review by: Liam date: 2008-06-09 rating:
4.5 stars for Mario's best album yet
This album did not sell enough copies for the quality of its work. It is easily Mario's best but most sexually aggressive album to date. The boy is coming of age and for a still young young R&B singer, he has the potential to be Usher's biggest competition or guy to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with.

There are some ballads on this album including "Music for Love" and the cover of Keith Sweat's "Right and a Wrong Way." My favourite track on this album is "Kryptonite," however I do not think that Rich Boy really contributes anything positive to this track and in fact detracts from the theme of the song all together. A primitive, boring few lines to be honest. Another great track is No Definition as produced by Timbaland. This track however is not like Justin Timberlake's Cry Me a River or Omarion's Ice Box. It is less ostentatious but delivers. Turning Point was indication that Mario was starting to mature and that we should take notice. He should be careful with his lyrics as there is a fine line between being sexually aggressive and vulgar which he keeps on the right side of. His voices sounds great, particularly on the Right and a Wrong Way. The lead single How Do I Breathe clearly picks up where Turning Point left off (very you should let me love you) but the album is better than that. This is a genuine baby making album.

Mario brings back real R&B
So, with the albums many pushbacks - the real question is..was it worth the wait?

The answer is yes, yes it was.

This is Mario's third studio album and is basically a make or break deal. He shot to fame with his sophomore album "Turning Point", led by the #1 smash "Let Me Love You" (written by Ne-Yo) - as others have said, this song put Mario on the map. Now on his third LP "Go" Mario needs to prove he isn't just a "One hit wonder" but a major contender in the industry and one to watch out for. After listening to the full album - he couldn't have done a better job. He brought it alright, 110%!

Mario has brought back real R&B at it's finest. For a couple of years now, it seems every new R&B male that appears on the scene has been really lackluster and very generic (excusing Mr Chris Brown from that category of course). But Mario has stepped outside the box and delivered something solid, and almost unique.

In total there are 13 tracks on the record, and I kid you not all 13 are gems! Graunted some are better than others, but by no means are any tracks featured on here poor. Mario has a very unique sound to his voice, so if you hear one of his songs on the radio - you would know it was him instantly. That's a very special quality to have as an artist.

The album's standout tracks are

*Go (a great way to start the album, Mario shows us his more mature side)
*Skippin' (possibly one of the catchiest hooks I've ever heard)
*Kryptionite (Feat. Rich Boy) (great lyrics and hot production)
*How Do I Breathe (an instant classic for fans, a sure fire hit)
*Crying Out For Me (a soft, well produced ballad - second single)
*Do Right (third single from the album, R&B is truly back)
*Lay In My Bed (Mario shows off his strong vocals on this one, fab track)
*Music For Love (very romantic song - great to make-out to)

So, If you're sick of your usual Omarions, Ushers etc... Mario is the right choice for you.

This album has to be one of the best albums of 2007/2008.

Mario has proved, real R&B is still very much alive. Lets hope his other contenders take notes!

WOW!!
I had been waiting for this album for ageeesssss.... and it was worth the wait!

i absolutely love both his released singles, How Do I Breathe" and "Crying Out for Me",they both have such fantastic lyrics and even now after undoubtedly being overplayed on my ipod, i could listen to on repeat for hours. Mario's voice has gotten even stronger than on previous albums, and he has a cool sense of singing (the type of voice that makes women swoon and [should] make men respect him. This album is a must buy because suprisingly unlike most albums nowadays almost every song is fanastic!

please buy it...

Mario at his best
This album has to be one of the best releases this year.

Every tune has it's own unique beat and meaning too.

The track I am feeling is "Kryptonite" for many reasons.

Mario is leading the pack, right behind him is Neyo and the Chris Brown, well that's my opinion.

A definate buy for anyone that is in to their music and appreciates talent.
