    The Romantic may lack the edge of 24K Magic, but no one is getting locked out of heaven anytime soon.

    He is still a charismatic performer and a naturally talented singer with a tone that can switch quickly from crystalline delivery to a rum-soaked rasp in his upper belt. When he channels the latter, The Romantic reaches its better moments. .... But even when the album finds its groove, it never really delivers the romance.

    While everything seems to check out sonically, the project lacks the charisma that Mars and .Paak brought to An Evening with Silk Sonic.
