Format:Audio CD
I've been listening to this on repeat for about a week (give or take) since it leaked. I liked it so much I went out to buy it today and ended up spending an extra $6 on the double disk. (Which is worth it the 11 tracks on the bonus disk are all very good) I immediately was able to relate really well and loved the socially consciousness of the music. It almost gives you a Marvin Gaye feel. He makes a 70's style of music seem very current today. To me, what makes this album so great is the strong message that's involved with every song.
"Bulletproof" needs no intro, in an industry filled with cheating & heartbreaks, it definitely brings a new flavor and gives you something to think about. It was a very creative song, you can tell Raheem Devaughn really dug deep in order to write a song like that.
"Greatness" is a "great" track, as a big Wale fan, I didn't think he would do well on a song like this but he really showed off. This song could be like an anthem to women everywhere.
"I Don't Care" is a song that really jumped out at me, another song that has a good meaning and great sound. It describes those relationships (I think we've all had on like this) where it seems like theres more people in the relationship than just 2 people because everyone tries to have an opinion or say so in the relationship
"Black & Blue" is probably my favorite song on the album. I know soooo many women that are in this situation but don't remove themselves from their abusive situations because they believe that's how their man shows love, dead wrong. I now have a song to play for them, hopefully Raheem Devaughn can get through to these women.
"Mr. Right" is a great song, very positive, hopefully songs like this one can motivate certain men that refuse to grow or mature. "Fragile" is definitely a "Raheem Devaughn style" song. Its what you would expect from a Raheem Devaughn song. If you got in a friends car and they were playing this song, you would immediately know this was Raheem Devaughn, which is something I can't say for a song like "Bulletproof". That is another thing that makes this CD so great, Raheem shows off his versatility and really brings a diverse sound on just about every song.
"My Wife" is a great song! One of the motto's I've always used is "I'm not looking for a boo, wifey, girlfriend, or any of that...I'm looking for someone with the characteristics of a WIFE" that motto basically describes this song. Moving past all the labels and making it official.
"B.O.B" is such a creative song!!!!!! "Battery Operated Boyfriend", all of us men have heard women rave and talk about them...but Raheem Devaughn puts a nice spin on it...he describes that "BOB" can't run your bathwater, tell you he loves you, kiss you, tell you he misses you, etc. Plus, BOB's batteries run out...EXTREMELY CREATIVE SONG!!!
"Bedroom" adds to the diversity of this album, you have songs that are socially conscious, love songs, a woman's anthem, and this puts a "freaky" twist to everything....a track like this is a must have for every R&B album!
"Microphone" is a subliminal style song, similar to "Customer", make it seem like your talking about one think, when you're actually talking about something else. Raheem Devaughn has said before that he can write songs like this in his sleep. It shows what a creative genius he is because this doesn't seem like an easy song to pencil. "Garden of Love" is has a throwback feel, like i said above, he makes an old school sound, sound very current. He does it very well on this song.
"Nobody Wins in War" is another socially conscious song. Very deep and has a great sound. The moral of the song is "A soldier never wins a war, they only give their life" Its a song that definitely will give you some food for thought.
"Revelations" is a song featuring Damien Marley that is also very conscious. It's recorded over Jay-z's "Can I LIve" instrumental and throughout the song he questions "Can I Live?" just as Jay-z did on his version. Just like Jay-z's version of the song, this is a great song. Damien Marley does very well on this song
Out of every song on this CD there is not ONE song that I skip or don't listen to, its seriously flawless. I've seen it got a 10/10 by a couple of the websites that had reviewed the album and I personally cannot argue with that rating at all. This is a CD I will listen to for 10 years. This will be universally known as a classic album!

Good music. I love the fact that he has made a cd to uplift and spread out the message of love for yourself and others. When it is fashionable to not be comfortable with who you are because mass media is alawys pushing how imperfect you are to have you buy the latest product or service this cd stresses the imporatnce of standing for something called love for yourself as you are. Also Cornel West does a masterful job stressing the importance of getting back to basics and simply loving and having compassion for humanity and to quit being indifferent to other peoples suffering. This cd is long over do and Im more than glad to support it.

'MasterPeace' is a 'Masterpiece'
