Done with his own son Lemicah, the track reflects the idea that, no matter how bad things are, there's always that light in your life. You tell em Gerald.Ĭlosing the album, Gerald recognizes the somber mood and lightens it in a brilliant manner. Guys need to be there for their women and understand their needs. The song is fun as Gerald tells a girl that he'd treat her better than other guys and defines what a real man is like. ![]() The song's slow and rich with feeling.Ī track that strikes me in a similar mood as "Men Like Us," "Definition of a Man" is a great track about what real men are like. Gerald just lays it out there as his girl walks away from him and asks her what happened to all their plans together. Nearing the end, "What About Me" is a laid back track. The lyrics are nice and the chorus is tight. Attacking the fact that she took everything, he really lets out his sadness. A solid effort.Īt number 10, "Taking Everything" has Gerald delivering fire as he sings about his baby leaving him. The chorus is great and the song is catchy. Gerald tells a woman that she needs to have a better man in her life, a man like us. "Men Like Us" is another solid track and one of my personal favorites. The message on the track is strong and what sounds like Wyclef Jean adds additional flavor to the track. Dealing with divorce, it really highlights the tough times Gerald was going through when working on this album. "No Man's Land" is a dark song that features a different side of Gerald. Overall, it's a solid song and a sign of things to come. The chorus is catchy, and the song's lyrics are on point. He tells his girl that her flippant ways were causing their problems. Starting with the eight track of the album, "No I'm Not to Blame," Gerald sets it out strong. However, from here on out, he really brings the A game. Up until this point, I'd suggest visitors to just skip over Gerald's third effort. Still, the song just lacks that extra something that could have made it a great track.Īt the midway point, the album seems to kickstart. The chorus is nice and the lyrics are pretty good throughout.

The sixth track on the album, "That's The Way I Feel About You" is a duet with Mary J Blige (see what I mean about all the collaborations?). The rap at the end is alright though it doesn't really improve the song. It's nice to hear the contrast in the brothers voices though.Īnother guest rapper joins the albums ranks with "Breakin My Heart." The track is pretty good with a catchy chorus. Unfortunately, the track ultimately lets you down by failing to capitalize on the dark tone by fleshing out the theme more. The track deals with blaming other people for problems and while it doesn't have much meat, the chorus is pretty tight. The only flaw in the track is the fact that the chorus runs on way too long in the heart of the track.īringing on Sean LeVert, the third track "Point the Finger" is a dark track about accusations. About being betrayed by your woman, the song is pretty fierce. Gerald really blasts the girl in the final verse and really lets out his feelings. The lyrics are good and the vocals are dark. ![]() "Thinkin Bout It" follows and is the highlight of the first half of the album. Overall, the track is okay but the bland chorus brings it down a few notches. The track shows a theme of the album as Gerald LeVert seemed to a lot more work with other artists on this album. The album starts with a skippable track, "No Sense," that features collaboration with Lazy Bone and Ken Dawg. It's clear that Gerald was having some tough times in his life. No where is this more evident than on Love and Consequences which has a decidedly darker feel to it. Gerald LeVert lets his emotions out in his music.
