I've been down with Avant since Ecstacy. I don't know what it is about him but it's something. I even except the fast songs that I think should not be on his albums..lol..it's like oh well that's just Avant. Mostly I think it's the substance of a lot of ballads that he's done. He makes some of the most amazing beautiful slow jams and mid tempo songs! All I know is I really love his style and his music definitely stands out to me. You know an Avant song when you hear it. I wish him the best with this new album so he can keep on putting out albums. I don't ever want him to stop!!!

I have to say that I'm not an Avant lover. His past CDs had so many stupid songs that I refused to ever listen to him again, until..........

I enjoyed this cd from start to finish. You can hear his maturity and grown.

Avant has often been seen by some, as a poor man's R. Kelly, which I find to be an insult to Avant's talent, especially after hearing Avant sing live for the first time at a recent concert. On his fifth self -titled CD in his eight year career, Avant continues to provide more noteworthy slow jams. Some of the standouts on the CD include the singles When It Hurts & Break Ya Back (In A Good Way) and the baby maker Experiment & the sentimental You. As most R&B CD's go there are a few missteps with the up-tempo tracks, but Avant redeems himself with his soulful rendition of the Christopher Cross classic, Sailing. For his next album I'd love to see what Avant could do with a cover of Glen Jones I've Been Searching (Nobody Like You) or Miles Jaye's I've Been A Fool For You and avoid the up-tempo club tracks since he's a stronger balladeer and not a R&B thug.

Its shame that Avant didn't work with better producers like The-Dream or Stargate to craft better up-tempo material; he also should have reunited with Steve Huff who crafted the masterpiece that was his first CD, however Avant has enough slow jams on this CD to please fan old and new.

I have been a fan of Avant for a while. This album sunulafies the making of a great artist. He has stepped up his game and accomplished a task of becoming one of the premier r & b artists of his time.

I have been an Avant fan since before his 1st CD dropped. I love him and his pure voice. This CD is, yet another, one of his finest work. Worth every penny.

This new artist is growing on me...I loved what he did with "Sailing"...a beautiful re-deux, but still true to the original..

Another sexy album from Avant. I have all his albums and i love them all but this one is to my opinion one of the bests.

I can't get this kind of albums in Spain so that's why i love amazon because i can get them and pre-order them.

This CD never leaves my car! After hearing Avant's remake of the song "Sailing" I purchased this CD right away. His CD is a mixture of fast and slow songs; I absoultely love everyone of them.

GREAT CD OVERALL,, A COUPLE OF THE SONGS HAVE SOME PRETTY EXPLICIT LYRICS BUT IT LIKE IT A LITTLE RAW AND DONT MIND THE SEXUAL COMMENTS THEN YOUR GOOD TO GO WITH THIS ONE...

I love Avant; however, this is the worse CD he ever produced. I would not recommend this CD to anyone.
