 (15 Customer Reviews)
Though she initially gained fame as an actress, this multi-talented Mississippian launched a lucrative second career as a pop-savvy R&B songstress that brought her fame and success at a pace that easily outstripped her success on screen. Her early records, NEVER SAY NEVER and FULL MOON, cast her as a middle-of-the-road teen icon, but her 2008 release, HUMAN, trades in the more aggressive hip-hop-inflected R&B sounds of her 2004 outing, AFRODISIAC, which featured contributions from such luminaries as Kanye West and Timbaland. Though HUMAN sports a higher percentage of slow-burning retro-soul ballads than its immediate predecessor, former collaborator Timbaland and longtime producer Rodney Jerkins give HUMAN a carefully considered modern R&B sound that should please Brandy's fan base and relative newcomers alike.

Human album
 $24.79
While MUSICALLY RICH...AND FAMOUS documents the second half of British blues godfather Alexis Korner's career, KORNERSTONED adopts a more comprehensive approach, following the pioneering singer/guitarist from the very beginning of his musical life, all the way through every subsequent phase of his development. So we get not only his mid-1960s work with burgeoning blues-rock giants like Paul Rodgers and Steve Marriott, but also his `50s ...

| | Akon Freedom CD (2008)
Human songs
$11.79
The Senegal-born vocalist (and reigning king of cameo appearances) takes a sensitive turn on his third LP, FREEDOM. From the outset, Akon seems to have spurned his earlier hip-hop tendencies in favor of an electric Euro-pop production. The bouncy, synth-driven opening cut, "Right Now (Na Na Na)," produced by Giorgio Tuinfort, seems aimed at European ...

Human album
$16.29
Perhaps not as crash-bang energetic as a lot of bhangra, this compilation from ARC Records collects a number of the brighter stars in the bhangra world, albeit for a fairly laid-back run of the genre. The album opens with the usually highly energetic Daler Mehndi, here tossing in an excellent piece that mixes acoustic guitar with a throbbing beat and chorus. The tempo is keyed down a bit, but the energy is somehow infused from Mehndi's emotive delivery. Rajeshwari Sachdev contributes a number with a nice trip-hop style layer underneath her slinky vocals, and Rajinder Raina tosses in a piece of more traditional fare. Jasbir Jassi's first contribution tries for emotive power, but the end result is somewhat more melodramatic than it is dramatic. Despite that, the album picks right back up with more energetic pieces courtesy of both Ashoo Punjabi and Daler Mehndi. Sukhwinder Singh's version of bhangra has something of a minimalist electronica bent which verges on the menacing, but the album again picks itself back ...
