Anthony Hamilton might possibly be the best R n' B/Soul singer around at the moment. He is constantly featured on tracks with some of the biggest names in the business who wants to put a bit of soul into their tracks.
When you listen to an album in the genre Hamilton represents, you tend to find solely slow predictable tunes. But that is what differs him from the rest. 'The Point Of It All' is never boring.
Hamilton puts his voice on a great mix of tracks, all from slow love songs to up tempo tunes such as the collaboration with rapper David Banner. The whole number of songs on the album tells a story, almost a bit like he is talking to someone. I don't think the words are just made up and jot down on a piece of paper. There is a genuine feeling to the lyrics and real life experience is there, creating those words.
The album itself shines of quality, which is something we are allowed to expect after waiting since 2005 for another studio album from Hamilton.
Best track: Soul's on fire
Grade: 4/5
