It’s refreshing to see some soulful R&B/soul come out St. Louis, Missouri instead of the typical pop and raunchy dirty Southern rap. This is one of those mega rare albums you must have or hear! It’s R&B/soul you never knew existed. Just pure R&B/soul harmony singing with lots of ballads. Underground R&B/soul is the best! This album has that amazing early 00’s sound. All 17 tracks are worth listening to and not skipping.
The album was self-produced and self-distributed by the group in 2003. When an album is self-distributed by group or an artist, that album often does not get distribution past their hometown. That is why the album is extremely hard to find. However the album did better overseas in countries such as Japan and Germany than it did in the United States.
Don’t Go uses a soothing rhythmic selection of 2 bongos as the percussion selection. The 2 bongos blend in perfectly with the calm melody.
Juicy is a smooth MIDI keyboard synthesized cover of Mtume - Juicy Fruit. It’s a sensual, sexual ballad about sex. The MIDI keyboard synthesizer used in this is dead give away that this song is an R&B/soul cover of an 80s song.
NS Funk uses a touch of smoothness and funk. Naturally Smooth comes with a smooth sound over the funk sample of Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five - The Message. Naturally Smooth sort of cover the 80s hit called Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five - The Message. Ain’t no fakin’ the funk as Naturally Smooth makes you listen to their smoothness.
I rate this album 5/5*****!!
