What The Critics Say

A decent late-'80s album from the trio The Jamaica Boys, whose music combined funk, R&B, and fusion. Marcus Miller is a talented producer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist, while Lenny White has played drums on many seminal sessions and with some excellent groups. Vocalist Mark Stevens had some skills as well, but for some reason the trio didn't click consistently enough to make this album anything beyond competent urban contemporary and instrumental pop. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide

What The Critics Say

Although marketed in rap circles, The Jamaica Boys were really more of a fusion trio with composer/multi-instrumentalist Marcus Miller, drummer Lenny White, and singer Mark Stevens combining forces. They made pleasant music, and occasionally Miller would come up with an inspired riff. But the most distinctive thing about this album in retrospect was the fact that Stevens was Chaka Khan's brother. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
