A taster and critique of rare R&B/urban music from yesteryear... there are no downloads here. For people wishing to hear the stuff I post, You Tube videos from my collection are available for a limited time and for any past posts you can (Listen here.) Sorry but I do not post full songs. Any samples shared are purely for demonstration purposes only. Most, if not all, of the things I post are out-of-print and follow the guidelines for Fair Use policies. If you want the music then you'll have to go out and buy it yourself. I do not support file sharing.
Everything I post is owned IN PHYSICAL by either myself or my co-contributors Stuaaart (US) and Lewsic (UK). I don't harass artists and producers for their unreleased work and I don't post blog freebies, trades or stuff that is available on iTunes or Amazon.
Another fairly decent indie R&B group, this time signed by Edward Holland (formally of Holland-Dozier-Holland) in the late 90s-early 2000s. They released two singles (Someone Else's Guy and Dog Food) which pretty much went unnoticed and their album was not an easy one to find. Definitely one of the best so far though. Very contemporary-sounding and pretty much in line with many other late 90s/early 2000s female R&B groups already mentioned on this blog, but if I could compare them with anyone specifically it would probably be TLC. They definitely have their same in-your-face attitude as regards the opposite sex, something that I've only ever seen a few other female groups pull off without sounding cheesy or just plain silly. All tracks are R&B with the exception of track 15 which sounds like it was inspired in part by Janet's 1993 song Throb...
