After The P-(C, and G)-Funk Came...

Advantages: Some big tunes
Disadvantages: Slower tracks are generally weak

“The B-Funk” was released in1995 and came as the debut album from the Wolverhampton-based Soul and R&B singer Beverly Knight. Although it didn’t receive the amount of attention that later releases from the artist would get, it enabled her to get a feel for what she would later work her way towards as she became more popular and broke into the mainstream. 1. “The B-Funk” (Intro) 2. “Moving On Up” Following an a capella introduction, you find that ...
...release and drops some of her funky stuff on the listeners by getting into this fly cut where (after having shown the potential she has in her vocals) she gets into some of the popular contemporary work and does a good job at coming through with that sort of infectious material to break the listeners in. **Four Stars** 3. “Mutual Feeling” Here she gets into what was the final single from the album and one of her least successful efforts, however ...

Conya Doss - leading the Nu Soul Movement

Advantages: Soulful, Sweet and full of love
Disadvantages: Inapplicable

This Album consists of 11 jam sessions with Conya Doss and her funky band. She has got a sweet voice, rich harmonies and a vibe that is contageous. A mix of Jazz, Hip-hop basslines, and R&B that really hits deep. The album is mainly about love, in style and in flow. It may be too much for some but in my opinion appreciated for what it is, it certainly is something special. Conya Doss is an excellent performer if she is ever touring near you its definately ...
...definately recommend. My favourite tracks would have to be "Track 2 - Here we go again" which has a steady rhythm and funky melodies. "Track 8 - Aint givin up" has a great message, "I aint giving up on you" something I think people should hear more often. Great singing and definately a great album for long journeys or extended peroids of work. ...

Can't Nobody Do X-Mas Like...

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: One weak track

...5 Christmas Album” is as the title indicates a Christmas-themed release from the Indiana Pop, Soul and Disco group The Jackson 5. Released in 1970, it was their fourth overall album (in spite of making their Motown debut the year before) and finds that Jermaine, Michael, Tito, Marlon and Jackie come together to bring a record that has them both covering classics and bringing new, original songs too. 1.“Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” The ...
...have a soothing tune from the act as they bring forward something that al are bound to find familiar and one that enables them to bring forward the Soul end of their music to show just how they are able to transform a tune that all know by giving it a spin that suits the direction of their music and what they had brought with the two other album from 1970. **Four Stars** 2.“Santa Claus Is Coming To Town” As things move on we are brought to a track ...

Beyonce's Fierce!

Advantages: Songs , Voice
Disadvantages: None!

Recently , I was sorting out my CD collection (putting CDs back into their correct cases etc), when I realised that I had a lot of CDs in my collection which I hadn't already reviewed , and so thought I'd share my reviews on them. Until this year , although Beyonce has always been a 'big star' , I had never really taken much notice of her. Although , this year , releasing some of the best songs of the year , I realised what a good artist Beyonce ...
...'Halo' , I just had to buy her album. I Am ...Sasha Fierce is the the third studio album from Beyonce released in the United Kingdom on November 17th 2008. The album comes under the 'RnB' and Pop genres. The album has twelve tracks on it , which are split down onto two different CDs.
