Review - :
Six years after the first collaborative release, {$Gerald LeVert}, {$Keith Sweat}, and the otherwise MIA {$Johnny Gill} reunited to present a more driven and carnal {$LSG}. The {$Whodini} quoting opener, {&"Just Friends,"} makes for a decent lead single with its sure beat and {$Loon}'s languid {\rap}, but in the context of the rest of the album, its ode to platonic love seems downright deceiving and sneaky. The sexier than expected {^LSG2} presents the singers as swashbuckling lords of the bedroom and shows little interest in crossing over to the {\pop} world's more chaste framework. It's a good thing they allow themselves the freedom, since the album's highlights are the more racy numbers. {&"Wide Open"} combines {$LSG}'s bedroom promise to perform to satisfaction with an inspired choppy beat, while {&"Fa-Free"}'s smirking and spicy lyrics are hard to resist and a great showcase for {$Sweat}. {&"Shake Down"} may hang on to its arrest and cavity search metaphor too long, but few could deliver lyrics like "Come and get your punishment/This is a shakedown all over your body" without sounding farcical. Well-written and well-produced, {&"Yesterday"}'s over the top emotion and meandering way bring reminders of {$Prince} at his most lonely and lustful and give the album some needed substance. Elsewhere the songwriting lags, but the slick production and {$LSG}'s passionate vocals make this seduction hard to resist. [A Japanese version added a bonus track.] ~ David Jeffries, All Music Guide
