Momma Knows You can sample these tracks on Will Smith’s official website http://www.willsmith.com by clicking on the Discography link. Ok so a track by track analysis: (1) BORN TO REIGN This is a dramatic opening to the album with strong lyrics which is reminiscent of Eminem’s style of wrapping in “I am Whatever You Say I am.” Not a bad opening in fact I enjoyed it though the strings (not being very musical I’d guess they were from a Cello or Bass violin) in the back were beginning to annoy me. Luckily this is a sufficient intro to the album clocking in at 1:53. (2) ACT LIKE YOU KNOW This isn’t a bad track either but it the music in the background reminds me too much... Read review

..., with Jay Kay's inimitable voice carrying the intelligent and incisive lyrics in his own special way. The music has a fairly unique sound too, with some tracks being more original than others, but all being superb when it comes down to it.

Keep It Moving This song is slightly more upbeat and has a happier vibe to it than the previous song! It is quite a simple song which contains a lot of layered vocals, it is like many Mary songs very catchy! It fits its placing on the album and is a track I listen to often. It is all about people moving on with their negative attitudes, which sounds like a typical Mary song to me! Written By: Mary J Blige and Bruce... Read review
