But suddenly when boy and girl end up at the same college, poof-a strange and interesting friendship arises. Such is the extremely unique excuse used to fuel the modern day brat packers in another round of self-promoting teeny-exploitation. Hey, and didn't that kid have sex with a pie?!

...about six lumps of sugar. He's more polite than soulful. His album comes to life, though, with a rap cameo by Nas on the last track. Singer Carl Thomas' mostly agreeable album has a bit more "street" to it, perhaps because he's on Sean ("Puffy") Combs' Bad Boy label. His association with serial sampler Combs may also explain why the title track on this CD samples a hefty chunk of Sting's song Shape of My Heart. Like Puffy's best appropriations, it's a guilty pleasure...
