Philadelphia's Boyz II Men are a vocal quartet steeped in a number of R&B and soul traditions. Not only do they have the sizable legacy of soul singers from the City of Brotherly Love to draw on for inspiration, they've also surpassed mentors Bell Biv Devoe as the premier Pop/R&B act in the land, filling the shoes of such dapper hit-makers as New Edition and The Jacksons.
For II, their long-awaited sophomore effort, Boyz II Men (Shawn Stockman, Michael McCary, Nathan and Wanya Morris) rightfully abstained from fiddling with their distinctive vocal sound. Consequently, their harmonic interplay has never seemed more polished. Not only do they kindle soulful flames under pure romantic ballads like "I'll Make Love To You," but they are able to stake a claim to the Beatles' "Yesterday" by placing their own distinct vocal stamp on it.
They can also just as easily kick their harmonies onto the dance floor. The Jimmy Jam/Terry Lewis produced "All Around The World," with its funky French intro and Daddy-O samples, is a testament to that. The track also serves as further proof that in today's world of pop craftsmanship, Boyz II Men have all the bases covered.

Editorial Reviews
...No matter how noble the lyrics, the lush vocal and string arrangements suggest a deep-seated sensuality...the Boyz maintain their understated charm... - Rating: A
Entertainment Weekly (09/09/1994)

4 Stars - Excellent - ...Aspirations to stretch beyond sweetness are implicit in the hardline approach and ensemble passion...

    I LOVE it or else I wouldnt have bought it. I like most of the songs that are on the CD and I am curently trying to update to all CD's. So I am slowly buying CD's that I already have tapes of and that i really enjoy listening to and Boys II Men is one of the many groups that I really enjoy listening to.

    If you have to look up a reveiw on this album then you need help. This R&B album is in the top 50 all time greatest albums. This is Boyz II Men's second album and they came out hard hitting right off the bat. With platinum singles like On Bended Knee, I'll Make Love To You, and Water Runs Dry you will understand what I mean. This is one of the few albums you can play from start to finish. 10 of 10 A+

    I bought this item because I had one in casette when I was young! I love it because it brings me back so many memories when I was dating my husband, It has many romantic songs. And the only thing I didn't like was that I didn't find it sooner.

    Boyz II Men is my favorite band and my old cd broke so I needed to buy a new one. I like all the tracks on this CD, especially since there is a mix of fast and slow songs; as opposed to the other Boyz II Men CD's where the majority of the songs are slow. Boyz II Men's music appeals to people of all ages. I would strongly recommend this CD to anyone.
