CD Reviews

Never stop

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I've been a Heavies fan since 1989, and I was really excited about a new album. But it is not as good as brother sister or shelter. And I miss N'Dea as the vocalist, because this singer is not as strong a singer. Criticisms aside, this is still a decent CD and there are a few great tracks, including What do you take me for featuring the classic Heavies vibe and N'Dea. Bling Bling is the most sucessful hip hop track by the Heavies since Heavy Rhyme Experience and the Sometimes remix with Q-Tip. Don't call me foolish, we won't stop and music are also decent. But don't miss BNH outstanding instrumentation, which is why I listen them anyway, the always put the funk back in it. But over this album I reccomend you check out earlier works...or the Trunk Funk Classics or other BNH Greatest Hits album, their self titled debut or Brother Sister (still my favorite after 10 years)"
BNH is back?

"After listening about 5 times to the new album of BNH I still can't cover my frustration. After 7 years of silence everyone expected some changes in a band, but the way they moved in is very disappointing. This is not a coming-back album. The acoustic instruments, the jazzy vibes, the always exciting tunes are completely gone. What remains instead is undistinguished R'n'B music. It is simply BORING. Not a one star music, but still 4 stars weaker than previous BNH albums..."
A Great Group Slums It

"I really wish I could have given this cd more stars because I love these guys. "Shelter" is one of my all-time favourite albums, not to mention all of the other offerings that the Heavies have given the public are really fantastic. But this cd feels forced, like they wanted to try and please the younger hip-hop crowd. The problem is, a lot of hip-hop nowadays does not require much talent to create and when the Heavies does it, it's like hearing Whitney Houston (in her prime) sing Jingle Bells. There are a few songs that still have a bit of that Heavies magic, though, especially the track "Rise." However, they have never faltered when it comes to their choice of guest vocalists. Sy Smith, N'Dea Davenport and Gina Loring are excellent. (Let us not forget Heavies band member Jan Kincaid, who always has a warm, sweet voice.)

Of course, sometimes groups need to try different things from time to time. Hopefully the Heavies got this out of their system."
