That Keith Sweat style, but all about the Christmas mood

"I've been a fan of Keith Sweat's since 1987 and, despite the occassional slight departure from his bass-heavy, keyboard-driven R&B style, his style has pretty much stayed the same, and that's a good thing. He has a tried and true style that's as entertaining and good as it was back in the late 1980s.
And that style is here on his Christmas album -- the sound's the same, but the topics are all about the holiday.
Some may not like that he doesn't perform such classics as "The Christmas Song" the traditional way, but given the familiarity of the old classic performances of such a song, it's good to hear that Keith Sweat just sang it in his style, rather than changing to mimic what we've already heard before and know full well."
