...club.” At times, Dream rivals Kellz for bawdiness, but not for creativity or personality. “Let’s take a shower / Meet you right back here in half an hour,” The-Dream sings on “Falsetto.” It could almost pass for a Kelly non sequitur—after their group shower, why exactly does Dream need 30 minutes apart from his paramour?—but there’s no charisma behind it. “Fast Car” is unfortunately not a Tracy...

...final track, “Am I Only” is the only song in which originality extends past the introduction. A guitar progression that sounds like Dashboard Confessional in slow motion supports Haves’s and Been’s voices, which taper off into a closing falsetto over what sounds like a toy xylophone.
