Abit too crass perhaps? Thats how I truly feel about it. Between George Benson's "Give Me the Night" and MJ's "Off The Wall", he laid out himself too thin. And even if he gave them his full attention, I wouldn't think he would bring out the best in them, he's production is a lil' too slick, too calculated, and doesn't leave much room for Chaka's spontaneity.

Plus, he was the connect line between Chaka and crew, they were estranged and the chemistry is virtually off. But the worst thing about the album is how fucked up they mixed Chaka's voice, the engineer(I'm guessing Bruce Sweden) thought it was a great idea to bury Chaka's voice under the production instead of putting it in the foreground.


"What Am I Missing" is the album's saving grace, and I prefer "Camouflage" over this one.
