The album sold a solid but modest three million copies worldwide, which paled in comparison to the numbers their previous releases did. 1 on both the Billboard 200 and R&B Album charts, but it would be the last time that Boyz II Men would see that apex. Although the album got a relatively sleepy start with ballads, it woke up halfway through thanks to productions from Sean 'Puffy' Combs and a few of his bad boys ( Stevie J, Ron 'Amen-Ra' Lawrence and Jeffrey 'J-Dub' Walker) on 'Can't Let Her Go,' 'Come On' and 'To The Limit' and Keith Crouch who contributed 'Baby C'mon' and 'All Night Long.' Unfortunately, of those songs, only 'Can't Let Her Go' was released as a single and it made little impact, with the rest of the tracks largely becoming forgotten about album cuts despite there being a few bops among them.Įvolution debuted at No. The Boyz also took on New Edition's 'Can You Stand the Rain' with a slowed down a cappella remake that showcased their otherworldly harmonies. Evolution also got a boost from the follow-up single 'A Song For Mama,' which was also featured on the Soul Food Soundtrack and has been trotted out on every Mother's Day or occasion honoring mothers since. Lead single '4 Seasons of Loneliness,' while a sweet song about the lingering feelings of heartbreak wasn't bad, was no 'Motownphilly' or 'I'll Make Love To You.' Nonetheless, the track debuted at No. However, the material itself was all a bit lackluster. Don't get it twisted, Shawn Stockman, Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris and Michael McCary sounded as amazing as ever on Evolution there was no change in the quality of their vocals.
