  1. The problem is that 'Level II' is a pretty fabulous album caught in the wrong time.
  2. 70
    Is so patently wrong in so many ways that it exhibits a peculiar strain of genius. [Jun 2003, p.92]
  3. A fine album, offering quality tunes, if not clever punches. [May 2003, p.100]
  4. Like most of Riley's music, it's full of gorgeous air, exposed emotions and rhythms that have a mathematical integrity.
  5. The older, wiser BLACKstreet rides a sweet suite of slow jams to a level no teen quartet has seen yet.
  6. A little humdrum. [4 Apr 2003, p.100]
  7. 50
    There are plenty of dull moments on Level II, but the memorable ones keep the proceedings interesting. [Apr 2003, p.177]
  8. 40
    The production sparkles.... But the songs are dull. [#14, p.131]
  9. 20
    Sadly, the results are soul-less. [Apr 2003, p.99]
