Stronger Everyday is the fourth studio album by American singer Jon B. It was released October 5, 2004 on Sanctuary Records.[1] The album spawned the singles "Everytime" and "Lately".
Background
After recording three albums for Epic Records, Jon B. felt he was being underpromoted. Stronger Everyday was originally recorded under DreamWorks Records under the working title Everyday Struggles,[2] but the label folded in early 2004 before Jon got to release any material.[3] In 2004, he was signed to Sanctuary by Destiny's Child manager Mathew Knowles who was just hired as the president of urban music at the primarily rock oriented label.[4]
Critical reception
Template:Music ratings AllMusic found that Stronger Everyday "finds a sweet soul groove and hangs in there for five alluringly sensual tracks before switching into a hip-hop-inspired style, and these tracks include guest shots from Scarface and Tupac [...] Whether he's gliding along a mellow tune or working an up-tempo beat, Jon B. presents some of his finest songs on Stronger Everyday."[5]
