If you like John Mayer and wish he had a little hip hop flavor to him, then this is your man. This CD is great from beginning to end, you can just listen to this all the way through. I found it to be a good to listen to when you are stuck in traffic and want to sing along to lower the stress level. He has good lyrics and includes them with the CD. He doesn't change the Cyndi Lauper remake of "Time after Time" too much and its cool how its sang buy a guy. All in all it's a great buy and I highly recommend it, especially for ten dollars.

This is a very solid album, and I will not discount the quality of a lot of the songs and the intelligence of some of the lyrics. The title track (and I think, the single) "Coming Home" is the track that sticks out the most to me, though I have difficulty saying that this album has a "hip hop" feel to it, given that that feeling seems to be strictly for the reason that it sounds like the songs have strictly drum machine loops instead of a "real" drummer. There isn't much else that's "hip hop" about it, but that's not what I was looking for in the album, so it wasn't a "dissappointment" for me.

The only dissappointment that I had was because this wasn't as "groundbreaking" as other reviews had lauded it to be and the dissappointment stopped at that. Aside from not being "groundbreaking" this was a solid effort, especially from a first album, and it was well worth the $6 I paid for it to get it used here, so for $6 of your hard earned money, I would have to say RUN OUT AND BUY IT!!! It'll make a nice addition to any collection, and most likely, you'll be the only person on your block to have it, so all your friends can jealously ask "Who is that you are playing in you Stereo?"

This band is sooo so good. I highly reccomend it. This band has so much potential, so incredibly good. Its got a feel good groove going that has a nice rock twist, with meaningful lyrics.

i usually only listen to hip hop but this white boy has it goin on! he's got some mad flava to them beats, yo! i say let this sista roll and i will show ya what it really feels like to get "funkdafied"! no whut i'm sayin?

There is something about a man named Brooke or maybe it's his cool version of that classic song "Time After Time". Whatever it is, it made me fall in love with this CD. He's got some great pop songs. I don't even know what my favorite song on the CD is because it constantly changes. It could be "Camera" today then "Here I Go" the next. I just love em all!

I really liked this cd. The songs are extremely contagious and the lyrics are dead on -- I don't think there was one song to which I could not relate and smile. This cd works at any time, any mood. Great job and I hope this guy gets more exposure.

Brooke's first CD blows most of today's new music out of the water. His cool blend of hip hop, pop and solid rock combined with thoughtful interesting lyrics is enough to satisfy any music lover. This is an artist of many influences and he blends them into a unique sound of his own. Why this CD isn't getting more radio air play is a mystery. All the tunes are fine but I especially like Coming Home and Here I Go. His rendition of Time After Time is fantastic. Do yourself a favor and buy this CD. You won't regret it.

I give total props for someone who can not only write but also sing a really good song about their very own dysfunctional family. I can totally relate to this one since my own family is the most dysfunctional ever! Go Brooke! You are the Man! Love the CD!

Every song is great! Can't wait to hear Brooke's lyrics when he finds his true love!

great songs, great voice, great CD, hot guy... what more can you ask for?
