Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The first single off of R. Kelly's TP-2.com, "I Wish," might be a moving memorial to a dead friend, but the main theme on his latest CD is sex. The first tip-off that Kelly has left the spirit world to concentrate on nookie is the CD title, which refers back to his mid-'90s smash 12 Play. Back then, Kelly made his name with a take-no-prisoners (if somewhat obvious) sensuality. Yet now this loveman sounds conflicted and ill at ease. He might offer to "Strip for You," he might lay claim for a girl who's "Like a Real Freak," he might even promise his lady "The Greatest Sex," but his manner is so tentative and so self-reflective it makes one wonder how hot the loving could really be. Kelly has been expanding his creative repertoire over the course of his past two CDs, and his latest motif is a sort of stream-of-consciousness style that constantly returns to the main thrust of the argument: a circular groove. At its best (the triumphant "I Wish"), this style is emotional and emphatic. At its worst, or when Kelly insists on using it over and over, it's the musical equivalent of having a drunk poke you in the arm repeatedly to make his point. On "Fiesta," Kelly literally builds a song out of this annoying rhythmic tic, and it's like he's on a treadmill, never getting anywhere. TP-2.com is raw and romantic, but it becomes too redundant to truly sustain the passion. --Amy Linden

Modern Marvin Gaye.......2007-02-01

This is absolutley the best r&b album. You have to admire R's honesty in his lyrics. Lyrics such as "when you leave up out my room, you're gonna be wakin bowlegged". This is the best music to f%$! to. Love it!!

12 Play Part 2.......2006-03-07

R. Kelly's 12 Play from 1993 was one of his best albums in the catalogue, the second version of it released in 2000 wasn't as good as his albums flwless first album but it was good nonetheless. The both album's main theme is sex and despite some non-sexual songs like "I Wish" and "Storm Is Over" this song is mostly about that subject. While it isn't as good as 12 Play it's great compared to T-3 and an album to put on the purchase list.

It all starts with "Strip For You", a laid-back sexy song that suits R. Kelly perfect. "R&B Thug" is slicker and more uptempo, "The Greatest Sex" is fullfilling the album concept, but it's not among the better songs of this album. "I Don't Mean It" and "Just Like That" are both slow jams, the first one however is more romantic though. "Just Like A Freak" is another sex song, If you hadn't understood that? but this song feautures rap and latin influenced music and it's unique to this album. "Fiesta" is also latin-influenced and on this album version Jay-Z doesn't appear. "Don't You Say No" yet another so-so slow jam.

"One Me" is also a slow jam, I think this is one of the better. "I Wish" is defenitely the best, but ironically it's not about sex at all, but about friends that died. A hit single and a very touching mid tempo song when R. Kelly shows his best side. "A Woman's Threat" is a midtempo, and also single released I think. "I Decided" continues the sexy trend. "I Mean (I Don't Mean It)" is a midtempo where he perform backround lyrics for himself. "All I Really Want" is great soul, but it sounds more like a song made for Tyrese then the usual R. Kelly song. "Feeling On Ya Booty" is surprisingly good, but dirty. The last song "Storm Is Over" is the second best, only after "I Wish" and neither a sex song, it reminds me of "I Believe I Can Fly", a ballad that also feautures gospel choirs.

So, what's the verdict?. A good album defenitely, You knew the dilemma already before you bouht it, so don't expect this to be a "R Kelly" or "R" but surprisingly enough it features a few non sex single and they are actually some of the best on the entire album. It may feature a few too many songs (17 if we count the remix of "I Wish" and some are not as good as others, but on the other hand the high points lift this album to great votes. Not one of his best, but not too far behind. If You're New start with the eponymous "R. Kelly" or "R".

At its best, it's amazing..........2007-07-10

R. Kelly's 2000 album was one of his most successful and widely influential albums, opening the star to a whole new fanbase, mostly thanks to the excellent hit singles and their following remixes. Following the epic double album R. from 1998, he returned two years later with another very ambitious album. This album is musically as soulful as any R. Kelly project, and the pervading theme through the whole album is sex. The majority of the songs are bedroom jams or vocal conversations with women, his seductive style being the main vibe. But he's at his best when he lets his spiritual side show, and the gospel-tinged tracks are the best on the album. There are five or six songs on here that are among the very best of R. Kelly's career. These songs are uplifting, inspiring, and motivational, otherwise clever and the type of song that exhibits his immense talent. He really is one of the finest talents in R&B, and there are more than a few instances where he flashes his amazing potential. However, between the best tracks, there is a steady supply of definite filler. The album is a lengthy 19 tracks long, and it would be a much superior album if it were trimmed to about 12 (like its predecessor, 12 Play). The first half of the album contains way too many forgettable and predictable tracks, while the second half is stacked with great material. The production is the type of big-budget music you'd expect on an R. Kelly album. This album contains some of the very finest material of R. Kelly's great career, but be ready to sit through some substantial filler to get to it.

The introductory title track opens the album, a short and upbeat opener. "Strip For You" is a forgettable sex song, some early skip material before the very good "R&B Thug." This song is well produced, and R. Kelly sings in a fast, staccatoed style that works nicely. I don't like "The Greatest Sex," a fairly redundant and unmemorable song. "I Don't Mean It" and "Just Like That" are much better; while they're not among the album's best songs, they're solid and enjoyable cuts. "Like a Real Freak" and "Fiesta" are both Latin-influenced club songs, both fall under skip material for me, I wish the Jay-Z collaborated "Fiesta (Remix)" were included on the tracklist instead. "Don't You Say No" emits some nice musical vibes, and "One Me" is a pretty good song too. The album gets great at about this point. The beautiful "I Wish," arguably the finest song of his storied career, is a sad yet uplifting song to a lost friend, speaking of life since their passing. "A Woman's Threat," however, is among the worst songs on this album, six banal and repetitive minutes, and his verses sound like a shopping list. "I Decided" is among my favorites, with a great hook and good performance, "I Mean (I Don't Mean It)" is a little upbeat and funky. I think my favorite song here might be the touching remix to "I Wish," titled "I Wish (To the Homies That We Lost)." R. Kelly does not make remixes like most artists, and his remixes are entirely new compositions of songs, with the only similarities being the similar subject matter. "To the Homies That We Lost" is equally as effective as the original "I Wish," a more personal narrative to his lost friend. The production is beautiful, and this song is excellent. The pretty good "All I Want" comes next, followed by the wonderful "Feelin' on Yo Booty." This infamous song showcases R. Kelly at his seductive best, being humorous and clever despite maybe crossing the line a little here and there. The album closes with another of the finest songs in his discography, the motivational "The Storm Is Over," a well-written gospel-tinged track, complete with a dramatic key change at the end.

When this album is good, it's great, but at its worst, it's redundant and forgettable. One can't deny that this contains some of the very best songs R. Kelly has to offer, and for that fact alone this is an album I recommend. R. Kelly is one of the finest talents in R&B, and much of this album is a great example of this. More economical buyers might just want to buy the half-dozen or so best songs, but overall this is a worthy purchase to make.

One of my faves.......2005-12-10

I've always loved R Kelly. He is so talented and his voice is smooth and silky. I could listen to him over and over. This cd is great - like all the others. I especially love All I Really Want, The Greatest Sex and Like a Real Freak. I think he's always getting better and this is no exception. Although he'll never have a better song than Down Lo (in my opinion), this is still one amazing album. I love it.

Classic Album from the Genius Of Our Time.......2005-12-09

this Album just gets better&better with time for me.so many topics&things on here."I don't Mean it" with the chorus coming in the background is Classic."The Greatest Sex" is a smooth Track.dig the arrangements.the strings on this Album are tight.R.Kelly vocally is on his game all through here."I Wish" very haunting&Hits home on so many levels. "A Woman's threat" is classic as well.very haunting chord structure. His Musical Landscape knows no limits. I Give the Brother Props for doing His Steppers National Anthem.glad to see a Soul Brother turn the National Anthem out. that was the tightest National Anthem since Marvin Gaye did it.R.kelly is the Best Musician on the Planet.nobody can beat you musically in as many ways as R.Kelly can. "feelin On Yo Booty" is the Cut. that is the slow Jam Club cut right there.the Brother's Music covers so many Musical Bases.in 20 years time folks gonna look back&Say He was a Musical Monster.this album is Very Influential:I hear Vocal runs that He has done on here that other Artists have since used.this Album deals with Lose of Family,Relationships,dealing with self&purpose&finding yourself. He creates so many storys.Musically It's R.kelly&then there is Evrybody else. Props to the King of Music for always keeping it Real.
