Pen's second album is aggressive, tuneful, and fluid. Unfortunately, you have to sift through several tracks to get all this (not one song features all these estimable qualities).
Teddy Riley jacks up the album's best cut, "I Got Cha," while the see-sawing "Baby Daddy" is more representative of Conversations' tone and style. A solid, if unremarkable, sophomore showing. ~ Michael Gallucci
