After climbing to the top of the charts with a #1 R&B hit, "I Wanna Sex You Up," Color Me Badd disappeared from the radar screen. The erstwhile teen heart-throbs have matured into a group of strong-voiced R&B/pop crooners. AWAKENING finds them deep into jeep soul ("All The Way Pt. 1"), head-nodding urban radio pumpers ("Kissing You") and sultry ballads ("Your Touch"). Reuniting the group with Dr. Freeze, who produced "I Wanna Sex You Up," the funk-flavored "Farmers Daughter" has a new-jack-swing feel which showcases the dynamic vocal range of the group. "It's Alright" has a way-cool Reggae breakdown and "Written All Over Your Face" has the makings of a sure-fire radio smash. Reflecting Color Me Badd's multi-ethnicity, AWAKENING offers a diverse collection of styles, songs and textures.

Album review
After climbing to the top of the charts with a #1 R&B hit, "I Wanna Sex You Up," Color Me Badd disappeared from the radar screen. The erstwhile teen heart-throbs have matured into a group of strong-voiced R&B/pop crooners. AWAKENING finds them deep into jeep soul ("All The Way Pt. 1"), head-nodding urban radio pumpers ("Kissing You") and sultry ballads ("Your Touch"). Reuniting the group with Dr. Freeze, who produced "I Wanna Sex You Up," the funk-flavored "Farmers Daughter" has a new-jack-swing feel which showcases the dynamic vocal range of the group. "It's Alright" has a way-cool Reggae breakdown and "Written All Over Your Face" has the makings of a sure-fire radio smash. Reflecting Color Me Badd's multi-ethnicity, AWAKENING offers a diverse collection of styles, songs and textures.
