That's what Aaron would have us believe. It really is a shame if this really is Aarons final album, because as this album reiterates, Aaron Hall is the godfather of hip-hop soul(with GUY partners Teddy Riley and Damion Hall). Anyways, as far as the album, I probably would have given this album 3 or 3.5 stars, but Aaron's voice lifted the album to a 4. The man is an incredible singer, but like most R&B singers of his calibar ( Johnny Gill, Wayna Morris, Mark Middleton), the material doesn't match the quality of the voice. The production isn't bad, but most of the songs just come off as you average, run-of-the-mill cliched R&B.

A couple of tracks lift this album of the ground, foremost among them, is Aaron's remake of Eric Clapton's "Tears from Heaven". It probably wont' top the original (I've never heard it before), but Aaron and guest star K-Ci from Jodeci sang the mess out of that song. Talk about soulful! Another good joint is the bonus track, "Betta Watch your Girl" which has a great beat and could easily be a club hit. Other noteable songs are "Sorry", "Hands On Me", "Still Here", "All I Think About is you", and strangely enough "Bout That" which is a reggae styled song. It sounds weird at first, but eventually it grows on you.

Overall, great effort by Aaron. Even though that material is bland, and cliched, the man is still one of the greatest singers of his generation. Here's hoping for another Guy reunion so we can hear Mr. Hall do his thing one more time.

The nasty man is at his best with adults only.The cd has it all from start to finish.I would rate this cd 10 stars.I hope Mr. Hall gets the credit he deserves for this is a masterpiece.

I was reading the first review and i had to comment. First off let us get one thing straight. AH is the creator of this Nastyman style SO many others{even R KELLY} have copied their styles from. I ain't mad at others for copying but this album shows off AH's incredible vocal SKILLS and blows any of the other vocalists away. Songs like sorry, still here, all i think about and video show off AH's nastyman style as well as his vocal power. Uptempos are catchy and very different from stale everyday radio nonsense. And the real GEM on this album is the SEXY love making classic "OH". This song should get AIRPLAY and AH would get respect he deserves!AH might not get as much airplay as the other R&B artist, but this album shows that he still has the pipes and deserves the respect as the creator of this sexy style of music others are seeing rewards from.

Aaron Hall is clearly one of the most underrated vocalists of the nineties. I remeber the first time I heard Aaron blow on the classic slow jams Let's Chill, Yearning For Your Love, Piece Of My Love and of course I Miss You. Aaron still has a very strong and capable voice but unfourtanely subpar production hurt this album. I can't think of any standout tracks on the album and one of the worst is the cover of Tears In Heaven. Here's hoping his next album will boast better production and he can become the singer he was destined to be.

Quality as always, Aaron Hall sets the trend. Every artist who evolved from the "New Jack:" or "Swingbeat" era has proved to be innovative and staying loyal to tradition as being the key to success. Aaron Hall; with his unique voice still is one of the founders of this very futuristic era and deserves the respect given. The best way to understand the album is to comprehend the title: Adults Only. While you listen to the tracks keep this in mind and try to imagine the artist's and listener's growth over the years. A truly unique voice and a powerfull show of vocal force & blessings ! Absolutely extraordinary ! a must have BUY THIS CD !

This album is the 3rd solo By Aaron "The nasty man" Hall. The new style He is going with is surprisingly good. This album reminds me of his first solo album. He has a song in this album were he sings with k-ci(from Jodeci) it is truly amazing. As a long time fan(since his days with Guy) I am happy to see Aaron Has returned. In my opinion Aaron hall has one of the best voices in music today. I only wish that he keeps coming out with more albums. Pick this one up today!!!

This album is off the chain. Aaron please do one more. This is a true fan. This is your Harmon Cove Tower Fan

I've been listening to this cd ever since I bought it a few weeks ago. All I can say is that AH still has the pipes to bring the slow jam home. I always hit repeat on songs like "Your", the melodic "Still Here" is outstanding, also "Oh" is just as good as any slow jam on the radio today! AH could still use better production on the uptempo tracks, I believe that's what's holding his album back. Since "The Truth" AH hasn't really had a decent uptempo track to mold with. But his voice is still strong enough to make is plausible for listening. AH still can't spark the glory days of Guy since so many singers have bitten his style (incl R.Kelly) it's hard to keep reinventing yourself when people are waiting to rip your style. But the Nastyman doesn't disappoint on this cd at all, it's definitely worth the purchase if you're a true AH fan!!

Aaron Hall's third cd is great. His voice is fantastic and the music is funky and catchy. He's smooth and his songs are well written. You won't be disappointed in this cd. He's one of the best RnB singers out.

Damn Nasty Man is smokin on all these tracks. Glad to see Aaron Hall come back into the game and bring the real RnB voice out and not like all those fake ass singers tryna be singers u get me. Aaron Hall has got ONE of the best voices I've heard so far in RnB and I don't think anyone can match his style and uniqueness. PICK THIS UP 2DAY!
