Essential R&B.... let's see shall we...
The first song on this album is Eamon's F*** it. Pretty good way to start the album, admittedly its an old tune now but it probably was the most popular and most played (well one of the) of 2004. Who didn't hear that song?
It includes a lot of the most popular chart songs of 2004 and before, such as 50 Cent's In Da Club, R Kelly's Ignition Remix, another classic, and Usher's You got it Bad.
The songs on the album are varied - there's a couple of hip hop type songs, a few slower songs that are more love songs than anything, and of course, a lot of R&B.
The second disk starts with Outkast's Hey Ya, which gets the disk off to a good start! No Scrubs and Hot in Herre are also present, as well as, strangely, Natasha Bedingfield's Single? I found that pretty strange.
I believe this CD was around £13 when I purchased it, but you'll probably be able to pick it up for a couple of quid now, as it's quite old. Probably not worth the amount I paid for it, but still an adequately good listen.

Advantages: Variety Disadvantages: None
This cd was given to me as a birthday present a few years back. I have to say i am in love with it. It is perfect as it is mixed so there is a lot of variety, There is a bit of hip-hop, some rap, obviously r&b, throw some love songs and slow racks in and voila..the eprfect album. It is on two disks and has many favourites on it such as In Da Club (50 Cent), Breathe (Sean Paul), F*** U (Eamon-Ledgend songg) and my personal favourite, Mundian To Bach ...

I do like this c.d because the songs and lyrics are very good. It was better when it first came out because the songs are getting old now as this was released in 2004. so i wouldnt advise you to go out and buy it now.
