The Kiss (album)  The Kiss is the third studio album by gospel group, . Featuring production by PAJAM, "Uncle Freddie" Jerkins and Myron Butler, "musically, "The Kiss" is urban contemporary/neo-soul with hip-hop elements, but lyrically", the album "is gospel". Described as "promoting Christianity" in a non-"divisive" manner, the album features lyrical input from the group themselves. A critical success, the album also fared well commercially, peaking at number two on the US "Billboard" Top Gospel Albums, number three on the Top Christian Albums chart, number fifteen on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and number eighty-five on the "Billboard" 200. "The Kiss" received positive reviews from critics. Alex Henderson of "Allmusic" praised the "vocal power" of the group, commenting that they could "hold their own against most of urban contemporary's secular female vocal groups". Henderson also compared "The Kiss", musically, to the works of "secular female vocal groups" such as "Destiny's Child, Brownstone, En Vogue" and "TLC", in that it "is urban contemporary/neo-soul with hip-hop elements", but was keen to stress that "it does combine an urban contemporary/neo-soul groove with a gospel message". Henderson also commended "the expressive singers" for not being "in-your-face" or "divisive" about explaining "why Christianity works for them", going on to describe "The Kiss" as "a pleasing example of how Christian-oriented lyrics can be relevant to 21st century R&B". Anne Adams of "Cross Rhythms" gave a particularly favorable review of "The Kiss". Rating the album ten-out-of-ten, Adams noted “Holla” (which she described as "infectious"), “Dance Like Sunday”, “People Get Ready”, “The One For Me” and “All Of My Life” as being "standout songs". "The Kiss" proved to be Trin-i-tee 5:7's greatest commercial success on the US albums charts. It became the group's first album to chart within the top 100 half of the "Billboard" 200, peaking at eighty-five. Considerably more successful on the "Billboard" component charts, the album also became Trin-i-tee's highest charting on the "Billboard" Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, where it peaked at number fifteen.
