Heaven (1997)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Lead Performance: Jai

Jai’s languidly romantic songs, many of which he cowrote under his real name, Jason Rowe, showcase his strikingly androgynous voice. But at times, the tinny electronic accompaniment clashes with the 23-year-old British newcomer’s silky-smooth retro-soul sound. The high point is the lush “I Believe,” the closest this gets to heaven.
