Nathan Michael Shawn Wanya [Enhanced]

In the early '90s there was no hotter group in R&B than Boyz II Men. The Philadelphia foursome were smoother than their hometown brand of cream cheese, and they shattered chart records with lush, smartly crafted ballads. They also almost single-handedly brought the art of harmony singing back to pop music and paved the way (don't hate them) for the succeeding onslaught of (lesser) boy bands and teen idols. The big news isn't just that the group is back on the scene, ready to reclaim their crown. It's that this CD is self penned and self produced; and the low-key-but-pointed title indicates that the group, who always relied less on image than on musicality, is ready to prove that substance does matter. That the foursome, who still sound great, wrote this album is no minor detail because, at their height, Boyz II Men were the recipients of some of the best songs that serial hitmakers such as Jam and Lewis and Babyface had in their respective trick bags. On this, their fifth CD, the group works without that creative safety net, and it's clear that the time in the studio with the aforementioned hitmakers was well spent. The single "Passing You By" is heartfelt, sensitive, and anchored with a memorable melody. Better still is "Dreams," a song that, with its twists and turns and heartachey emotion, might be one of Boyz II Men's most beautiful tracks to date. They have created a very soulful, very adult, and very good record. Call it a comeback. --Amy Linden

not a 4 or 5 star effort.......2007-03-29

This is far from a 4 or 5 start outing. However there is the stand out track "I finally know". I play this one several times in a row when it comes ont my mp3 player. Too bad the rest of the CD wasn't this good.

I HAVE EVERY SINGLE BOYZ II MEN CD TO COME OUT SINCE 91`.

THIS CD IS PERFECT FROM TOP 2 BOTTOM;YOU WILL NOTICE THIS ON YOUR FIRST LISTEN OF THIS CD.ALL THE SONG'S FLOW TOGETHER WITH PERFECTION.THE COMBINATION OF THERE VOICES ON THIS CD SOUNDS BETTER THEN ALL OF THERE PREVIOUS ALBUMS.
THIS CD HAS PERFECT BEATS THE BASS IS CRISP,TIGHT & CLEAR;THE HIGHS MAKE YOUR TWEETERS SCREAM;AND THE MID~RANGE MAKES YOU NOT EVEN WANT A EQUALIZER.
JUST PLAIN AND SIMPLE THIS BOYZ II MEN CD IS FANTASTIC.IF YOU PICK IT UP IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE YOU TAKE IT OUT OF YOUR CD PLAYER.

Boyz II Men Are Harmony.......2004-01-08

I love this album! My girl hates it, 'cause I simply overplayed it (sorry for that). The original BIIM harmony (bringing back the cooleyhighharmony days) make this album so unique! It's so much better than "Full circle", which I personally didn't like at all! This album wasn't as successful as II and Evolution, simply because it's not as commercial as these previous releases. Further, promotion for this cd was close to zero. If you like the Boyz you should have all of their albums up to this release. Peace out!

It's Boyz ii Men!.......2004-01-08

I'm sure if the Boyz could pick their favorite Album, this would be it. Why? Because they produced it and gave it their own names. I'm sure I don't need to tell y'all how good it is. The thing I admire most looking back and I still do is how they always keep experimenting with different sounds. In this Album it was latin vibes, like in 'beautiful women'. I still can't believe this wasn't released as a single. There is jazz in 'Step on up' and even though I hated it at first, 'bounce, shake and swing' is a club track (Don't know whether it's techno or house. I respect that. Of course there's 'pass you by' whose instrumental guitar driven arrangement I loved. Good job Shawn. I felt it was courageous to release it as a first single, went unrewarded but the fans loved it, I'm sure. Anyway if you are a Boyz ii men fan, get it, if not, enjoy the ride.

The Best R&B Album EVER..........2003-12-26

All what I can say is that... this album is the best album ever of my all collection, sweet rhymes mixed with legendary voices that sweeps into your soul and never leave you alone without imaginning and illsutrating yourself flying in heaven... Whenever I go out anywhere, this album is like a must to my Walkman, and seriously... Boyz II Men are just growing more and more. I can't tell what's my favorite song, cause every single song is a world by it self... and it is such an amazing combination between all types of R&B styles in just one disc that is really a breath taking... and if you consider yourself a good R&B listenner, you should get this one right streight from the closest store RIGHT NOW !!!

DON'T PASS THIS UP.......2001-01-07

Listen up, Boyz II Men fans! No true fan can pass up the chance to get 3 bonus tracks from this wonderful group! Apart from the 3 extra songs, this album is still something that you do not want to let "pass you by." The song I just mentioned is a hit in the making, as well as "Dreams" and "Do You Remember." "Know What You Want" is also a nice piece. I would have to say that the best song on the album, however, is "Thank You in Advance." The best thing about the Boyz is that they continue to produce genuine music, music that sticks to their style and origins, even and especially in the midst of a market that is constantly producing "teeny-bop" types of boy-band music. The songs on this album are truly soulful, and a couple of them even have some latin undertones (Beautiful Women is a good one). There are a few songs to dance to, a couple to lift your spirit, and lots for the romantic evening! This album has works that actually remind me of several of the songs on "Evolution," but that then makes the record even more enjoyable. If for nothing else, at least buy this record so that you get six things: "Dreams," "Thank You in Advance," "Do You Remember," and the 3 bonus tracks.
