EXPERT RATING:   

From AMG Reviews

On his followup to 2003's successful Chocolate Factory, scandalplagued R. Kelly spins his notoriety for sympathy, acknowledging that he's a flawed man and a sinner, but he believes in God, and he's just looking for love and peace. That, in a nutshell, are the themes of Happy People/U Saved Me, a doubledisc containing two distinct albums (just like Outkast's Speakerboxx/The Love Below). The first, Happy People, is a seductive, latenight album about positivity and love, the second all about salvation and God. Taken as a whole, the album presents Kelly a saved sinner who still struggles with temptation, struggles that are chronicled joyfully on Happy People and with remorse on U Saved Me. Since Happy People/U Saved Me delivers two distinct and cohesive albums, it offers further ammunition for those defenders of Kelly who claim that he's made the best music of his career when under fire. There's validity to that argument. Kelly has shrugged off the celeb cameos that littered his earlier work and he's backed away from any contemporary beats, relying on the classic '70s soul that has always been at the core of his best music. He's turned inward, and that insularity has helped focus him, giving Happy People the feel of an oldschool loverman record. At its core, Happy People is a seduction record and seduction has always been Kelly's strength, so it shouldn't be a huge surprise that it, overall, is the more successful album of the two, the one that sustains its romantic mood and delivers it with stylish economy. As a record, it's assured and coherent, with little flab and a consistent vision; it's one of his strongest efforts. But U Saved Me isn't far behind as a cohesive work, either, perhaps lacking the hooks of its companion, but never deviating from its religious spirit. Overall, Happy People/U Saved Me capture R. Kelly at the top of his game as a recordmaker, which makes it a definitive work of sorts.
