It was recorded at various studios in New York and the Los Angeles area in 1996 and 1997. It was produced by JoJo and several others, including DeVante Swing, Jon-John Robinson, James Mtume, and Jeff Redd. The duo were originally a part of Jodeci before this album. The album peaked at sixth on the US Billboard 200 and also appeared on international charts. The single "All My Life" charted number one in multiple countries, and all four of the album's singles peaked above the top 25 in the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and the New Zealand Top 40 Singles. Love Always was received favorably by critics, who praised the brothers' singing ability and the production. The album has been certified three times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and gold by Music Canada and IFPI Sweden. As of June 1999 it had sold 2.9 million copies in the United States. /// Editorial Review: After becoming two of the best-known R&B singers of the 1990s as half of Jodeci, brothers K-Ci and JoJo Hailey formed a cohesive duo for Love Always. A definite surprise to Jodeci fans, the CD contains few traces of new jack swing and lacks the type of suggestive, R-rated lyrics the foursome had become known for. It was clear that the great soul music of the 1970s was very much on K-Ci & JoJo's minds when they made this album, an unpretentious collection of ballads and slow jams that isn't mind-blowing, but is definitely above average. In contrast to the homogenized nature of so much '90s R&B, things are refreshingly organic on such cuts as "Now and Forever," "Still Waiting," and "Baby Come Back." And an impressive cover of L.T.D.'s 1976 hit "Love Ballad" may very well be the best thing the Hailey brothers have ever done -- inside or outside of Jodeci. /// Tracklist: 1 HBI Co-producer – Craig Brockman, Producer – Jo Jo Hailey, Mike Smoov 1:51 2 Last Night's Letter Producer – Laney Stewart 4:38 3 Baby Come Back Producer – Andrew Braxton, Derrick Garrett, Fred Rosser, Jeff Redd 4:15 4 Just For Your Love Producer – Gerard "GetnPayd" Parker 5:09 5 Now And Forever Producer – Bradley*, Emanuel Officer 4:38 6 Don't Rush (Take Love Slowly) Producer – Jo Jo Hailey, Rory Bennett 3:13 7 You Bring Me Up Producer – Gerald Baillergeau, Victor Merritt 4:23 8 Still Waiting Co-producer – Jo Jo Hailey, Producer – Devante Swing 4:54 9 Love Ballad Producer – James Mtume 3:54 10 How Many Times (Will You Let Him Break Your Heart) Producer – Emanuel Officer, Jorge "G-Man" Corante 4:41 11 All My Life Producer – Jo Jo Hailey, Rory Bennett 5:31 12 How Could You Co-producer – Joey Elias, Producer – Jon-John 4:57 Executive-Producer – Damon Jones, Jeff Redd, K-Ci & JoJo About the Band: K-Ci & JoJo is an American R&B duo, consisting of brothers Cedric "K-Ci" Hailey (born September 2, 1969) and Joel "JoJo" Hailey (born June 10, 1971).
