History
The album topped the R&B albums chart, their second consecutive overall to do so. It also reached number 16 on the Billboard 200. The single edit of the title track became the group's fourth R&B chart-topper, while "I'm Coming Home" peaked at number 3—both singles also reached the top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100, as did an edited version of the seven-minute slow jam "Love Don't Love Nobody", which has become a quiet storm radio classic.
