The formerly pint-size MC (Bow Wow, né Lil') and the ex-boy-band singer (Omarion, late of B2K) made an adorable pair on Bow's 2005 puppy-love ode ''Let Me Hold You.'' With Face Off, they unite again to serenade lady fans — this time with a whole album of raunchier tunes — and their charm proves undeniable. Neither dude will likely be recognized as a world-class vocalist on his own. But together, Bow (he of quicksilver flow) and O (he of slender harmonies) are urban-pop Wonder Twins. B+
