"Lessons In Love" by Lloyd (Universal Motown)

Lloyd has already established himself as a successful crooner: He's hopped on numerous hooks, teamed with Ashanti for a duet and had a major hit with Lil Wayne.

Lloyd makes a valiant effort to keep up the momentum as R&B's love doctor on his third release, "Lessons In Love." But he lacks the magic found on his albums "Southside" and "Street Love."

Lloyd rides solo for most of the album, except for his first single on which he reteams with Lil Wayne on "Girls Around the World" - a catchy record sampled from Eric B & Rakim classic "Paid In Full." It's reminiscent of "You," a song that both made a huge success in 2006.

Lloyd tries to come into his own on smooth ballads like the Bryan-Michael Cox-produced song "Year of the Lover" and "I Can Change Your Life," a piano-driven song on which he aims to sway a lady from her unstable relationship. Yet, both tracks lack the infectious hit capability as past hits like "Get It Shawty."

Check out this track: On "Party All Over Your Body," Lloyd's smooth and hazy voice paints a picture of seduction on the Polow Da Don-produced track.
