"We sellin' like Bon Jovi," Ronnie DeVoe drawls on BBD's "Scandalous." This is typical pop hype, but Bell Biv DeVoe should be happy their lyrics weren't screened by fact checkers. BBD (Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and DeVoe) hasn't clocked platinum units since their 1990 debut, Poison. Back then the trio, an offshoot of '80s superstar boy group New Edition, laced smooth harmonies to rugged beats and misogynist lyrics, making their first one of the best (and most widely imitated) R&B records of the era. After the moderately successful '93 follow-up, Hootie Mack, Bell Biv DeVoe are back, trying to appeal to an audience that's now saturated with thugged-out Romeos and has no idea how groundbreaking the trio was. Sadly, BBD does their legacy little good with this lackluster effort. Now in their 30s, Bell, Biv, and DeVoe still think the lady is a tramp, but while they once spit out their sex-you-ups with a bad-boy bite, new cuts like the thumping "Dance B----" just sound bitter. The vibe is better when the trio lets the love flow, as on the silky "I Ain't Going Nowhere," which proves BBD can still make the females swoon. --Amy Linden

I don't know what BBD was thinking. Maybe they needed some extra money or whatever. This CD seems like it was put together sloppily. The beats are wack and their lyrics are even wacker. Upon purchasing it, I thought I would hear some solid tracks from an R&B group. Well, I was wrong. But, like on every CD, there seems to be 1 or 2 tracks that are worth listening to. And those 2 tracks are: the mid-tempo ballad "I Ain't Going Nowhere" and "In My Crib". The latter track was produced by Brandon and Brian from Jagged Edge and features Ralph Tresvant on guest vocals. So please, if you want to waste your money on a comeback album that should have been properly pre-paired, be my guest and buy this album. But if you want some good music from a male R&B group, check out Jagged Edge's album along with the new one from Ruff Endz.
APPEALING!.......2002-06-30
