When I was in my early teens and really started getting into music more seriously, R. Kelly is one of the guys who got me into the R&B scene. And having heard all of his other albums since, I'd say this is the R. Kelly album which differs the most from the others as this album features few sexually inspired lyrics than his others. It's also two discs, one with gospel-inspired lyrics and music, and the other disc, 'Happy People', featuring laid back dancey R&B about love, dancing and having a good time. A lot of the 'Happy People' disc gives off the same sort of vibe that 'Step in the Name of Love' gave us from 'Chocolate Factory', so if you liked that track you should enjoy at least half of this album. Although some tracks particular on the 'U Saved Me' disc can be said to sound quite similar, I really enjoy the gospel/spiritual lyrics, and I think it's a great double-disc LP and up there with '12 Play' for his best and most consistent record. Best Tracks: Happy People Disc: Love Street, If, The Greatest Show on Earth, Steppin' Into Heaven, Happy People U Saved Me Disc: U Saved Me, Prayer Changes, How Did You Manage, I Surrender, The Diary of Me, Leap of Faith
