Top 5 Tracks R&B Edition-Day 26

Al B Sure!

My Top 5 will be from "In Effect Mode" but his other albums have hits as well.

Nite & Day
Ooh This Love Is So
Off On Your Own (Girl)
Killing Me Softly
Naturally Mine (What Kane N Abel sampled for "Gangstafied")
*If I'm Not Your Lover
*Rescue Me
*Hotel California (Nice remake)
*Right Now
*Playing Games
*Natalie (My wife's name.....lol)
*No Matter What You Do w/Diana Ross

In Effect mode is easily his best, but i still like Private Times and Sexy Versus quite a bit. Have you heard his album that dropped a few years ago?

Also, Secret Garden is a dope, dope collabo. I should probably buy that Quincy album just for that song.

Nite And Day
Right Now
Oooh This Love Is So
Just A Taste Of Lovin'
Naturally Mine


*Dedicate My All
*Natalie
*Off On Your Own Girl
*U & I
*I'm Glad


his last album from 2009 (Honey I'm Home) had more than a few bangers on it....a must pick-up for those late night encounters with that special someone....

Would either of you mind giving a list of some underrated New Jack releases?

Nite & Day
Right Now
Killing Me Softly
Hotel California
Secret Garden

D Powell what you know about I'm Glad?.....lol

Terry, "Honey I'm Home" is a nice CD. I liked the single but I didn't think I would check it out. Once I did, he even surprised me with how good the CD was. I am sure D Powell will co-sign. ...And you're right, you need to get "Back On The Block" as well. I am on my way to work in a minute, but if you want me to rate any CDs inparticular, just let me know Terry.

I'll get back to you on that Terry. I have a CD with some New Jack Swing R&B songs on it, but I gotta think back to the CDs. I know that Big Bub's 1st CD with "Tellin Me Stories" was pretty good and hard to find for me now, but the 1st 2 Today CDs would probably be more suited for New Jack Swing purposes.

If I'm Not Your Lover

The Jeff Redd album is good, about 3.75-4 stars. But nothing on that album is as good as"You Called And Told Me", which is a song he did on the Strictly Business soundtrack.

Now you are talking my game, Myers. I agree with Highsmith, Big Bub is essential material...cop his 'Timeless' album, I know you'll dig that one. Shit is jamming. You should also check out some Tony Terry albums, his self titled album being my favorite from him. Another underrated acts that I really dug is Basic Black. Guy-ish sound, but shit is really dope, kinda hard to find though, but it's worth copping.

That Jeff Redd (another Vernonite...lol) was about a 4 star album...you should get it Terry..

also while we're on the subject of Big Bub don't forget to get the albums he made with the group Today (Today and The New Formula)....essential r&b listening IMO....

also if you don't have it cop that Bobby Brown album (Bobby)...that's a heavy New Jack Swing effort from him because Teddy did alot of the tracks on it.....I thought it was a pretty bangin' effort man...

also of the newer variety since we're on slept on bangin' r&b efforts go cop Case's debut album (Case) and also his joint from 2009 (The Rose Experience)...get Amerie's debut (All I Have) and you must go and pick up Bobby Valentino's debut (Bobby Valentino)...all of those are some pretty decent r&b in my opinion

I have Jeff Redd singles on the 2 CD New Jack Swing R&B CD that I have but I never checked out his albums, Terry. If anyone knows where I can find those Today CDs or the 1st Big Bub, let me know. I have been looking for those for ages.

GREAT song!
