Without any doubt this is the best soul/r&b album of the 2000's period. I've been listening to it on and off since it first came out and I'm still digging it. Why it didn't do better commercially is a complete mystery to me. Bilal Oliver is a true original who hopefully will go on to more success and acclaim. Just to illustrate to you how much I like this man's music, I've bought CD's I normally wouldn't bother with simply because he appears on one track(Fighting Temptations, Tweet). Anyway, if you enjoy Jill Scott, Musiq, D'Angelo etc, then you should definitely pick this up. It won't disappoint you in the least, not like most R&B albums(I won't mention any names....coughcoughAshanticoughcough).
