K - Ci n JoJo - X: LP (MCA)

 

After their break up from Jodeci you would think that would be the last you'd hear from these guys but truth be told all have gone on to do rather well with the exception of the Hailey brothers who has gone on to have modest success on the R+B charts

With this their 3rd album for MCA K-ci and JoJo has not only matured as artists but truly shines as vocalists, case and point the opening track 'Honest Lover ' where the opening minute and a half is a acoustic string and piano fueled by their strong acappella. Next is 'Wanna do you right ' another strong move slow groover which borrows from Luther Ingram's 'If loving you you is wrong '. Running in 3rd is 'Get back' another ballad that studies the relations of romance. A track that shines among the rest is 'Thug n u thug n me ' that features the late but great Tupac Shakur that has radio play written all over it.

The lead off single is 'Crazy ' a dandy of a ballad that the lads wrote and co - produced by Darrel Delite Allamby, I can see this being added to radio formats across the board going in heavy rotation.

Other notables include 'All the things I should of done ', 'If it's going to work ', 'I can't find the words ', 'Something inside of me ' and 'One last time '. All round a nice album that will please all of their loving fans. On a footnote be on the lookout the reunion album that will grace record shops and stores everywhere spring of next year.  A Ty- D Pick.
