After their techno/R&B-tinged debut single “I Want You
Back” failed to make a large impact, Secret had much better success with the
organic funk sounds of their second single “Magic.” “Magic” was a bona fide
smash hit, with an infectious, danceable beat and a powerful, eye-catching
music video. While their debut single was available only as a download, “Magic”
was released as part of this six-track mini-album. Stripped-down versions of “I
Want You Back” and its b-side “3 Years and 6 Months” were included, along with
the synthesizer-heavy dance track “Spot Light,” the straightforward pop song “Figure
It Out” and the R&B-ish “My Boy.” None of those non-single tracks is worth
the price of the album by itself, but the single tracks are strong enough to
make this disc a decent listen overall.
