This is how lovers rock should be done: the music (courtesy of Mad Professor) is buttery smooth, Kofi's vocals are similarly mellow -- yet with a sultry power that demands your attention -- and the melodies are supple enough to fit into any R&B radio station's nightly "Quiet Storm" programming. Unlike some lovers rock, the material here never treads into the pop realm to a disgusting degree (although there is an R&B remake of Midnight Star's classic "Curious."). But her lyrics don't always stick to pure lovers content. "Big John," for instance, is a poignant tale of a sympathetic killer, while "Black Pride" focuses on, well, black pride. Nevertheless, Kofi's soothing lovers style is consistent, no matter what the lyrical content. Along with the previously mentioned tracks, "There Must Be," "Didn't I," and "Reggae Starship" are especially strong, but all of the cuts on Black...With Sugar come together to set a mood that is hard to resist.

I'm an encyclopedia my nigga I spit facts facts
We don't do no politicking nigga we just pack that
Talk about my life, real shit don't do no cap rap
Grew up in the borough with my dogs, we attack rats
All I do is stack that
Flow incredible it got me spazzing like I'm jack jack
Talk about my life, real shit don't do no cap rap
Grew up in the borough with my dogs, we attack rats

All my whips on black black
Drifting in a red eye helli, this is not no scat pack
Running to the money all these niggas yeah they lack that
Yeah I'm winning big at 21 like it's black jack
Press me that's a no no
Velli got the stick he'll have you dancing like a gogo
Got so many checks on me I wear them like a logo
And you're shordie checks on me she in love with the Koko
I could take her to Soho
You ain't never been my nigga you don't even know those
Even if I took your bitch I'm blessing you the promo
But I ain't no Santa nigga I can't cuff a ho ho ho ho

I'm an encyclopedia my nigga I spit facts facts
We don't do no politicking nigga we just pack that
Talk about my life, real shit don't do no cap rap
Grew up in the borough with my dogs, we attack rats

Trap jumping like it's 3D
Every nigga wanna be me
I've been sliding in a GT
Neck it looks like Fiji
Hopping over borders making money like it's Cedis
Still the same nigga flipping cellies on Kijiji
I got shordies in my dms and they freaky freaky freaky
I ain't giving out no freebies
You better believe me
I don't even need to see the keys like I'm Stevie
My dogs they do it easy
I'm just talking freely
Young rich nigga I'm the new endangered species

I'm an encyclopedia my nigga I spit facts facts
We don't do no politicking nigga we just pack that
Talk about my life, real shit don't do no cap rap

Talk about my life, real shit don't do no cap rap
Grew up in the borough with my dogs, we attack rats
