Advantages: lots of differnet artists
Disadvantages: so many you get mixed up

They've Made It There, To...

Advantages: Oirginal
Disadvantages: Inconsistent

In 2006 came an unexpected success as Cee-Lo Green (who found fame as an MC in the Atlanta Hip Hop group Goodie Mob, before having a solo career as a Soul singer) and Danger Mouse (the producer who in addition to these styles, has worked in a range of alternative genres), came to release “St. Elsewhere” as their debut album, going under the name Gnarles Barkley. 1. “Go-Go Gadget Gospel” The album gets underway with a lively composition as the duo ...
...from the very start of the thing by coming up with a tune whihch uses a Hip Hop-based Go-Go backing to support Cee-Lo as he sings in a style which reflects his Gospel past too to come up with one of the most exciting tracks you could possibly think up. It is a great introduction to what is to come on the album. **Five Stars** 2. “Crazy” This was the breakthrough single for the duo and I have to say that I wasn’t actually drawn to them at this point ...

The Queen Of Soul

Advantages: Every recording is good to totally superb!
Disadvantages: NONE!

...along those speedy verses of Respect (origanally by Otis Redding) with such startling conviction and when she sings those lyrics you just KNOW she means every word she says. Her pronounciations and impeccable lyrical phrasing is remarkably effective on this explosive classic and Respect rates as one of her most popular and definitive classics. As well as the more urban-contemporary material, Aretha proved most adept at experimenting in a number of ...
...equally compelling on the ballads. I Say A Little Prayer was one of her most passionate, heart-felt ballads. Whilst the lyrics were somewhat simplistic, Aretha could shrewdly plumb such depth with a straight-foward song such as this. Dr. Feel Good, the fabulous Think (which she would update in the movie, The Blue Brothers) and the sparse production of Chain Of Fools continued her staggering run of classic hits and all conveyed such an undeniably ...

...and directed by Michael Bay Bad Boys was released in June 1995. ****Story Line**** Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) and Mike Lowry (Will Smith) are partners in the Miami Police Department. Whilst Lowry is the ultimate ‘pimp’ who enjoys the playboy lifestyle of fast cars and even faster women, Burnett is the ‘traditional’ family man with a wife and 3 kids living the quiet suburbs. $100 million of heroin seized in the biggest drug bust of Burnett’s ...
...and the pair have 72 hours to get it back or potentially lose their jobs as the internal affairs division threaten to close down their division. Whilst Burnett and Lowry go on the trail of the prime suspect, Fouchet (Tcheky Karyo) a French drug baron, they ask a local prostitute they know, Maxine (Karen Alexander), to keep an eye out for any clues that could help them retrieve the drugs. Maxine, along with her friend Julie (Tea Leoni) end up going ...
