Foxx's music falls firmly into the category of sultry, hip-hop-inflected R&B a la R. Kelly. And like Kels, Foxx too has a penchant for bedroom themes, as UNPREDICTABLE pulses with the rhythm of sex. His study of Ray Charles's bluesy, elastic vocal style holds him in good stead, though: Foxx has an authoritative delivery on both uptempo grooves ("Warm Bed") and slinky slow jams ("VIP"). While not exactly groundbreaking, the album--with its superior production, excellent guest spots, and Foxx's impressive performances--still comes off a winner.
Foxx's first dualdisc release includes tracks featuring Kanye West, Mary J. Blige, and Pharell, with producers including Mike City, Underdogs, Sean Garrett, Pharrell, and Timbaland.
Jamie Foxx's second release as a solo artist is his first since his Oscar-winning portrayal of Ray Charles in the 2004 film RAY. It is natural, then, that UNPREDICTABLE would be a much higher-profile affair than 1994's PEEP THIS. The production credits include top-currency names like Timbaland and Sean Garrett. And guest stars? Forget about it. Common, Ludacris, Twista, Snoop Dogg, and Mary J. Blige, just to name a few, make appearances and help boost Foxx's credibility as one of the most popular kids on the block.
Personnel: Jamie Foxx (vocals); Mary J. Blige (vocals); Common, Kanye West, Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, Game, Twista (rap vocals).
CD universe this product was promised to me in a set period in which it did not arrive in. It arrived after a month even when I paid extra for early delivery. Also when recieving the cd it came as the dual CD which does not play on any of my CD players. Thanks very much CD universe for the purchase and letting me waste $35.

NO FLASH IN THE PAN Jamie seems to be in it for the long haul and is good at all things he puts his mind to --- the t.v. shows, the comedy, the movies and now the music. But those of us who have been following him were just wondering when he was going to drop a CD. THIS IS IT. It is a keeper. Holla at your boy. It's good. It's real good.
