I used to have the album. The album cuts were strong, and one of them with an accapella was played at my middle school graduation

Good album but I hated that damn Don't Leave Me. The fucking DeBarge sample
was overkill at that point. I think Pac and Biggie had already run it in the ground. I liked Never Let You Go much better. That and Fix were among the favorites for me.
Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

One of the first CD's my older sister ever had. I used to love listening to that album when I was younger.

As a sidenote, thank you Jabar for starting this thread. Because it's just reminded me that this album exists so off I go to Amazon to buy it. lol

A solid album. I like “The Lord Is Real”, which is a remake of DeBarge’s “Time Will Reveal” with gospel lyrics and vibe.

This year also marks the 30th anniversary when BLACKstreet was formed. Teddy met Chauncey while working on Bobby Brown's 3rd album

I had this CD but mostly because the single for "No Diggity" was all weird mixes. They had the nerve to reissue that single recently for Record Store Day too.

Solid album- I remember liking it but it wasn't as strong or consistent as the 1st album. Loved the Fix remix.
