BETTY WRIGHT - 4u2njoy (1989) FLAC (tracks), lossless

Betty Wright's second album for Vision Records features a stunning picture of her decked out in a white outfit topped with a wide-brim, white hat. She had a hand in writing all nine songs, all of a consistent quality, but none of which are really essential. While competently done, the whole shebang reeks of another session; the lyrics are a series of clichés and street sayings, some marrying better than others. Just as any artist shouldn't put an album out every year just to keep his or her name out there (because if it's mediocre or average it won't enhance their career or get heard anyway), neither should Wright. She could likely put out killer albums every three or four years, but one per year, or every two years is a bit much at the stage of her career during which 4U2Njoy was recorded. The best of the lot includes the title track, "Keep Love New," "Valley of Lonely," and "It's Been Real." Notable is the contribution of former Rose Royce lead Gwen Dickey on backing vocals.
