We're four tracks in now and I can't even think of anything to write. It's not even bad enough to write bad things about it; it's just, well, bland and boring to me. Of course, I'm no fan of R&B, but I find it hard to latch onto anything at all here. As it goes on I just get more bored and there's still nothing to write about. Someone guests on a rap on one of the tracks, but I really don't care who, or on what song. For the sake of clarity though, let's see: it's Ludacris, on “Grey”. Kind of an appropriate title, given how little impression this album is making on me.
Okay! Finally! Something that wakes me up. “Worlds Apart” ia a nice slow, smoky blues number with some fine jazzy piano in it and also violin. If all the tracks were like this, then this album would be getting a much higher rating, but sadly we're already back to mediocrity with the sub-par “Weekend”; “Higher” is not too bad, but then “Loving You” re-establishes the poor quality and to be honest I'm surprised I managed to get through this without bailing.
