  1. We’d let the silly lyrics and robotic tempos of Sean Kingston’s sophomore album slide if it were mid-July and we were in the mood for Euro-disco/reggae mash-ups, and straight-up electro-pop. But in autumn we can’t abide clumsily constructed sentiments.
  2. Though he's got plenty of hooks, personality is in much shorter supply.
  3. For the most part--despite Auto-Tuned slow songs--Kingston's mix of young-adult desire and disco heat shows he can cross over in unexpected directions.
  4. No doubt Kingston can write a tune that sticks in the ear like a small insect. But just like having an insect in your ear, once the novelty wears off, it starts to get irritating.

    First-off, can't believe avg. user rating is 1.4 :| .....The album's quite good. Fire Burning, War, My Girlfirend, Why You Wanna First-off, can't believe avg. user rating is 1.4 :| .....The album's quite good. Fire Burning, War, My Girlfirend, Why You Wanna Go, Tomorrow, Magical... are all exceptional songs. His tone and lyrics are kinda dumb but the music is good man, can't take away credit. His album's sales seem to certainly permanently jeopardize his career; 13,000-#37 Billboard 200- this shouldn't have happen. Full Review »
