The rest of the album appears to showcase the group going through a midlife crisis and attempting to reclaim their youth by using music as therapy. Honestly, what man over 35 is referring to a woman as shorty? “BadBad” is a semi up-tempo track that would be better suited for a group like Bluff City or a younger singer and not grown men in their forties. I initially went into A Jagged Love Story with an open mind, but I was already upset by the album’s third track.Ī Jagged Love Story starts out decent enough with “Intro X Falling out of Love.” Despite the unneeded autotune that accompanies the song, there’s a gentle piano arrangement in the background that makes the song work. The song was an attempt to once again sound modern and cater to a young audience, the song was an insult to R&B fans.Īt 24 years of age, the group sang lyrics such as “And baby I know that I did my share of things to deceive you” on “He Can’t Love U.” Twenty years later on, “Genie,” the lyrics are, “Girl I’ll be your genie and I will give you everything.” Talk about mundane and repetitive. The lead single from A Jagged Love Story was last fall’s “Genie, “an autotune misfire. Instead, it’s another blemish on their discography, following 2017’s abysmal, Layover. Serving as the group’s tenth album in a twenty-three-year career, A Jagged Love Story could’ve elevated the group’s legacy.
Lead signers of the group (Brandon & Brian) oversee most of the production and writing of this two-hour-plus album.
The group comprising twins Brandon & Brian Casey, Kyle Norman, and Richard Wingo have been a force in the music industry since the 1997 debut A Jagged Era. Atlanta based R&B group, Jagged Edge, returns to the music scene with their double album A Jagged Love Story.
