..... It's all about love May 9, 2000 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
After dropping three albums with Devante Swing and Dalvin, K-Ci & Jo Jo decided to step out on their own. The first K Ci & Jo Jo song that I ever heard was a song called "Beautiful" off of the 1st "New York Undercover" soundtrack. After hearing the song a few times, I realized that K Ci & Jo Jo were bound to make a great album. Then they released "How Could You" which was on the "Bulletproof" soundtrack. This was also tight but not as good as "Beautiful". About a month before the album was to drop they came out with "You Bring Me Up". This song was good but it didn't present K Ci & Jo Jo at their best, which is "bringing" the slow jams. I'm sure that there are only a "handful" of people that bought Jodeci's albums for fast songs. They got their big break when the song "All My Life" was released to radio. This was their breakthrough song and lead "Love Always" to its multiplatinum status. I remember when I was driving to work one time and I heard "All My Life" on three radio stations at one time. This song is a perfect example about what this album is about. "Love Always" is just that, it's all about love. Jodeci had a since of "raunchiness" with them. Songs like "Alone", "Freek N You", and "Won't Waste Your Time" are tight but you can't sing those songs all your life. It seemed to me that K Ci & Jo Jo wanted to break away from that, atleast for a moment, to make a whole album of songs like "I'm Still Waiting", "Cry For You", "My Heart Belongs 2 U" and "Love U 4 Life". "Love Always" is a brilliant presentation of that. Songs like "Last Night's Letter", "Just For Your Love", "How Many Times" and K Ci's remake of LTD's "Love Ballad" are all examples. The main reason why I like this album is because it takes a break from most of R&B's sexual overtones of today. I like artists like Dru Hill, Joe, Silk, and Chico DeBarge but every now and then you just want to listen to some good "love" music. "Love Always" is a good example of that.

Not to be funny, but I wonder if the group should have just been called K-Ci & JoJo even when there were four members. Anyway, when the Hailey brothers first released this album, some people were mad because there weren't any songs like "Freek'n You" on here. Maybe listeners weren't ready for them to mature just yet? In any case, this album was great.The best songs would have to be "Still Waiting" and, of course, "All My Life". "Last Night's Letter" is also a winner, and they do a great job with their rendition of Mtume's "Love Ballad". And until now, I never paid that much attention to the lyrics in "Don't Rush". They're actually kind of funny. My brother and sister never liked "You Bring Me Up". I used to love that song, but now that I think about it, it kind of sounds like a Jodeci song that was made while they were still backing up Father MC. And another thing (and I know some people may be tired of me talking about this), who was in charge of the liner notes? In the lyrics, there are all kinds of typos and omitted words and just plain wrong verses. Oh well, this is still a great album. Truthfully, this is the only really good album K-Ci & JoJo made (X came close, though), so if you don't have it, get it now.

This ALBUM IS A CLASSIC. I would recommend this CD to anyone. True R&B and it is very very emotional and gets to your heart easily. These two guys (K-Ci & JoJo) are amazing. Have amazing voices and are just very talented. The beats are great in this album. The rhythm and flow iz just phenominal. "All My Life" of course is the top single in this album. But others like "Still Waiting"(great great song), and "Last Night's Letter", "How Could You", "Now and Forever", and "Just For Your Love" are just awesome. Those of course are my favorites. There are some upbeat songs like "Baby Come Back" and "You Bring Me Up" "How Many Times" and "Love Ballad" are also very worthy to listen to. This CD is a classic and K-Ci & JoJo's best. I'd buy this baby If I was U.
This is one of the best CD,s I have listened to in a while September 17, 1999 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
HBI tells it all for a guy who is really shy can goout and buy this song and give it to someone who is specia to him.Followed by Last nights letter it again gives a guy who is at a lost for words in expressing how he feels about the special woman in his life canrely on this song to tell t all.Baby come back allows him to realize his mistake and try to whoo his woman back and if after a little candlelight wine and this CD Love Always any woman would be willing to give her man a second chance. ThisCd says it all. The selections were cafefully chosen they are all along the same theme and is a must have for any avid R&B fan tohave in there collection. Keep up the good work guys.
"All my life" I have wanted to meet someone like you two. June 18, 1998 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Love Always is a great way to end letters, but it's a great CD too. K-Ci and JoJo are so hot! It's the first song I like that isn't rap. I don't usually listen to any songs except for rap, but I heard the song on 105.7 and I had to have it. Well, I just wish the guys would get over it.
