My favorite male R&B album (aside from aijuswannasing) of all time. Heaven, Show Me, Stereo, Each Day Gets Better, Where Did My Baby Go, PDA...so many slappers, clearly JL’s best album. Get Lifted is cool but once again took things to the next level. Less of that annoying growling technique he did on the first album. Sadly, JL started catering to cacs with garbage like “all of me”. But this album still gets heavy play from me.

Im torn between this and his first album being his best. Maxine is my favorite song. I love the upbeat tempo to contrast the delusion he was facing.


If they had given it proper promo it could’ve been the modern update to The Girl from Ipanema, as soon as I heard it I was instantly reminded of the song.

I don’t get how he changed direction so much but this was also my fav album of his, I have the CD lying around somewhere.

Heaven
Another Again
Maxine
Save Room
Edit: I forgot Again was on this album instead of the first, I enjoy it as well.

Once again is probably my favorite JL album, aside from Love In The Future (yeah I think it’s underrated).. but the album isn’t THAT good to be considered top 2.

With that said. “Again” is a gorgeous ass song. One of my favorites from him.

I don’t trust most of their opinions on R&B tbh.
