Pros:
Syleena gives a wonderful earful of R&B variety on this CD.

Cons:
The (Outro) is the only filler track.

Some people are average singers then other have voices that can climb mountains. Syleena Johnson first made her mark in the music industry with her 2001 debut CD Chapter 1: Love, Pain and Forgiveness. Syleena s contralto voice goes through the roof on her aptly titled sophomore CD, Chapter 2: The Voice. Fresh off the success of her single Guess What, the lovely Syleena has swiftly resurfaced with the follow-up song Faithful To You.
