Subject: R-N-B ALBUM REVIEWS Author: JumpinJack AJ [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 21:32:24 08/11/02 Sun Here is just some short lil' reviews i've written 4 recently released R-N-B albums. I hope these introduce u 2 some good R-N-B music and help u find them at their cheapest. AMERIE "ALL I HAVE" This is very impressive debut album from DC native (go Maryland!!) Amerie. Nice breezy R-N-B album perfect 4 the summertime. Beautiful vocals over timeless straight R-N-B production really makes this album stand out. I'm definitly in love with this album. There is more than a pretty face 2 this honey!! Her album is $9.99 or less everywhere u go (fye, Circit City, Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Borders). Lead single "Why Don't We Fall In Love" AVANT "ECSTASY" I just got this album so i'm still getting used 2 it. This definitly reminds me of R. Kelly in the early 90's when he waz the KING of R-N-B. Of course as a creative artist, Avant is no R. Kelly wannabe, he's got his own style and vibe. Almost everyother song has very average production that almost makes it a filler...but over half of the album is very very good. "Makin' Good Love" of course is the lead single that has been blazing the charts and countdowns for months. Circit City currently has the album for only $8.99!!! BOYZ II MEN "FULL CIRCLE" This album a nice chilled R-N-B album for the summertime. WHy the Boyz have a matured style since their early dayz, u can easily tell how they revolutionized R-N-B and had countless groups following in their footsteps. If u havn't been a big fan of the Evolution album and Nathan Michael Sawn Wanya albums, then u may not feel this album tho' i think it has more a current vibe compared 2 the the others. "Full Circle" is the Babyface-penned lead single which is great ballad. "Relax Your Mind" seems 2 be the 2nd single featuring Faith Evans (this song is GRRRRRRRREAT!!!!). The album goes back from uptempo R-N-B and even some Hip-Hop influenced trax to slow ballads filled with emotion. Their perfect harmonizing is all over the album. Boyz II Men is definitly back. The album is currently only $9.99 at Target and Circit City stores. JERZEE MONET "LOVE & WAR" Slightly u-neek R-N-B diva bring new flava on this album. Sweet vocals mixed with edgy rawness bring a style only Jerzee Monet can. Current Hip-Hop chart toppers DMX, Eve, and Ja-Rule all make an appearance on this album. I'm still getting 2 know this album but i can tell u right now that it's dope. The lyrics on this album are really something else...more than mindless love songs that so popular in R-N-B. This girl definitly bring some attitude 2 her music. The lead single is "Most High" featuring DMX...a dope song!! This album is only $7.99 at Target stores!! RUFF ENDZ "SOMEONE TO LOVE YOU" Maryland in the house once again!! Ruff Endz mix R-N-B harmony's with raw, gritty vocals. Slightly comparted 2 a mix of Boyz II Men and Jodeci/K-Ci & Jo Jo. They cover it all from smooth love anthems to pimped out joints like "Cash, Money, Cars, Cloths." Of course the timeless love song "Someone To Love You" is the lead single 2 this album. The album is $11.99 at Target. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
