When it comes to contemporary male R&B singers, Keith Sweat is the first and last name for many. He offers the same sexual intensity and hip-hop-inflected production as fellow superstar R. Kelly, for example, but without the overly blatant lyrics and reliance on excessive melisma techniques. Rest assured, Sweat is first and foremost a mack daddy love man, whether he's delivering a straight-ahead, forceful message on the opening track "I Want You" or getting silk-sheets romantic on the luxurious slow jam "One on One." Consistently stirring, danceable beats and sharp, catchy synth riffs are the key elements of REBIRTH's production, but Sweat's strong, expressive voice remains quite rightly the center of attention everythime the R&B sensation opens his mouth.
