R&B Prince Kris Lawrence launches "Spread the Love" album

R&B Prince Kris Lawrence launches "Spread the Love" album

There's no shortage of love in this long-awaited album from Kris Lawrence. On "Spread the Love", his third album and first since signing with GMA Records, the R&B Prince finds himself exploring the emotivetrappings linked with all things love and gives his own interpretation of it-with, more often than not, insistently impressive results.

Fans of R&B and pop will find much to appreciate on Kris' 12-track effort. Leading the soul-fueled record is the imploring mid-tempo single "Sabihin Mo Naman". Layering keys, synths, and beats, it's a slow burn

ballad that builds to memorable infatuation pleads. Hardly desperate yet effectively sincere at getting his message across.
