Album Reviews: Vibe (10/01, p.150) - 4 discs out of 5 - "...Like Dom P, Face just gets better...Babyface purists will have a hard time denying the album's self-assured flair....the adult-contemporary slow jams raise the roof..."
Advantages: Good music to chill to! Disadvantages: Lyrics sometimes don't make sense!!!!!
...As you can probably tell I think Wyclefs new album is very good. It might not be to every ones taste. But if you like a slow style hip hop which isn't to in your face then this could be the album for you. With lyrics that are quite catchy, this album will make you want to listen to it again and again. But with one of the songs I have found that its hard to get out of your head, It doesn't matter featuring the Rock, is one that might drive you crazy. But apart from that I throughly recommend The Ecleftic....

Advantages: Good voice,chilled perfect for mellow sundays,soulful Disadvantages: still not quite sure about them ...drilled at plain chart success or more?
...So kubb what do they offer? Strong smooth vocals well produced album and a cut above the rest of bands.
There is an extra element to them that i cant quite put my finger on.
Pick of the tracks on this album is wicked soul and the highly advertised track grow which is a slow moving ballad.
I think this does appeal to the more grown up sector of pop music buyers a mature album. Shades of u2(without you) and a less in your face maroon five.
Many hardened rock fans could well see this as dribble but there is undoubtedly talent here! I await to see how they turn out in the years ahead but i can see them selling quite a few records and even being quite successful in the us!!
Time will tell! I wish them luck. Worth a listen!...

Advantages: Brings a new light, inspirational words Disadvantages: music and lyrics sometimes faulter,
..., but then dies down into heavy metal. This heavy intro followed by heavy metal is common to nearly all songs. Some like, Will you, maintains a heavy rock scene. Will You is about remember the good times and the love that was once shared. A few of the songs deal with Love on this track, by far the best is Waiting On Today. It is about sticking through with something and not running away from it. Its about facing it and moving on.
The booklet inside it is rahter interesting, display all the lyrics which is nice to know, a good layout, has some good detailed graphics. Very tribal designs.
The Disc also features 2 bonus songs. One is from the Matrix Soundtrack, a impressive song to listen to. the lyrics are interesting. The second bonus track is from The Phatheads (australia) the song is quirky, more rap than the rest of the disc but a nice ending...
