Its good. Its produced by la reid and babyface, so its classic newjack pop from 1992. The boomerang soundtrack still holds strong today.

He could do no wrong that year (1992), with another bad creation and tlc, plus his own highland place mobsters i think came out this year. Even that "white men cant jump" track with riff was dope..

"Pull Up To The Bumper" and "Nice Jamaican Guys (Ohhh!!) are my favorite songs by her. Is she still married to the dude who played Drago in Rocky 4?
