Next's sophomore album WELCOME II NEXTACY picks up where its debut left off. Combining modern R&B/hip-hop textures and sheen with some major league harmonies, R.L., Tweety and T-Low drop 12 stunning cuts, offering up a mellow soundscape.
The albums starts off with a major hit as producer ALLSTAR laces the guys with a mad hot track called "What U Want," featuring Beanie Sigel. The next song, "Wifey" is the album's first official single, getting major R&B radio airplay. Executive producer KayGee gets behind the board with producer Darren Lighty for numerous tracks including "Cybersex" and "Beauty Queen"; Delite also drops a gem with "When We Kiss." No sophomore slump here; WELCOME II NEXTACY is packed with terrific songwriting and vocal arrangements.
