Released ten years after his solo debut,
Grown Folks Gospel finds
J Moss going for crossover appeal, but as the title states, it's adult-oriented crossover appeal since the genres blended in are grown folks' R&B and smooth jazz. Songwriting is top-notch, from the uplifting lead single "You Make Me Feel" with
Faith Evans to the late album highlight "Everyday" featuring
21:03.
Fred Hammond and
PJ Morton make guest appearances as well, along with the late
Wayman Tisdale, whose popping bass drives the great cut "Alright OK." ~ David Jeffries
