Hold On (High Inergy album)

Hold On was the fifth album by High Inergy. Like their previous three albums, this one was a commercial and critical disappointment. It peaked at #70 on Billboard's R&B Album charts and failed to make the Top 200 Pop Album charts. The album spawned one chart single, a cover of Bettye Swann's #1 R&B hit, Make Me Yours, which Andrew Hamilton in his All Music Guide review described as "better-than-the-original." Unfortunately, High Inergy's version failed to achieve the chart success of the original, peaking at just #68.[1]

gollark: That's subjective.
gollark: No, but I don't think it's very good.
gollark: It's not enforced until October, mind.
gollark: To get your bot on more than 100 servers and get a badge or something, yes.
gollark: It really isn't. It's not end to end encrypted, they require pictures of you for "verification" for bots, and T&S can probably arbitrarily read any messages.
