A dazzling fusion of neo-soul, jazz, R&B, and future-funk. Expanding on the groundwork of their debut, the album sprawls across 70 minutes of lush grooves, intricate musicianship, and Nai Palm’s soulful, idiosyncratic vocals.
Jazz serves as the base, with Q Tip and his band using its colorful and intricate chord progressions to explore funk, rap, rock, R&B and soul - sometimes all on the same song.
Toni Braxton has such a phenomenal voice, and her second album is a wonderful exploration into R&B and contemporary soul, there's something so magic about it.
On this record she managed to move on with the times and incorporate more uptempo R&B music with hip hop elements while still maintaining her Adult Contemporary sound.
