This album is absolutely ESSENTIAL for 90s R&B music lovers to add in their collection! I enjoy listening to all the tracks. If I had to pick my top 5, it would be "Anything", "Right Here/Human Nature", "Weak", "Downtown", and ""You're Always on My Mind".
Their album was released by RCA Records on October 27, 1992. It earned 11 Billboard Music Award nominations and became the 16th best-selling album of 1993 in the United States, with 2,100,000 copies sold according to Nielsen SoundScan. It also earned SWV a nomination for Best New Artist at the 36th Grammy Awards. In 1996, It's About Time was certified 3x platinum, for shipping over 3,000,000 albums in the US alone.
The album spawned five hit singles with "I'm So into You", "Downtown", "Weak", a remixed version of "Right Here/Human Nature" (the latter two reached number one on the R&B singles chart, with "Weak" being their biggest and only number-one pop hit), and "You're Always on My Mind" (shortened to "Always on My Mind" for single release). A remixed version of "Anything" appeared on the soundtrack of the film Above the Rim in 1994 and was released as the final single from It's About Time.
