24-7
Artist: Kevon Edmonds
Community Score: 10.00

Kevon Edmonds' solo debut 24-7 proves that he can make it on his own, apart from After 7, even if it isn't a full-fledged knockout. Like his brother Babyface, Edmonds has an appealingly sophisticated spin on contemporary urban soul, never pushing the music too hard and keeping everything smooth and suave. This elegant approach carries him... Read More

Never Say Never - AUSTRALIA LIMITED BONUS CD
Artist: Brandy
Community Score: 10.00

Shortly after the release of her eponymous debut in 1995, Brandy became a star.

That's why The Best of En Vogue is... Read More

R. - BONUS TRACK
Artist: R. Kelly
Community Score: 10.00

At the beginning of the '90s, R. Kelly was seen as a lewd, lascivious soulman. By the end of the decade, he had stripped those adjectives away and was seen as a contemporary equivalent of Marvin Gaye, thanks to the enormous success of "I Believe I Can Fly." Appropriately, R., the double-disc album that followed "I Believe I Can Fly"'s parent... Read More

Guy III
Artist: Guy
Community Score: 10.00

In the interim, both Hall brothers released solo albums, and Riley continued his hit-making success by producing Bobby Brown, Michael... Read More
