This album has some very memorable tracks, the most popular being "Everytime I Close My Eyes." Overall though, the project, in my opinion, showcases Babyface's ability as a writer more than his chops as a singer. "Simple Days" is a wonderful look back on childhood and LL proves why he's one of the best at hip hop love songs with "This is For the Lover in You." The other thing that Edmonds does here really well is merge hip hop and R&B (without getting a singer to just sing over a rap beat). This is a good release, but the best showcase of Babyface's talents are his collaborations with other artists such as Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men.
