Addiction is the sixth studio album by American R&B singer Chico DeBarge.

[1] AllMusic editor Andy Kellman rated the album three out of five stars and wrote "DeBarge's attempts at staying up with performers half his age – that is, in terms of lyrical salaciousness and references to Patrón – tend not to be pulled off so well.

Nevertheless, this set should please the followers who were a little put off by the haziness of 2003's (actually pretty great) Free.

"[2] Tyler Lewis from PopMatters called the album the "strongest contemporary soul record of the year so far (along with Maxwell's BLACKsummers'night) and a beautiful re-introduction to a major, unsung talent."

Though they aren't necessarily bad songs, they are aggressively average enough to keep Addiction from being the masterpiece it clearly could have been.
