1. "Too Hot" feat. AV: It's a great intro to this album with crazy fly futuristic funk spaced out 3000 sounds. Grab your UFO's and ride with a bad chick . You'll know what i mean. I think this song was meant for that girl Dalvin was cuddling in the "Every Moment" video. Lyrical skills from AV (up and coming new artist) gave it a West Coast feel.
2. "Sho Out & Sho Out Re-Edit" feat. Liana Banks: A ride or die Bonnie & Clyde R&Street grown and sexy mid tempo masterpiece. K-Ci and Liana trade bars like Jay & Biggie did on "Brooklyn's Finest". Spittin mad game back and forth. A bedroom battle of words to massage their intellect as well as their loins.
3. "Checkin For You": Lets fly from Los Angeles to Miami. Now picture yourself in a luxury suite overlooking South Beach. The mood is relaxed, comfy and cozy. Sun is beaming , your lady is glowing and glistening from the rays coming through the window.You come up from behind, embrace her gently while planting a warm loving kiss on her neck. Both look deep in each others eyes and say "Lets stay like this forever"
4. "Every Moment": This was a track DeVante was sitting on for almost a decade. I have seen the title on ASCAP for over 6 years now. As the first single to go to video, "Every Moment" is a sequel to "All My Life". This is a great track for every father to walk their daughter down the aisle to giver her away to the new man in her life. It could also be used for anniversaries, romantic nights, and renewed vows. You know every wedding DJ is going to play this song.
5. "Nobody Wins"- Brings out the issue of domestic violence, something most of us have experienced in our lives. It needs to be addressed and corrected now, so we don't pass it on to future generations . Verbal resolution is what adults do, not hit each other. Call: 1-800-799-SAFE if you're being abused.
6. "Those Things" - Timbaland and DeVante mix the old smooth grooves from Da Bassment with an ultra fast stutter step from 1997. If you're a true Jodeci die hard fan, you'll be able to sing along to this track. It has lyrics we recognize from past albums. So get close, close,get close...
7. "Incredible" - Timbovante is stamped all over this one. I think Static/Major's spirit was floating in the studio while they were recording this. Definitely could hear Playa sing this too. What's so genius about this track is the layered vocals that sound like they were trying to sing a different song over the original song. Never heard this style before. Artists beware , you'll probably have to go back to the drawing board. Jodeci got this new R&Street style on lock now. As the song says..ITS INCREDIBLE!!!!!
8. "Jennifer"- This song was off of Jodeci's first Demo tape (that is sitting in somebody's attic or memory box). It was written for one of the guys girlfriend. I think it was DeVante, i'm not really sure. Jennifer sounds like something One Republic or Nephew would sing. It has that timeless rock/pop appeal to it . In the words of De La Soul " Jennifer, Oh..Jenny"
9. Stress Reliever- Maan this takes me back to Da Bassment days. Almost sounds like a TSTATH track that never made the final cut. Good to hear DeVante singing all over this groove. It reminds me what i was thinking and feeling back in 95 when i first looked into my ladies eyes under the moonlight at Gregg Lake in Antrim,NH (Google it and visit). It was July 18th 1995 to be exact. That was the same day Jodeci released their third album. Nothing like new love in your life, the summer breeze and a Jodeci tape. Ahhhh love was in the air.
10. "Body Parts" feat. Mila J- You're diggin on me, i'm diggin on you. Your body got me going crazy. I think i want you to have my baby. Tell me all the freaky things you want me to do on your body parts, body parts ...ooooh yeaaaahhh!!! J-O-D-E-C-I got me freakin on the weekend. So i let my body do the speakin. See what this song does to me. Got me writing my own lyrics to whisper in your ear..DON'T TALK JUST LISTEN
