 (2 Customer Reviews)
If anyone can honestly be described as a banda equivalent of Alanis Morissette, it's Jenni Rivera. The Mexican-American singer has built a career railing against all the malditos who have done her wrong, and the fact that she has used banda as the vehicle for her angry, passionate tirades is intriguing; historically, banda has been a very male-dominated area of regional Mexican music (much more so than mariachi or ranchera). Assembled in 2004, this best-of collection offers 12 of the '90s and 2000s hits that have made Rivera one of banda's most unlikely stars, including definitive gems like "Las Malandrinas," "Querida Socia" and "Se las Voy a Dar a Otro." Although previously released material dominates the CD, Univision provides three new songs: the title track, the vulnerable "Amiga Si Lo Ves" and "Las Mismas Costumbres." With its biting lyrics, "Las Mismas Costumbres" lives up to the angry-young-woman image Rivera is famous for. But not everything on Simplemente. . . La Mejor is angry or biting. Rivera shows a sweeter side of herself on a bilingual remake of the '50s doo wop classic "Angel Baby," which lends quite nicely to a banda makeover. "Angel Baby" isn't the only example of Rivera performing a soul or doo wop hit -- she has also covered Barbara Lynn's "You'll Lose a Good Thing" and Diana Ross & the Supremes' "Where Did Our Love Go?" -- but "Angel Baby" is the most famous example (at least as of 2004) and was a logical choice for this album. Simplemente. . . La Mejor isn't the last word on Rivera's output; some essential tracks are missing, including "Escándalo." But even so, this excellent CD is an appropriate starting point if one is exploring her work for the first time. ~ Alex Henderson

With her 1992 smash "Real Love," Mary J. Blige almost single-handedly showed the world that "hip-hop" did not always mean rap. The forceful, defiant, funky R&B single was indisputably hip-hop, and was heralded as such. Sean "P. Diddy" Comb's label, Bad Boy, has become one of the icons of the rap world and always been a showcase for the best in soulful hip-hop from 112 to Carl Thomas. Fittingly, Blige's seminal hit (in this case, a remix featuring the Notorious B.I.G.) leads off BAD BOY'S R&B HITS, which collects 12 of the most compelling examples of hip-hop soul.
As it's a Bad Boy compilation, R&B ...

Italian vocalist Laura Pausini became a worldwide sensation during the first 10 years of her recording career (although her success in America is minimal compared to Europe and Latin America). PRIMAVERA IN ANTICIPO, released in 2008 in both Italian and Spanish versions, extends Pausini's command over the adult contemporary form, offering up 14 tracks that play like foreign-language versions of Celine Dion or Phil Collins. Like Pausini's previous releases, PRIMAVERA IN ANTICIPO is layered with glossy production, over which the vocalist gives passionate, dramatic performances. Highlights include "Invece No" and "Primavera in Anticipo," a duet with James Blunt.
