MOV (also titled Men of Vizion) is the second album by R&B group Men of Vizion released by MJJ Music and Sony Records on May 4, 1999.[1] The album had a noticeable change in sound as producer Teddy Riley was mostly absent from this album, save for the song "I Need Love". MOV is also noticeable for being their first album with an all new line-up as original members Brian DeRamus, Corley Randolph and Desmond T. Greggs would depart from the group. They were replaced by Michael Best, DeWayne Jones and Anthony Fuller- formerly of the early 1990s quintet Riff.
They worked with producer Fred Jerkins III (brother of producer Rodney Jerkins) on MOV, who produced the first single "Do You Feel Me (...Freak You)". The song also appears in remix form as a ballad under the title "If I Told You". This album is notable for the song "Miracles", which was one of the final songs penned by singer-songwriter Kenny Greene before his passing in 2001.
