Check out the review

Chocolate City’s crooning falsetto J. Holiday is back in the mix and offering up his latest sexual seductions. After enticing women with his 2007 debut Back Of My Lac,’ the D.C. balladeer makes a triumphant return, proving that he’s a legitimate contender in the R&B arena with Round 2 and has the potential to one day be champion.

On the Jasper & Reese-produced “It’s Yours,” J. Holiday gives his heart and goes deeper with commitment and showing his initial hit single “Bed” was no fluke. Pleading his soul out with the knee dropping chorus, “Hold my heart, don’t break it…,” Holiday is ready to overdose on his new love addiction.

The mid-tempo “Fall” will find you two-stepping with that summer time fling who swept in and stole your swagger. Bringing romance back into R&B, J covers the art of seduction quite well with “Forever Ain’t Enough,” which is sure to be the backdrop for future weddings. The climatic “Make That Sound” will find its way into your iPod slow jams rotation as well.
