 Lyfe Jennings - Lyfe Change September 18, 2008
Lyfe Jennings delivers another substantial release with his third album "Lyfe Change" (2008) a fifteen track release which features guest appearances from T.I, Wyclef Jean & Snoop Dogg. Highlight track's for this me include the opening track "Keep On Dreaming", the outstanding single "Never Never Land" & the soulfully sweet "Midnight Train". One thing I enjoy about Lyfe is the unique style he brings with music, that genuine down to earth music, feel he shines on the aforementioned joints. The track's I enjoy make this album worth getting for me, that said I do feel like their are significant missteps for Lyfe, none of his guest appearances benefit the release, and the single "Cops Up" is far to manufactured for my liking - don't like the hook, and while Lyfe flips up his style on track's like "Warriors" and "Hmmm" the end result is not appealing to this reviewer. I would like to see Lyfe return to writing and producing his own albums on solo, "Lyfe 268-192" was an excellent album the type you can listen to from start to finish without hitting skip, feel like the Hip Hop collaborations are not benefiting his work (with exceptions like Nas - Must Be Nice Remix). 3.5.
 LYFE LIKE(Realism) August 25, 2008
Man---, this brother is DEEEEP. Although, I enjoyed the songs on his first release I was bother by all the interludes or scripts. I understood the purpose but it just took something away from the vibe. Eventhough, I mentioned it in the review of the project I didn't let it affect my rating because it was a personal preference for me and the brother had a lot he wanted to get out because of the events in his personal. And besides that after seeing him blow the roof off on Apolo, I could deny him any of his creditenials. This his third project has maybe one but the quality of the material is still consistent. Honestly, for the reviewer who spoke about the hooks, etc., I have to say that when you listen to a Lyfe Jennings project your focus is on the lyrics and what this brother has to say and that is a mouthful. For me unless, it is something just blatantly off kilt then the focus is less on the music and more on the message. This CD is awesome and the accompaning DVD is so inspirational. I just wonder what types of songs he would be singing if he had not spent those 10 years in the penal system. I am sure it would not be the same but I sure hate he had to go through that just to sing what he does. Nevertheless, I am proud that he survived in one piece.
Much love and respect my brother, Lyfe.
 Nice album August 8, 2008
I only got this album because it was Lyfe. I didn't take to it at first, but after the 3rd rotation the songs began to grow on me. My boyfriend is in LUV with this album, he's waiting on the next album already. Lyfe really focuses on important issues that are affecting the world, i.e. the track It's real.
Tracks I love are:
Will I ever
Cops Up
Us
Baby I'm a star (even though there no real song there)
Lyfe, just like Jaheim is one of those unappreciated artist, take a closer listen to the lyrics. These are the true R&B singers of our time.
Good, but the first one was better. July 24, 2008
I loved Lyfe's first CD!!! While this one is not as good to me, I am still a very devoted fan. If you like Lyfe and what he stands for you will enjoy taking this musical journey with him.

I love Mr. Jennning's gritty sound. I also like that he can be sexy with that sound, and that it is unique.
