I'm decent at singing, but I REALLY gotta give it up to J. H

"I would rate my singing at a 2.75/5 and J's at a solid 3.75/5.



The material here is kinda lackluster. Bed? Who cares? We all have sexual desires and have sex. Nobody cares! Where is the substance that R&B & Soul used to possess. I don't get it?



Come again, J? Not to mention he's a fine mofo. But that doesn't constitute for his music at all. And he swears a LOT. I'm all for self-expression and I would never buy an edited CD but he swears for absolutely NO good reason.



I guess this CD isn't a super-throwaway like a lot of the mess is today. Somebody laced the beats (is that a surprise these days?) and the lyrics are OK. It's not Rap, Hip-Hop or honky-dory Country so it gets props for not being that!



In fact, this CD isn't bad at all. It's borderline fantastic. He just needs to broaden his horizons, lyrically. But if He writes then I welcome Him to the deceiving yet rewarding game, that is music!! (Hugs J)
