Reviews
- Though not exactly for General Patronage because of the seemingly sexual themes in this album, the upbeat, sing-song tracks will simply make you dance. Maybe that's why it earned huge airplay in the radio and music video stations at its time. The songs in this album may be not excellent, but it's definitely worth playing! -Vheliefish 03:51, 30 June 2007 (PDT)
