have any of you heard the first single "Sorry For The Stupid Things"? I haven't heard it yet because I don't really listen to the radio anymore.


it's a decent song..not his best, not his worst either. i thought it was him..goes something like "sometime's a man, is gonna be a man" blah blah blah...they play it on whur 96.3 in dc


Face performed the track on Leno last week.He's pretty good on the guitar now.Nice song.It's not for everybody,just the grown and sexy people!

I remember Mayte was in one of his videos a couple of years ago. As I'm typing I can't remember the song (it will come to me when I'm on the freeway, no doubt), but it was one of his few recent songs I actually liked.
Babyface is one of those artists whose music I'm not really into, but I just like the guy.



Mayte appeared in his video "The Loneliness" last year.That song appears on the new album.

That's an entirely different album.It was titled 'Love Story' and was supposed to be released early last year.A single and video "The Loneliness" was released,but the album was apparently cancelled.Babyface went back into the studio,recorded some new tracks,kept a few of the 'Love Story' songs,and he is now getting ready to release a revised version of the album,which is now titled 'Grown and Sexy'.Here's the original 'Love Story' album cover and tracklist

God Must Love You
Red Dress
Getting To Know U
Makin Love
Love Song
Sentimental Reasons
The Loneliness
Wish That I Could Tell You
Together Forever
Still My Boo
I Promise



Although it was never officially released,the 'Love Story' album leaked a long time ago.


Yeah I got the Love Story album off the net. He made a good decision not to put it out cause it was pretty weak - it wouldve been a major disgrace to his discography and catalog. I still got the album for a collector's item though. Good lookin out on the cover - Ima blow it up and print it out. wink


now that i look at this.it reminds me of either some ad for men's cologne or the men's relaxer kits.

"Grown And Sexy"...The New Cologne By Babyface.

Fashion Fair Has just launched a new line of men's cologne that will be backed up by some of the most sexiest men in R&B..The fashion Fair team has also contacted Eric Benet and Maxwell To expand their line in the hopes of attracting more customers..so far on the roster are Brian McKnight,Van Hunt,Joe, and Dave Hollister.The New Line Should Be out in stores by 2007.

and if you've read this far.....

YOU BEEN PUNK'D! evillol

It woud be nice if Fashion Fair did do that but then they'd have all of their magazines flooded with the ads as a form of self promotion

One of his best. Remember the stevie duet "how come, how long". I love that song. Stevie sang the fuck outta those lines.

Babyface's solo or post la reid stuff is so samey. I can only take it in small doses.

WHAT CD WERE YOU LISTENING TOO? That CD was not weak. You might wanna go back and listen to it. Entirely different approach that would have worked with a more mature audience.

I did and it has some pretty good jams in it. Mad, Sexy, Cool, Can't Stop Now, Sorry for the Stupid Things, Gettin to Know U, and Goin' Outta Business are my faves on here. I like his 2001 album, Face2Face better because of the nu-soul flavor he put in it and with that album it seemed he was going to another direction. But it seems on this album, he has returned to the balladeer he used to be. There are some duds and greats, but I would just recommend u just ripping into ur R&B collection and just look for his oldies like Tender Love and The Day, and even giving the Face2Face album a listen or two.

In my eyes, the Love Story was a great concept album that talked about a relationship. I thought it would've been something different for Babyface as well.
