"When I got this album, I was so excited. I thought I was going to get an up n coming star. Wrong. He got a cool voice and that made me get the album. I thought I was going get some good laid back music. It started out with an annoying intro but that's because most r&b albums do so I excused that. Track 2 So Much to Lose was so so. Then track 3 came on "She's All I Got" and it was the bomb so I got back on the bandwagon. And then Track 4 came on "No More Playing Games" and it was horrible. It had this irritating noise sounding like a toy race car the one that you pull back and let go. This beat minus that noise was already used by Carl Thomas's Cold, Cold World and that song was tight so I couln't stand Jimmy's use of the beat. And then he started to really experiment in a bad way. I can kinda feel his vision of being different but he shoulda kept at it until he got it right. Track 5 irritating with the La da da da da hook. Track 6 was skippable. Track 7 sounds like an irritating Craig David song. Most of the beats sound weak on this album.Tracks 8 through 10 was skippable. Track 11 Mr. Man sounds cool but I already had it on Alecia Keyes album which further disappointed me. I commend him on trying to be different but I think he should be part of a group instead of being solo. Hey, he shoulda been Dru Hill's newest member. That's a betta fit because he is betta at ballads. I wrote this review because I was mad I couldn't get my money back."

Very good in a time of same ole-same ole

"This is a Refreshing CD, In a time of " I heard it all before," Jimmy comes out shining. Not sure if he is from the Islands, but he sounds a bit like it. This CD is worth picking up. Only wish he had a couple more songs."

Cozier is an upcoming star

"well, after purchasing the new jimmy cozier album, i listened to it through a few times, as anyone has to do, to get the true album into my blood...i have found that Cozier soothes me just like the other R&B artists like carl thomas, joe, donnel jones, and others...he actually uses a background music from carl thomas' cold cold world on track 4 i think on the cozier album...look for this kid to be making many more successful albums"
