Background
About the album, Aja and Fatin says "When we began compiling the songs we knew that the theme of the album would have to truly reflect the times and so we initially called it "The Great Recession" but near the end of the process with the help of our fans we decided that our statement had to express triumph so we renamed it "Love Has no Recession" and just like so many words before them, those words had already started to manifest in our lives. We placed our "Love" in all that we did and indeed it has only moved ahead. It is our prayer that this offering will inspire and as always be a voice for those who truly relate to our message. It is equally socially conscious as it is all grown up and sexy like. It is quite simply…US."Singles
