*-Recommended Tracks



Green Light (ft. André 3000)

[7/10]

This is his first single. I think it's one of the better songs in the album.

-------------------------------------------------------------
It's Over" (ft. Kanye West)

[5/10]

Even with Kanye West help, this song sucks. =.="

-------------------------------------------------------------
Everybody Knows

[5.5/10]

The starting was ok. BUt come towards the ending, bleh.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Quickly (ft. Brandy)

[5/10]

Brandy does NO HELP to savage the song. >,<
-------------------------------------------------------------
Cross The Line

[7.5/10]

I think this might be the nicest track that I can find in the whole album. His voice match the lyrics and tune.

-------------------------------------------------------------
No Other Love (ft. Estelle)

[4/10]

Remember American Boy? Yeah. She's the singer and he's the loser in the song. >,< Wait. I don't make sense.

-------------------------------------------------------------
This Time

[8/10]

FINALLY. Something decent. It reminds me of "Finally" by Fergie. Ballard? I can say that for this song. The piano complements really well with his voice. Much much much better than the other songs. And the lyrics are really meaningful.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Satisfaction

[4.5/10]

Mundane. Like the other songs.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Take Me Away

[3/10]

The starting sucks. He goes "La La La La"... >,<
-------------------------------------------------------------
Good Morning

[3/10]

What is the point of this song??? =/
-------------------------------------------------------------
I Love, You Love

[2/10]

I think this is the worse song. Really boring.
-------------------------------------------------------------
If You're Out There

[5/10]

I can't say if I love this song or not. Decide for yourself.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Can't Be My Lover (Bonus Track)

[6.5/10]

There's a nice tempo to it. Haha.
-------------------------------------------------------------
It's Over (Teddy Riley Remix) (Bonus Track)

[7/10]

This version is even better than the one featuring Kanye West.

Overall, I don't really like his vocals. It's too mundane? And I don't think I gave a really fair assessment of this album cos it was really rushed and everything. But it's not worth your money unless you really like his voice. It's not my liking.
