Still Here is a 2010 studio album by American soul group The Temptations. It is the 49th studio album from The Temptations and features a mix of their classic soul music vocals with some hip hop production and rapping.[1]

Reception

Editors of AllMusic Guide scored this album three out of five stars, with reviewer Andy Kellman critiquing that "the group’s handful of attempts to relate to younger listeners fall flat" and the use of Auto-Tune, but tempering his criticism with praise of the vocals and noting that the "album is heavy on laid-back love songs that are easy to enjoy, if occasionally on the tepid side".[2]
