R. Kelly proves that he's as prolific as he is talented on the two-disc set R., which not only culls together his most noteworthy and successful work, but is bursting with new tracks as well. Filled from start to finish with Kelly's unique blend of smooth vocal stylings and no-nonsense lyrical stance, this album also features the work of a few of his prominent friends--the opener, "Home Alone" sports a guest rap courtesy of Keith Murray, while "Money Makes The World Go Round" is graced by Nas.
A more mainstream pairing is witnessed in the dramatic show stopper "I'm your Angel," which finds Kelly alongside superstar Celine Dion, but the collaboration which really makes its mark is "We Ride," which features Cam'Ron, Noreaga, Jay-Z and Vegas Cats in a veritable who's who of Hip Hop's brightest stars. As if all this weren't enough, the mega-hit "I Believe I Can Fly" is included for good measure. Newcomers to the world of R. Kelly will be attracted by the hits, but they're sure to stay for the instant classics and star-studded party jams which make up the rest of R.

Spin (12/98, pp.180-182) - 7 (out of 10) - "...On his fourth album, the dude with the shades and shiny pate juggles street and schlock, Foxy Bown and Celine Dion, smoove-groove erotomania and anguished contrition. Prolonged exposure may leave you wondering if he isn't actually schizophrenic..."
Q (12/99, p.118) - Stars (out of 5) - "...brooding, intense songs of regret and self-accusation over broken affairs, delivered in passionate, slowburning style....a tremendous accomplishment, a watershed for Kelly, who has never been so accessible, so memorable, so interesting..."
Mojo (Publisher) (1/99, p.102) - "A rare beast this, a double CD over two hours long that doesn't outstay its welcome....All soul giants need songs like [these] in the repertoire." Hide Description R. Review

Purchase R. CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Backstreet Boys Millenium CD (1999)
R. album
 $10.19    
MILLENNIUM was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Album Of The Year and for Best Pop Vocal Album. "I Want It That Way" was nominated for Record Of The Year and for Song Of The Year.
"Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
The Backstreet Boys self-titled 1997 debut album endeared the group to millions of teens and pre-teens with its radio-friendly blend of pop harmonies and danceable beats. MILLENNIUM finds the Boys in the unenviable position of following up the mind-blowing success of the first album. Less ambitious artists might wither under such pressure, but the Backstreet Boys beat the dreaded sophomore slump in style. In the tradition of the debut, the album is a combination of romantic ballads guaranteed to make your little sister sob, and syncopated, eminently danceable, upbeat tunes. Throughout, it's the rich combination of the members' voices that creates the distinctive sound the group's legion of fans has grown to love. Most notably though, there is an added maturity in both the songs and the performances. It seems, regardless of their fans' fervent wishes, that even Backstreet Boys can't help but grow up.
Additional personnel includes: Chieli Minucci (acoustic & electric guitars); Dennis Gallo (acoustic guitar, keyboards); Dominic Miller, Esbjorn Ohrwall, Jojje Wadenius, Billy Chapin (guitar); Paul Howards (saxophone, keyboards, percussion); Andrew Fromm (piano); Edwin "Tony" Nicholas (keyboards, bass, drum programming); Kevin Richardson (keyboards, bass); Peter-John Vettesse, Olle Romo (keyboards, programming); ...
| | Faith Hill Breathe CD (1999)
R. CD music
$9.99 
Faith Hill won the 2000 CMA Award for Female Vocalist Of The Year.
BREATHE won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Album. "Breathe" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. "Let's Make Love" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals. "Breathe" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award in the categories of Best Country Song and Song Of The Year. "The Way You Love Me" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Song.
With her third album, FAITH, Faith Hill tasted pop crossover success--and she evidently liked the taste. BREATHE, Hill's fourth release, takes the pop/country stylings of FAITH to the next level. It's an appealing collection of pop, gospel, R&B, rock, and ballads, with just a bit of country thrown in. The production, featuring Hill's big voice surrounded by booming drums and screaming guitars, is so slick you could skate on it.
Love is the subject of nearly every song, from the exuberant "I Got My Baby," to the soulful "Love Is a Sweet Thing," to the cutesy "The Way You Love Me," with its Beatlesque backing vocals. But while Hill can obviously handle a wide range of material, she sounds best on the quieter, country-flavored numbers, like the title track, the lovely "It Will Be Me," and a haunting, vaguely Latin-flavored reworking of Bruce Springsteen's "If I Should Fall Behind." The most emotional track is "Let's Make Love," a full-fledged duet with Hill's husband Tim McGraw. Because McGraw's voice is unmistakably country, Hill adopts a similar sound to match him. And because you know they've lived the lyrics, the song--about reconnecting emotionally and physically with your mate--comes across as undeniably real.
Principally recorded at Ocean Way, Nashville, Tennessee.

| | Beloved DVD (1998) Widescreen
R. music CDs
 $10.49 
Oprah Winfrey collaborated with director Jonathan Demme (SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) for this African American ghost story, set in 1870s Ohio. Demme adapted it from Toni Morrison's Pulitzer-winning book. Former slave Sethe (Winfrey) lives with her daughter Denver (Kimberly Elise) in a house haunted by the malignant spirit of Sethe's long-dead infant. Sethe is also haunted by memories of her life of slavery at Sweet Home, the Kentucky plantation where she was raised. Enter Paul D. (Danny Glover), a fellow slave from Sweet Home, who stays at the house to start a new life with Sethe and Denver. Unfortunately their plans for happiness are foiled with the unexpected arrival of Beloved (Thandie Newton), a mysterious woman that may be the physical manifestation of Sethe's dead child. Horrifying secrets are revealed leading to a shattering climax.
Exquisite cinematography by Tak Fujimoto gives the film its stark beauty, and the performances are all splendid, particularly Winfrey's, and Newton's as the strange, hissing girl-child. Evocative recreations of the time, and disturbing flashbacks to the terrors of Sweet Home are ...

| | Dru Hill Enter The Dru CD (1998)
R. album
$12.05
On their sophomore effort, Sisqo, Nokio, Woody and Jazz drop another gem. Following up on their 1996 debut, ENTER THE DRU finds Dru Hill delivering the same cutting-edge R&B that has made them a worldwide success. Contributions from some of the most talented contemporary writers and producers make ENTER THE DRU a hard album to resist. Super-hitmaker Babyface co-wrote and co-produced the first single, "These Are the Times," while David Foster co-produced the Diane Warren ballad "What Do I Do With The Love." Wu-Tang's Method Man flips a verse on "This Is What We Do."
There are plenty of trademark Dru Hill ballads such as "One Good Reason," "I'll Be The One' and "What Are We Gonna Do." Be sure to check out the Daryl Simmons-produced "The Love We Had (Stays On My Mind)," which is a cover of a classic Dells song. With the huge success of their debut album, one can imagine the inherent difficulty in following it up. ENTER THE DRU is everything Dru Hill fans could want and more.
Producers include: Dru Hill, Dutch, Daryl Simmons, Warryn "Smiley" Campbell, Babyface.
Engineers include: Jon Smeltz, Manny Marroquin, Joe Warlick.

| | Ying Yang Twins Me & My Brother CD (2003)
R. songs
$10.55
ME & MY BROTHER, the third album by Atlanta's Ying Yang Twins, follows the duo's prominently featured role on the Lil Jon & the Eastside Boys top 5 crossover hit "Get Low." In fact, the album capitalizes on that success immediately with "Georgia Dome," a sound-a-like sequel to that inescapable, infectious single. Crown Princes of Crunk, the Ying Yang Twins, Kaine and D-Roc, are all about following their ids, creating pared-down songs about sex, alcohol, blunts, and more sex--a formula the Twins use well. Kaine and D-Roc understand that there are values in simplicity and, indeed, the most memorable song is the catchphrase-worthy anthem "Hanh!"
Making the most of their guest appearance on ME & MY BROTHER, Lil Jon & the Eastside Boyz return a favor to the Twins, while adding one more song to the booty canon as they implore the ladies to shake it like a "Salt Shaker." And, in an inspired collaboration, two of the strongest, brashest voices to break out of the South--Killer Mike & Bone Crusher--trade rhymes on the predictably unchallengable "What The F***!" ME & MY BROTHER rolls on like that--a straightforward, raw, danceable record.
Recorded at Collipark, College Park, Georgia; The Zone, Norcross, Georgia; Sound Lab Studios, Smryna, Georgia; TDD, Miami, Florida.
The Ying Yang Twins: D-Roc, Kaine (rap vocals).
Producers: Beat-In-Azz, Lil Jon, Derrick Williams.

| | King Of Crunk & Bme Recordings Present Lil Scrappy & Trillville CD (2004)
R. album
$9.99
The Parental Advisory version of this CD is available with two different covers, one featuring Trillville (Reprise 48556), and the other featuring Lil Scrappy (Reprise 48691).
The crunk sound bubbled out of secret swamps underneath the gritty streets of Atlanta well over a decade before Lil Jon and his Eastside Boyz were proclaimed kings. However, undeniable ex-DJ and record executive Lil Jon brought out the music's most granular, elemental form and drove the aggressive, infectious, dance-floor grinding sound into an unforeseen stratosphere of platinum. Fittingly, the rap guru showcases two of Atlanta's strongest purveyors of crunk, Trillville and Lil Scrappy, with two individual albums worth of material packed and intertwined on one relentlessly pounding record.
Lil Scrappy opens, declaring "I'm on top of the world, ma," which embodies the inebriated spirit of the Southern-fried sound, then promptly gets rowdy with anthems like "Head Bussa" and the sinister "No Problem." Trillville's three-headed monster of Big Mouf, Don P, and LA brings it even harder and more unyieldingly, rapping disturbingl over a variation on the Halloween theme on "Get Some Crunk in Yo System" and righteously rhythmic over a game-show refrain on "Weakest Link." Lil Jon knows how to mix music, and the two acts he combines weave into each ...

Best known as the lead singer of the Staple Singers, Mavis hasn't always kept to singing about the good book: in the '70s she made several ventures into secular music including this album, produced and written by Curtis Mayfield for his Curtom label in 1977. This was also of course the soundtrack to the Poitier/Crosby film of the same name: it features some heady sexual innuendo (particularly on 'Getting Deeper' 'Koochie, Koochie, Koochie' and 'Good Lovin Daddy', that one you would not expect from such a churchgoing lady, as well as several ventures into hard ...
