The gruff-voiced singer/songwriter continues to grow on his third album, which in many ways deals with growing up and growing wiser. Jennings, who drops the between-song narrations of previous albums, talks a great deal about finding and maintaining mature relationships and taking responsibility for your actions. With a few exceptions, Jennings avoids clichés in a genre that’s full of them. That is a change for the better. — Jones

MORE URBAN VIBES: Hip-hop and soul styles also mix well in the third set from singer/songwriter producer Lyfe Jennings, "Lyfe Change" (Columbia, B+). On songs like "Keep on Dreaming" (lifting a tune fragment from Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner") and the Peter Pan-invoking "Never Never Land," this Toledo, Ohio, native issues balmy Lyfe lessons that even a Bob Marley could endorse. Elsewhere, the album's "Brand New" borrows extensively from the Gamble-Huff hit "You Make Me Feel Brand New" and also quotes the reggae hit "I Can See Clearly Now."

I listen to both of his albums faithfully- almost every day. "Cry" is my all-time favorite song on his first album, Lyfe 268-192, and "The River" is one of my favorites on his second album, The Phoenix.
