This is a great album! And I think if people could let go of the past then they might see that. Firstly, the bonus tracks on the deluxe version are garbage. They are total fillers that shouldn't even made the cut. And the song, Close to You, from the Itunes version is amazing so buy it there! Click Click Click, Put it on my Tab (w/ Akon), Full Service (w/New Edition), Sexify My Love, Stare at You, Dirty Dancing, 2 in the Morning, Single (w/NeYo) are great songs and should be hits if people can minds. I'm not crazy about the contributions of Teddy Riley, PCD, and Timbaland. This is the best album of the New Kids career and it's b/c it is their music and not Maurice Starr's! Give the kids a break. They have finally proven that they deserve their legacy.

The 100 rating by the LA Times guy is legit. He gave it 4/4 stars. That being said, he's definitely a shill or trying to earn ironic cred.

It's not bad.
Heather D. gave it a10:
This album is awesome.
Angela H. gave it a10:
This music suppose to entertain, when Im listening music I dont need to hear about serious issues. I can watch the NEWS for that. It's really good pop danceable music. Awesome for clubs!
Dirk Diggler gave it a0:
I doubt the LA Times writer would agree to the 100 rating that MetaCritic assigned to his review. It was a 70 at best.
Laury gave it an8:
Look, it doesn't matter what critics say. This album is for old fans who missed the guys during all these years and wish to take a trip down memory lane. While it may not be the best pop album of all time, I don't think it's any worse than, say Justin Timberlake. The guys didn't make a comeback to please critics and make new fans, they're doing it for old times sake, they were a big part of my childhood and I'm just happy to be able to relive it.
