    At times the reliance on heavy-breathing, laid-back grooves is a little annoying--Aaliyah doesn't quite have the pipes to carry off melodramatic fare like "Never No More," and a few more club bangers on the order of the springy, sassy "U Got Nerve" certainly wouldn't have hurt.

    A fair bit of filler... [Sep 2001, p.106]

    Esse álbum, assim como todos os outros da Aaliyah são uma obra prima R&B, consigo sentir a música.

    An album of dull, vocal virtuoso ballads." I agree. This album is mediocre.
