Detroit-based LJ once made a name for himself in mainstream R&B with his group Chocolate Syrup. Now he's moved into gospel. The messages presented are never cryptic in any means but are plain, clear and give an insight to the testimony and committed heart of this family man. Pastor Don Wiggins verbally enforces the word during the track "A Spoken Word". Admittedly the periodic voiceovers may not meet universal taste but opinions will be split even more so on the inclusion of rapping during the funky "Shout" but if nothing else displays the willingness to diversify. Also, with the inclusion of his family plus many talented and various performers throughout, LJ Reynolds will put a smile on any face. The message is here, the message is clear and LJ wants the world to know.
