Keith Sweat is the fifth studio album by the American singer Keith Sweat. It was released by Elektra Records on June 25, 1996 in the United States. The single, "Twisted", made it to number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, his biggest hit ever on that chart. "Nobody" peaked at number 3 on the same chart. Both songs are his final two of six hits to reach number one on the R&B singles chart and gave Sweat two more Top 5 pop hits in eight years since his first single, "I Want Her". Critical reception Allmusic editor Leo Stanley found that "Sweat turns in a typically stylish and sophisticated set of urban soul and new jack swing, all highlighted by his silky singing. Sweat's main talent is for smooth ballads, and Keith Sweat is filled with excellent selections, including the seductive "Come with Me," which features guest vocals by Ronald Isley. The album does bog down a bit with uneven material, but its high points are as captivating as any of Sweat's previous work." In a lukewarm review, Los Angeles Times writer Connie Johnson wrote "what sounded new in 1987 may not be groundbreaking today, but Sweat can still crank out a Jeep jam or a temperature-teasing boudoir ballad with the best of them." Chart performance The album is the most successful of Sweat's career. It went to the US Billboard 200, debuting at number 5; it was the final of five consecutive albums from the artist to reach number one on the Top R&B Albums chart. The album has occasionally re-entered the Billboard 200, with the most recent occurrence being the week of February 19, 2011. On July 7, 2004, Keith Sweat was certified quadruple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), for shipments of four million copies in the United States. In 1996, the singles "Twisted" and "Nobody" were both certified platinum by the RIAA, for shipments of one million copies in the US.
