This was not the album I would have liked from Charlie, but as expected he literally produces With the melancholic “Thru It All” which (I think!) is co-penned by a certain Eric Roberson. “What If I’m The One” but does not reach the parts that “Magic” reaches! More quality resides The Underdogs (no, I don’t know either) produce a nice ballad
Well done, that man!Īnother very nice effort is the slick, smooth “Asking Questions” which will definitely appeal us R Kelly is responsible for this clever, quality ballad. “No Words” owes a lot to 70s Stevie Wonder without it being a complete and utter apeing.
