Lorenz’s vocal performance is the standout element. He possesses a high tenor that borders on a whistle register, similar to his mentor Mariah, but with a distinct soulful grit. On "Someone To Hold," he isn't just showing off range; he is selling the emotion of the lyrics. The song is a plea for companionship and real love, a theme that was the lifeblood of 90s R&B. It fits comfortably alongside tracks by Boyz II Men or Babyface from the same year.

Trey Lorenz’s debut album is considered a "hidden gem" of 90s R&B. If you enjoy "Someone To Hold," the rest of that album is highly recommended.
