Like Joe's previous album, 'Bridges', there is a different vibe here than the contemporary R&B sound from most of his career. I don't think this is as strong from start to finish, but there are still some great moments. It takes a while to warm up with 'So I Can Have You Back' at track four being the first one to get excited about. The final track is a cover of Adele's hit, 'Hello', that Joe kills, and 'So I Can Have You Back' sounds a little like it as well. The other standouts are 'Tough Guy', and the country 'Hollow', proving that Joe sounds good over anything, with 'No Chance' and 'Hurricane' bubbling under. The one track with a rap feature, 'Happy Hour' with Gucci Mane, is one of the weaker on offer but adds to the variety of sounds on the album. As I write this in 2023, this is Joe's last album, as he said it would most likely be at the time of release.
