AllMusic Review by Michael Gallucci
On their second album, these '90s soul sistas sex up their lives, and everything around them, quite a bit, turning their fairly standard take on the hip-hop girl group into a late-night bath of delight. But by inviting a who's-who roster into the tub with them (producers here include Missy Elliott, Sean "Puffy" Combs, and Heavy D, among others), Total -- the JaKima Raynor, Keisha Spivey, and Pam Long of the title -- are barely heard. Brimming with the sounds of the world around it, Kima, Keisha & Pam is a studio-powered album that loses its individuality while trying desperately to be a part of the streets and scene. The best track, "Trippin'," is an Elliott-produced slice of robotic R&B that combines the gals' sweet harmonies with state-of-the-soul-art studio savvy. But an album's worth of the sexy same unveils Total's ultimate limitations.

    1. Hey babe, just to let you know, I haven't forgotten about this. We're having problems with Google Album Archive at the moment. We are unable to publish or update any links due to the transcripts failing to load to the image errors. As soon as Google fixes the problem I'll update the FLAC link. Until then, I'm sorry for the long wait love. Cheers.
