On this compilation CD the stars are aplenty. With Macy Gray lacing the moody "We've Got Enough" with more urgency than she managed on The Id, Nelly Furtado's off-kilter "Legend," and Erykah Badu doing her cloying jazz routine on the somewhat precious "Today," some of the brightest lights in neo soul give it their all. Yet while this hodgepodge of remixes, album cuts, and new material might manifest the might of marquee power, it's the new jacks who come close to stealing the spotlight. Witness Jack Herrera's tangy soul stylings on the sexy "High Off You" or the creamy seduction of "Don't You Forget It" by Glenn Lewis, two more examples of the silky grooves this CD offers. --Amy Linden

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars One of the best compilations I've heard in awhile........2006-01-07

If you enjoy the likes of Erykah Badu, Jill Scott and India Arie please do yourself a favor and get this album. I listen to this album all the way through, no skipping. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars Best in a Long Time.......2004-08-11

This is one of the greatest NEO-SOUL compiliation efforts!!! It would be great if Heinie put out a sophmore effort.

4 out of 5 stars Good CD, though uneven.......2002-12-15

I recommend this CD solely on the strength of 6 tracks. Tracks 1,2,3,4,5, and 12, make this album worth every penny. Maybe that's why some of these are the sample songs? These are soulful grooves that are engaging and unique. Though other tracks are pretty [weak], these 6 made the album one of my recent favs. ...

4 out of 5 stars jonas421.......2002-04-05

Great album. The heavy hitters (Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, Macy Gray, and Nelly Furtado) drop some great tracks. The album also features some great up and comers. The still searching remix by Damian Marley, Stephen Marley, and Yami Bolo is really strong. Great album, I recommend it to any R&B/Soul fan.

5 out of 5 stars The ROOTS, AMEL LARRIEUX, JILL SCOTT, ERYKAH BADU.........2002-03-05

....who else can you ask for! haha.. i love the ROOTS, AMEL, BADU < SCOTT & they are all on this melodic cd..very mellow.. if you like the neo-soul...you'll enjoy this. Glen Lewis also has a track on this, "TODAY" (badu) you have to get this...
