Synopsis

Amazon.com
After Finally, Teddy Riley's third album with Blackstreet, failed to click with the group's once-vast audience, the modern-soul mastermind found the time right to hook up again with Aaron and Damien Hall. Together in the early '90s, the trio gave Riley his first taste of stardom following his inspired combination of R&B and hip-hop in the hybrid sound of new jack swing. Unfortunately, III isn't always the surefooted comeback fans hoped for. While uptempo tracks such as "Dancin'" successfully combine layered harmonies and smooth, up-to-date beats, the disc's many ballads find the act floundering. Indeed, the worst of them recall Aaron Hall's smarmy solo work. But then, Riley himself has always seemed more at home stoking dance-floor fires than kindling the flames of romance. --Rickey Wright

CD Reviews

"III" times is a charm!
Dan Perlberger | North Carolina, U.S.A. | 01/26/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

""Guy III" has a song for everybody. It is filled to the rim with a blend of soul and funk which will blow your mind! Whether it be a club rump shaker like "Do It" or a funk masterpiece like "Teddy's Jam III" or a power ballad like "Why you wanna keep me from my baby", or even a latin soul cut like "Don't U Miss Me", this album will keep you pleased from start to finish. Teddy Riley brings the beats, Aaron and Damian Hall bring the soulful voices, and Guy, united at last, serves up an album for the ages."

"Welcome back the new and the improved Guy for the year 2000.Aaron Hall and Damion reunite with Teddy for the first time in years to produce the freshest r&b flava for the future that we can get down too.With Blackstreets latest album not a hit at least Teddy will make it big on this one.Every song is a hit on this one well worth your money so go out and buy this masterpiece."
