Mostly urban, urban smooth, and quiet storm joints from artists spanning from
Mary J. Blige to
Average White Band. The only real dis-joint (misplaced tune) is
the Ohio Players' "Fire," which doesn't fit well with the 15 other songs. It's the last track, and that's its saving grace; the song is the bomb but deserves a funkier surrounding. Melt like butter to
Alicia Keys' "Fallin',"
the Isley Brothers' "For the Love of You,"
Brian McKnight's "Anytime," and others via
Essence of Soul 2002's romanticism.
