much inconspicuous - actually he seems to have been overshadowed by Tim and Bob's productions - for example on tracks such as So Amazing and Slowly. I honestly couldn't put my finger on the chemistry that once existed between the group and the production maestro - even on their single, the mediocre 'One Up For Love'. I hoped for their long-time collaborators - Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis to lend some production on the album, but maybe it could have turned out the same way as it did with Babyface. Moving forward, perhaps B2M need to keep a formula of finding harmonious productions that blend well with their excellent voices - it proved to be difficult on this album
Maybe as a die-hard B2M fan my expectations were too high - but in short, none of the original songs on this album blew me waway like the first time i listened to classics such as; Girl in the Life Magazine, On Bended Knee, Four Seasons of Loneliness, I Finally Know, The Colour of Love ... the list goes on.

If like me, you've had enough of hearing the last most influential vocal groups of our time (Has there been any other after them?) doing cover versions of classics, you will welcome this album with open arms. It may not be their best work, but there are no singing groups that can be compared to Boyz II Men. They always shine on ballads and are weak on up-tempo songs. The harmonies are timeless and my favourite is "Slowly". The music and melody is simply captivating and so sensual that it takes you in the bedroom from wherever you are. "More than you'll ever know", which features the guest vocals of Gap Band' Uncle Charlie Wilson, is the lead single and rightly so. "Will you be there" is vintage Boyz II Men and it beggars belief to see so many artists flooding the charts with Autotune saturated songs when these 3 angels sing their hearts out. So a must have for lovers of good RNB music.
Also check out "Not like you" on CD2 - if you've got it - which is a beautiful that has no place in the re-recording of their classics. They have not improved on these songs, which is a good thing. At the end of the day, musical genius like Prince, they are not. But when it comes to harmonies, vocal gymnastics, they are the TEMPLATE. Better than the Temptations...
