Buy R&B Music

I have to admit that when I first saw that Rihanna was coming out with yet another new CD so fast I thought it was going to be a quickly thrown together pile of crap. In my opinion her first 2 releases had MAYBE a handful of decent songs and then...

She Is Beautiful and Talented however this album in my opinion does not showcase her true ability. It almost changed her whole image and sound. I expected more and would think with producers like she has they would have made this more appealing.

I can't decide if I like this album or her last one better. Her last one had a few great songs, and the rest were so so. On this effort, I'm trying to like all the songs, but they are so NOT Rihanna or R&B like. There's techno, R&B, reggae, and...

This CD touches alot of different life experiences in a very powerful way. "Joy" shows of the appreciation of being able to love that special someone. "You and Me" is a smooth groove about my special boo and me. "Best Friend" is about that...

I bought this CD after reading the enthusiastic Amazon reviews, and also after having heard a jazz performance by Ledisi on a local radio station. Ledisi may be a major talent, but it's hard to judge based on this recording because the material...

With perfectly balanced song writing, beautiful melodies and a surprisingly rockin' ending, this CD leaves you asking for more from this band. I was very skeptical after hearing "By The Way" which seemed to be a seriously lack-luster album. But,...

For all of you who were looking forward to a chili peppers album that goes back to their funky roots like Mother's Milk and such older albums, prepare for dissappointment because the new cd is mostly slow, generic, pop-rock, failing to bring out...

The Chili Peppers go back to their funk roots in their newest album "Stadium Arcadium" and this example can be heard in songs like the fifth track "Hump De Bump". The songs have to grow on you. I found myself thinking that some songs are average...

Stevie Wonder has had many greatest hits packages released during his forty year career. This new collection is the first single disk set that takes into consideration his earliest work until his final days as a major chart force in the mid...

I suppose it is my own fault if I disagree with the material selection...it is a highly subjective matter. Personally I think there is too much of the earliest stuff on it that was made before he hit his mature genius. However, it is inexcusable...

Good compilation of songs onto one CD but the sound quality is lacking. It doesn't sound digitally remastered.

This is an important shout out to fans of organic R&B,soul,pop and whatever your fancy:'Once Again' is a terrific CD and John Legend is an equally terrific musician.John Legend's piano playing is so superb it will draw in the listener...

A lot of today's "artists" think they're slick when they sample music and melodies from songs 35-45 years ago and think that no one is going to notice. That's their first mistake because a lot of people still listen to Old School R&B and pop...

And therein lies the problem with this follow up. It's so personal and introspective that as a listener I feel somewhat detached from it. It's like listening to Muzak while in the waiting room at the dentist's office. Honestly I could take it...

I can't get off "Golden" because it's on repeat now. This a perfect wedding, anniversary, renewal of vows, engagement song!!! This is an awesome CD. I think her voice is amazing and the lyrics to all of her songs are so refreshing. That's what...

After listening to this debut CD from this 24 year old starlet, I am filled with mixed emotions. The first one that comes to mind is of disappointment. After hearing the first two single releases: the mid tempo 'If I Have My Way', and the...

Where do i start-first of all I like the writing, the material is great, the arrangement-not so much, i counted only 2 "hits" on the CD. I was expecting a record like "Songs in A Minor", "Get lifted", "Baduism", "Corrine Bailey Rae", but i am...

AMAZING album. i've heard him live several times, and let me tell you, he's the real deal. john is one of those performers that has that extra "something" that just can't be learned or fabricated. his sound is so new yet so familiar, so smooth...

This album is not very good at all, I was very dissapointed when I listened to this CD. It's going to be one of those CD's where it'll collect dust in my CD case. I gave it 2 stars because there is only 3 strong songs on the album out of 14 and...

To be fair, I haven't really listened to the CD in its entirety. However, I have taken a sample listen to every song but nothing catches my attention. For me that's a way I know I've paid money for a good CD when I get hooked on the first few...

The '80s were filled with great songs that either touched me emotionally or made me want to dance. Hall and Oates, talented musicians whose rock 'n soul will permeate the airwaves forever, produced some of these songs. Their newest compilation...

Where's the early work on Atlantic Records? Where's the later work on Arista Records? Isn't this just stuff from the RCA days? Is this recording that much different than Rock 'n Soul, Pt. 1?

I'm extremely frustrated with Daryl Hall and John...

Most of these songs were featured on previous Hall and Oates greatest hits CDs. Plus, there was nothing new offered. If you are a Hall and Oates fan and don't have this music on a previous CD, then you would enjoy it. Otherwise, there is...

There isn't a song on this 40-track collection that hasn't already been permanently etched on my brain. When I was a teen in the Sixties, these songs were a part of the soundtrack of my life. [Only the final four tracks charted after 1970.] read full review | report as inappropriate

This CD is absolutely great. I've been an Amos Lee fan for several years, and it has been a pleasure watching him gain more recognition for his excellent songwriting and other musical abilities.

I have always termed Amos Lee as "No...
