5.0 out of 5 stars A near-flawless R&B album, July 30, 2001

This review is from: After 7 (Audio CD)

After 7's debut is an almost-perfect r&B record. This takes me back to a time when R&B had its innocence, when people sang about LOVE and ROMANCE and wanting to treat you right. There were no lyrics about "freak" this or "thong" that. This record shows Babyface at one of his peaks as a producer, as he is involved in virtually every track on this CD. It's difficult for me to point out a standout track since you can play this CD from start to finish without hitting the "next" buttom. Highly recommended. After you hear this record, you'll never want to listen to anything that's been released in the last 18 months.

i really enjoyed this disc when it first came out.despite the family connection with La&Babyface it never overides the talents of After 7.i always felt they were underrated.Can't Stop was a jam ready or not and one night were also good songs.these Brothers can sing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Man this takes me back, January 10, 2007

This review is from: After 7 (Audio CD)

After 7's debut disc was released at time when almost every R&B record released was A-1.Two-thirds of the trio are the brothers of producer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, and the other third is the cousin of Antonio "L.A." Reid; the two produced the majority of the album, which features three smash hits and a host of other likable tracks. The singles released were Heat Of The Moment, Can't Stop and Ready Or Not. Can't Stop & Heat Of The Moment were both up-tempo dance numbers while Ready Or Not is one of the best slow jams released in 1989. However the one song to me that makes the CD a classic is "One Night," an urban adult contemporary composition that was never released; it showcases Melvin and Kevon in an impressive vocal exchange over a mid-tempo rhythm.
