Acclaim doesn't tranfer to success or stability. And end result of acclaim can be success , but acclaim itself has nothing to do with success or stability. Here's the definition of acclaim: 1 : APPLAUD, PRAISE 2 : to declare by acclamation intransitive senses : to shout praise or applause You can be acclaimed by 1 person, or 5 million people. I do acclaim Kevin and Derrick, it's just that I also acclaim all the other hard working people who have sacrificed quite a bit to ensure that we all have a little Soul in our Music. Now if only more music had SOUL!
