 19 out of 39 found this review helpful

B2K IS AN EXCELLENT GROUP. THEY HAVE GREAT VOICES AND ARE WELL DRESSED IN THEIR VIDEOS. BUT ARE THE CONCIEDED OR ARE THEY ALL FOR THE AUDIENCE. OMARION IS A GREAT LEAD SINGER. HE'S CUTE ALSO. J-BOOG IS CUTE TOO. HE HAS A BEUTIFUL VOICE. THE CURLES IN HIS HAIR LETS YOU SEE MORE OF HIS EYES. THEY ARE BEUTIFUL BROWN EYES. ALL THE GIRLS I HAVE TALKED TO ABOUT YOU ADORE YOU PERFUSELY. I LIKE YOU GUYS AND YOUR SONGS BUT IF I WENT SOMEWHERE AND SAW YOU I WOULD JUST WALK PASS AND SAY HI OR WHAZ UP. I WOULD NOT TRY TO HUGG YOU OR SCREAM B2K I LOVE YOU OUT BECAUSE I DONT LOVE YOU , I BEARLY EVEN KNOW YOU. SCRACH THAT I DONT KNOW YOU. TO ME YOU GUYS ARE JUST REGULAR PEOPLE. YOU ARE JUST BOYS WHO CAN SING BEAUTIFULLY. LIL FIZZ IS THE MOST ADORABLE ONE IN THE GROUP. RAZ-B HAS THE MOST LUSHIS LIPS I HAVE EVER SEEN. TO ME YOU ARE NO MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY OF THE BOYS ON MY FOOTBALL TEAM. THATS RIGHT I PLAY FOOTBALL. YOU GUYS ARE JUST ORDINARY BOYS JUST LIKE ANYBODY ELSE, YOU JUST HAVE SCREAMING GIRLS AFTER YOU. IF I WAS A FAMOUS RAPPER I'D HAVE SCREAMING BOYS AFTER ME TOO. I LIKE YOUR SONGS ALOT BUT WHEN I HAER GIRLS TALKING ABOUT "OH, I'M GOING TO MRRY J-BOOG" OR "LIL FIZZ IS MY MAN" THAT JUST MAKES ME THINK, "HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MARRY SOMEONE YOU DONT EVEN KNOW" OR "HOW IS A GUY GOING TO BE YOUR MAN IF HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW YOU. YOU GUYS MIGHT BE TRUE STARS BUT HOW DO I KNOW THAT AND I DONT EVEN KNOW YOU.


A well done debut   August 9, 2003

We've heard from them all, Boyz II Men, Jagged Edge and many others. Now we have newcomers in the game who go under the name of Boys of the New Millenium, better known as B2K. They have already stunned the world with their hit "Uh Huh" which hit number one spots on radio stations in late 2001 and early 2002. Then they went on to release this debut. Wow! What a debut this one is. Filled with alot of R&B, Soul and Hip-Hop musically, Girls, Party and Relationships lyrically. The album features excellent vocals, vocal ranges and excellent raps from Lil' Fizz. It singles "Gots Ta Be" and "Why I Love You" have both been a sucess and their videos, well, the girls must decide on that! Party people would enjoy tracks like "Uh Huh" and "B2K is Hot" while slow jammers may enjoy tracks like "Gots Ta Be" and "Baby Girl" Medtempo heads will enjoy something like "Fantasy" or "Why I Love You" All I can say is, this fella's are here to take over the world of R&B.


Girls Under The Age Of 18 Might Want To Skip This Review   April 3, 2002

When I first saw the video for "Uh Huh", I thought, Here's an urban teen R&B group. All the middle school and high school girls will love them. And, according to the charts, I was right. The video constantly reaching the top spot on MTV and BET, not to mention the album debuting at #2 on the Billboard 200, proved that girls just couldn't get enough of Omarion, Lil' Fizz, Raz-B and J-Boog. And when their followup "Gots Ta Be" came out, even guys were saying that maybe they should get the album.

I have to admit that I was surprised that "Gots Ta Be" is so good, because a lot of times when new male teen groups release fast songs, they mess things up with slow songs. But after listening to the album, I discovered that they're actually BETTER at making slow songs. In addition to "Gots Ta Be", there's the I-know-I-messed-up ballad "I'm Not Finished", and the album's best track, "Baby Girl". The only slow song that could use a little improvement is "Feel This Way", because it sounds like they were half asleep when they recorded it.

This album does run into corners, however. "Hey Little Lady" and "B2K Is Hot" don't go anywhere, and "Come On" annoys the listener by saying the word DANCE a little too much. But the weirdest song on the album has to be "Your Girl Chose Me", which has the boys bragging about other guys' girls choosing to be with them, and then having the nerve to ask the guys why they're so mad ("N stop acting like this."). Don't they know they could get beaten up for saying stuff like that? In addition, we really don't need to hear Raz-B announcing the members' names in just about every song.

Groups like B2K always have the same formula for the members: one guy is the lead singer, one guy is the rapper, and the rest is/are eye candy. Lil' Fizz is the rapper...I guess. With the aforementioned problems, I still believe Omarion has talent and potential, but at this point I just can't see it in Lil' Fizz. He has a very ghetto-sounding voice, and if he writes his own lyrics, he better get someone else to write them quick. (He hits rock bottom in "Hey Little Lady".) And since he's only fifteen, he shouldn't be talking about things like how sexy girls look with their G-strings on. I know teenage boys do talk about that stuff, but we shouldn't be PROMOTING it.

This album isn't GARBAGE, but it does need improvement. I hope they do better the second time around.


One that defintely deserves a listen...   March 17, 2002

I'm flipping the channels when suddenly I see a new music video playing on [tv]. The song had a pretty good beat and it really got my attenion. But to my surprise i find out the group's name is B2K. I merely laughed at the name of the group, as well as the name of their single, uh huh. It made me turn away from my interest in the group. But, the more i heard the song and the more i saw the video, the more i enjoyed it. I decided to pick up the CD, hoping that it wasn't one big joke. And to my surprise it was a pretty good CD. I think it was worth the money.
Here's the run down of the CD and what i thought of the songs:
(*= favorites)
*1) Gots ta be- This is a pretty good ballad. It's one of my favorites and it's probably going to be their next single. About a guy saying that he wants to be this girl's everything, and even the one to make her happy, as well as the one to make her cry.

*2)Understanding- this song is actually my favorite, i think because it's different and the lyrics are really cute. In the beginning they call this their anthem. It's basically what they need in a girl, and one trait being they need them to be understanding.

*3)Why I Love You- A really sweet song that every time i hear it, i think of Stevie Wonder. It's really cute because it's all about the reason's he loves the girl he does.

*4)Uh Huh- Their first single. One of the better songs on the album that you could dance to.

*6)B2K is Hot- lol, i laughed when i saw the name of this song, but it's got a really good dance beat to it, and besides the narcissistic name of the song, it's a pretty good song.

7)Fantasy- This is a pretty good song. It's about this girl that they always see, and have always wanted to be with. I think during the song i hear them sing,'...she's my childhood fantasy.'

*8)I'm not finished- another really cute ballad that i really liked. About a guy saying that he really misses the girl he loves and how he can't spend another day without her and how he's not finished loving the girl he loves, yet. Everyone together now...AAAWWWWW.....:)

9)Come on- this song has a pretty good beat to it, but i don't particularly like this one.

11)Hey little lady- Basically about a guy that sees some girl at a club and he wants to get her number, and get to know her. Overall, its got a pretty good beat. So its a pretty good song.

12)Baby Girl- A ballad about a girl...obviously. :) It's very soothing and sweet. A nice song.

*13)Your girl chose me- by the name of the song, you probably know what it's about. A pretty good song with an up-beat tempo. One of my favorites.

14)Shorty- all i need to say...they really over use the word shorty. lol. But other than that, it's a good song with a really good beat. About a girl that they're...eyeing? lol, I don't know. It's about a guy, liking a girl!...

15)Feel this way- the lyrics to this song are pretty good, but the chorus is just really annoying. They sound like their off tune for some reason. I think this is the worst song on the album

16)Last boyfriend- the chorus of the song is a little weird, and so is the beat. Keep listening to it, and you'll get used to it. It kind of grows on you. It's an ok song. About a guy telling his girl that he's not the same kind of guy as her ex. And that he wouldn't do anything like the stuff he did, and to stop treating him like he would.

16)Here we again- An up-tempo song with a pretty good song, but i don't particularly favor this one.

Overall, i'd say it's a pretty good album. GO GET IT!!!
