• "All My Life" was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal and Best R&B Song.
  
• While this dynamic, Jodeci-originated R&B duo have made their reputation as kings of sensual, even erotic, R&B, leaving no doubt as to the main topic on their collective mind, LOVE ALWAYS finds them pulling back the hedonistic reins a bit. The approach here is much more subtle, and at the same time, more romantic. In sharp contrast to their hardcore days of yore, there's an almost spiritual quality that comes through here, and the music is the richer for it. Naturally, the Hailey Brothers still possess the same authoritative vocal style that made them such an R&B sensation in the first place. Think of LOVE ALWAYS then as not a retreat from their previous work, but a refinement.
  

Rap Pages (8/97, p.88) - "...On this venture, the Hailey siblings render more of their soulful, southern Baptist, impassioned vocals, which is bound to inspire some hand-clapping, foot-stamping and heart-stirring..."
