Sexy Versus is the third studio album by Al B. Sure! It was not as successful as his previous two albums but still managed to find success on the charts, making it to #41 on the Billboard 200 and #2 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. Three singles made it to the Billboard charts: "Natalie," "Right Now," and "I Don't Wanna Cry."
The track "See The Lady" is a remix of the song "Channel J" from his previous album Private Times...and the Whole 9!. The album's second single "Natalie" was written about actress Halle Berry after he saw her in the 1991 film Strictly Business. In 2014, Sure! referred to the success of the album as well as Berry's inspiration for "Natalie" on Twitter.[1]
