Customer Reviews of Rebirth
Who are you, and what have you done with Keith? It pains me to give a Keith Sweat album such a low review, but I agree with what another reviewer says...that after dropping the LSG album, Still In The Game was a step down and Didn't See Me Coming was another step down. With Rebirth, he just fell down the stairs.
Most of the songs on this album are fast, and they're the problem. And I'm not saying that just because they're fast, but because the production is terrible, the guest rappers are about as dope as Irv Gotti, and the lyrics are cheesy and generic at the same time. Also, when you listen to the singing in these bouncy tracks, it doesn't even SOUND like him. If Keith wanted to go back to fast songs, he should've stuck with flavors like those found in "Just A Touch" and "Twisted" (not "I Want Her"; that style's too dated). Instead, he gives us wack tracks like "The Right Stuff" and "I Want You", and the raunchy and disturbing "Anything Goes". The tired "100% All Man" has the chorus "40% lover/10% player/10% stunna/No % hater/40% hottie/Add it up mami/100% all man", and in "Ladies Night", he says he's looking for a girl so he can "shake his gelatin." Men do NOT say that! Also, I don't know WHAT is going on with those sound effects in "Gots To Have It" because it sounds like someone let elephants into the studio. With all these fast tracks and rappers, you can tell Keith is still trying to get younger fans (or whatever he's trying to do), but it just doesn't work. It's sad when you can't even cross over right.
The slow songs are the only ones that are worth listening to...or so I thought. "Show Me" and "One On One" are good, and "Can It Be" is tolerable. "Wonderful Thang" is decent until he refers to a woman as "You wonderful thang, you" during the chorus. "In And Out" is all right but that background singing is dreary. And it's really annoying that the end of almost every ballad has Keith saying "Turn the lights down" three times.
Keith Sweat calls this album Rebirth, but the rebirth of what, I can't tell. You couldn't pay me to listen to this album again.
Making it last forever
What a great 'comeback' CD for Keith! With Lavert, Luther and many of the other old school balladeers still making CD's, this proves to be literally a 'Rebirth' of a new career for Keith Sweat. For those who loved him in the past with such hits as "Make it last forever" this CD still offers some of his old style of music; PLUS many new tracks that will give artist's like Usher and Brian Mcknight some competition in this genre.
This CD shows great promise for Keith with a CD that has excellent songs and great production. There is not a track on here worth skipping over. Let's hope the radio stations will honor some much-deserved airplay.
Everyone is right - Keith stick to Ballards
Although I like fast tracks such as "ladies night" and "gots ta have it" these tracks do not bring out the best of Keith. The rebirth in my opinion, starts at no.7.
"one on one", "show me" (the best on the album), "in and out", "can it be" are all Hot ballards.
(Ain't got a clue why some people don't like "can it be". One of my favourite tracks on the album.)
Anyway, the album is worth the purchase, but only for the ballards .
