After riding a "Stand By Me" sample to Number One with 2007's "Beautiful Girls," this 19-year-old reggae-pop charmer strives for maturity on his follow-up. Cuddly classicism gets replaced by club-friendly synths and hip-hop manliness, courtesy of producers like J.R. Rotem and RedOne. The roly-poly crooner shows some lovable insecurity on "Face Drop," telling a girl, "Sayin' that I'd look better if I was thinner/Don't you know you should've loved me for my inner." For the most part — despite Auto-Tuned slow songs — Kingston's mix of young-adult desire and disco heat shows he can cross over in unexpected directions.
