3.0 out of 5 stars Fine singer. Incredibly uninspired material., January 18, 2007

Though no heir to the legendary R&B singers of yesterday, Marc Nelson is a competent artist in his own right. Sadly, with the sole exception of "Summer Love" all of the songs on this CD are lacklustre and uninspired. To make matters worse, Capitol Records' executives failed to properly promote him. What a tragedy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Marc's take on the New Jack Swing movement ???, April 29, 2004

Warning This disc is for a fan only. If you like Marc Nelsons voice and singing ability you should get this. Myself being a fan of the man I enjoyed it all right but this Cd came out sounding like a poorly excecuted rip off of BBD by a fake Teddy Riley imitator on production at a time when that sound was being ran into the ground. Poor Marc was probaly at the mercy of unhip white music execs at Capitol Records trying to use a proven sound instead of letting my boy come into his own as an artist. Marc sould have stayed with Boyz II Men where he would have easily been the break out star of the group and parlayed the recognition into a successful solo career. The only songs on this CD that are remotely original are
"I Want You" , "Cross My Heart" and "Summer Love". If you want to here a solid effort from Marc Nelson I'll suggest his 1999 disc "Chocolate Mood". "CM" is more of Marc as an artist an less on the current trends.

While Marc's debut solo album was both underpromoted and did not become a platinum seller, Marc's vocals are thrilling, sexy, and emotive! He has a way mixing sophistication and a streetwise engery that works to his advantage. I am partial to the album because I enjoy Marc's voice and New Jack Swing. Every song on this album still higher quality than the so called "R&B" that has flooded the mainstream during the past several years. While the songs and production on this album are not groundbreaking, they are far from being lackluster!
