The biggest hit from this album was the chart-topping I Want Her, and the title track from the album also hit No. 2 on the R&B charts. Sweat continued to chart fairly well with his sophomore album Ill Give All My Love To You (1990), which hit No. 3 on the Billboard charts. Keep It Comin (1991), his next release, debuted in the Top 20 of the Billboard album chart. Sweat released his fourth album Get Up On It in the summer of 1994.
