  1. If there's one thing the R&B phenomenon demonstrates on Grown & Sexy, is that growing up is sexy.
  2. [His] mature eroticism is undone by overwrought production, eventually drowning every track in layers of instrumentation, vocals and other sonic drama. [31 Jul 2005]

    This album is one of his best. It's just a shame that most people are too overwrought with recycled beats and only listen to the crap that MTV tells you to listen to. You want an honest, creative, and love-driven album? Then Grown & Sexy is the album for you. Buy this album, hell...buy it more than once... Expand

    Babyface is the best male R&B songwriter/producer/singer. He is so creative and has the most talent out of anyone in the business. His recent album, Grown and Sexy brings back the R&B that has been missing in this generation. Every song is great, and I never get sick of listening to the album. I could listen to it over and over again. He is a remarkable man and he will continue to succeed with every album he produces. He is irreplaceable and number 1! Expand
