• Still Ghetto Jaheim

To be elegible for this price, Add to CartWhen Jaheim announced his first album in three years, which followed five straight Top Five R&B albums, he said, 'I decided to call the project Appreciation Day because that’s exactly what this album ismy show of appreciation to them.' He was speaking about his fans, but the album's title track refers to women - more specifically, a specific part of female anatomy that he likens to a breakfast pastry.

He projects like a gospel sermon: 'For the feel of it, the scent of it, the taste, I lit a candle on top of the case.' Jaheim's boldness is at an all-time high, but there's a lot of relatively - relatively - tame romantic matter, such as the Shirley Murdock-sampling 'Morning' and the apologetic 'Baby X3.' 'Age Ain't a Factor' is a woman-honoring highlight, but Jaheim can't help but sneak in some humor ('Ladies, it's Thanksgiving, and I'm about to eat that stuffing') and deliver it like it's an ordinary line. The lover-man talk and man-to-man relationship advice, as conversational and relatable as ever, is temporarily cast aside for 'Florida,' a ballad regarding race and the fatal shooting of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin. It's limiting to refer to the song as Jaheim's most powerful work. It's something more than a performance, what with probing like 'Tell me, why don't you love your black babies the same?'

Capped by stunning Ronald Isley-like runs. Despite the involvement of over a dozen co-producers, Appreciation Day provides another well-balanced mix of contemporary and old-school sounds. It's a Jaheim album in every respect - precisely what his fans expected from him in 2013. Andy Kellman.

Neo Soul in 10 AlbumsIn the midst of the 90s when hip-hop was going through its golden age, a revolution within soul music was also underway. With Erykah Badu, D’angelo, Jill Scott and many others, the genre found again its class: an echo of the simplicity and refinement that brought to life the albums of Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield and Roberta Flack. After years in the shadow of the reigning ultra-commercial and soft R&B, the noticeably more underground Neo Soul, or Nu Soul, relit the flame of soul music and returned it to its roots in terms of both composition and lyricism. A brief but highly influential movement. Motown in 10 AlbumsThe leading authority in pop-soul music, Motown, has just turned sixty years old. This incredible record label founded by Berry Gordy produced hit after hit for Diana Ross, Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, Rick James and so many other musicians.

Still Ghetto Jaheim

Motown was first known through its singles, the popular music format at the time, but it soon adapted from 1965 onwards as albums began to emerge. The good old vinyl LP totally transformed the label that called itself “the sound of young America” and transformed its artists’ careers along with it.
