 (5 Customer Reviews)
During the span of the '90s when R&B groups ran amuck on the pop charts alongside the boy band and teen idol phenomenons, Dru Hill captured more than their fair share of the audience, thanks in no small part to Sisqó's solo smash "Thong Song," which sustained their momentum for a little bit longer and broadened their audience beyond their loyal and established R&B fan base. And before the "Thong Song" entered the consciousness of mainstream America and desperate housewives everywhere, Dru Hill racked up a string of hits like "Tell Me," "How Deep Is Your Love," and "Never Make a Promise" that kept them in the top of the R&B charts for a good span of the late '90s. Those hits and more are included here, but after only issuing four full-lengths, the selections tend to run dry after a spell, hence the inclusion of Sisqó's two solo hits. That said, everything the casual listener could ever want or need is included on Hits. It's a good place to collect all of the important moments from the group's career if you hadn't been one of the countless fans who purchased all of their releases already. ~ Rob Theakston

Purchase Hits CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Pretty Ricky Bluestars CD (2005)
Hits album
 $10.15  
"Get You Right," a smooth throwback ballad from Miami outfit Pretty Ricky's debut, BLUESTARS, features a hardcore rap that name-checks 1990s groups H-Town and Jodeci. While the four youthful brothers of Pretty Ricky were likely in grade school when these artists had their hits, it's a fitting reference; the quartet's sound reveals an innate feel for the New Jack Swing sound of that time. This approach is evident in both the record's production and its raw sensuality, and the overall vibe is updated with a Dirty South sensibility.
Pretty Ricky features three rappers--Slick, Spectacular, and Diamond--augmented by the resonant voice of Pleasure, whose alluring style falls somewhere between Stevie Wonder and R. Kelly. The subject matter of BLUESTARS tends toward that of the latter ...
| | Back To The Future - The Very Best Of Jodeci CD (2005)
Hits CD music
$10.39 
Following close on the heels of a name-check on Twista's "Slow Jamz," and half of the group (K-CI & JoJo) releasing their own "best of" collection, bedroom-soul icons Jodeci came out with their own greatest-hits album, BACK TO THE FUTURE: THE VERY BEST OF JODECI. The two sets of brothers who comprised Jodeci earned an exalted rank in early-'90s soul via sensual torch songs bathed in funk with firm roots in the unforgettable melodies of Motown. The group could seduce ...
| | R Kelly TP.3: Reloaded CD (2005) Bonus DVD; Limited Edition
Hits music CDs
$8.99
The rest of the album provides thirteen tracks of Kelly's typically strong and sensual modern R&B. He starts off the record with a reminder that he's far from a one-note artist, coming on as hard as anyone with the anthemic single "Playa's Club," then rolls into a 1970s groove with help from the always-spectacular Snoop Dogg on "Happy Summertime," before easing into a set of slow jams highlighted by the lusty "In the Kitchen" and the breezy "Slow Wind." As much as R. Kelly can't seem to stop getting himself into trouble, he also can't stop releasing original, arousing albums. ...

| | R. Kelly - Trapped In The Closet: Chapters 1-12 DVD (2005)
Hits album
 $10.45 
Released on the eve of R. Kelly's court date, where he faced some serious charges and a very incriminating videotape, the first five chapters of the Closet Cycle confused, amazed, and delighted his fans. The entirety of the series, including all 12 chapters, is sure to have the same effect. Essentially an R&B soap opera, complete with the sets, lighting, convoluted plotlines, and scandalous secrets of daytime TV, TRAPPED IN THE CLOSET features its star and a cast of characters very literally acting out the actions the song describes. The plot involves numerous infidelities, a homosexual affair, a gun, and--as this is an R. Kelly piece of work--at least one steamy sex scene. The attention to detail is astounding, hilarious, and typical of Kelly, as he ...

After a brief retirement from the mid- to late-'70s (during which time Van Vliet devoted himself to painting), Captain Beefheart (a.k.a. Don Van Vliet) brought together a solid new Magic Band to record SHINY BEAST. The original tapes were recorded by Frank Zappa, but have never been released (the parenthetical part of ...

| | Melechesh Emissaries CD (2006)
Hits CD music
$31.20 
The only unanswerable question about Melechesh's fourth album, Emissaries, is whether its one of 2006's best black metal albums, or best world metal albums. Yes, conservative world music fans may positively tremble at the thought, but it wouldn't be a stretch to saddle these proponents of "Mesopotamian Metal" with the world metal tag, such is their persistence in incorporating Middle Eastern flavors -- both contemporary and as old as civilization itself -- into their furious metallic onslaught. Steeped in Chaldean mythology from top to bottom, Emissaries is a collection of Sumerian spells and Mesopotamian mysticism supported by a blistering barrage of extreme metal ferocity that's really rather fitting when you consider the bloody brutality of the stories being told. Take "Rebirth of the Nemesis," for instance, whose lyrics rewrite the Babylonian creation epic of Enûma Elish (by resurrecting the mother goddess Tiamat to exact revenge upon her murderer and supreme successor Marduk) to the sound of vicious but cleanly recorded black metal infused with Middle Eastern melodies and beats emphasizing the 3 and 4. The fact that vocalist Melechesh Ashmedi's strangled rasp might sound like a Mesopotamian Muppet to some could undermine the ambition of such fascinating subject matter, but when the song reaches its ...
