Because There Is No Other! Sep 28, 2009
This is the UK 1996 Recording by Blackground Records done in Snapper Edition Digi-pak style. This R&B album is one of the best; it's a one in a million experience from a one in a million artist! The Snapper Classics Edition replaces the standard jewel case for the digi-pak opens up with beautiful white and black lettering CD disc artwork and fold out flaps on each side with diverse photos on each flip. This music is timeless, classic and definitely masterful in sound. Aaliyah did this album with her new management featuring key players like Timbaland, Missy Elliott, and Jermaine Dupri to name a few. Song-writing including Diane Warren, Missy Elliott, and Rodney Jerkins to name a few. This was a phenomenal direction definitely a path for more street R&B hip-hop mixes for others to copy, imitate, or just embrace!
This album has a nice R&B/street style blend of smooth styles meshed with dark styles nicely portraying a mixture of themes relating to love and romance as well as the heartbreak that goes with it and how to feel strong and uplifted! Regardless of my moods I find this album to get me going. It is the type to fit any one particular feeling. Aaliyah's vocals are soft, soothing at times and emotionally "on fire" on others. The beauty in her style is the uniqueness of how she sings behind the music without being lost but complimenting the vibe --very R&B, and very addictive!
The songs flow nicely bringing positive sensations on tracks like "Everything's Gonna Be Alright", and "Never Givin' Up". One of my favorite songs would have to be "Choosey Lover (Old School/New School)" for the lyrical song writing, catchy beats, and emotions displayed. "Heartbroken" is also a nice track displaying how being taken for granted is not the way to go. She sounds so sincere and so profound as if she were experiencing it. Another favorite would have to be, "Never Comin' Back" as it shows strength despite adversity; truly empowering for sure! The last 2 songs definitely end it nicely bringing deep felt lyrics and singing on "The One I Gave My Heart To" and some hip-hop flair on "Came To Give Love (Outro)" with references of spreading love, getting the party people waving their hands and doing "the rodeo".
All the songs are excellent as there are no fillers to bore or make a person fall asleep. This has a romantic vibe easing to get the stress removed if you have or to feel at ease. The singing is soft yet powerful with no shouts, harshness to the ears, or annoying yells. She sounds like a sensational R&B artist like no other. The catchy synths, drums, and background production is most definitely a plus and to be recognized as spectacular too. New listeners get music that will never loose its power or effect; this is a phenomenal album worth the price!
This won't disappoint, get to hear music with emotional depth, class, R&B 100% and a passionate artist who gave it her all and went even further proving she is ONE IN A MILLION no matter how much time has passed. Aaliyah is here in spirit, soul, and energy; let's keep her memory strong, alive, and cherished!
 A PRINCESS INDEED Sep 28, 2009
I AM SURE WE ALL MISS AALIYAH. IT WAS JUST A TOTAL LOSS FOR ALL OF US WHEN SHE PASSED. BUT SHE HAD THE CREATIVITY , HER OWN STYLE AND HER OWN SOUND. NO ONE CAN BE LIKE HER. THIS CD IS GREAT.
Overall good service Jun 15, 2009
They had good service for the product. I wish they would have told me when it was shipped, but the product was in good condition and I would recommend them.
Every song is worth listening to. Oct 02, 2007
This is the first cd I have ever listened to straight through, and not wanted to skip a song or turn it off. The disc is well produced. Each track sort of takes you through a journey, that veers off to a fun party, or a reflective moment. But all in all, Aaliyah's voice just takes you in and brings you to a good place, while the cut throat beats, vibes and tempo does wonders.
