The Best R&B Album In The World... Ever!

undefined

R&B - whether dance-pop, rap or soul infused, has produced some of the biggest hits of all time, and this 3CD, 60-track collection presents simply the best of the biggest hits featuring the legends of the genre. Kicking off with the incredible voice of Mary J. Blige and her anthem ‘Family Affair’, and continuing with the record breaking Destiny’s Child with ‘Bootylicious', Eve and Gwen Stefani’s ‘Let Me Blow Ya Mind' and Jennifer Lopez’s salute to her roots with ‘Jenny From The Block’. Some of the most successful R&B pop hits of all time are represented by Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera, The Pussycat Dolls, Usher and TLC’s era-defining ’No Scrubs' - alongside stunning ballads from Alicia Keys, Fergie, Timbaland ft. OneRepublic and the still-incredible take on ‘Killing Me Softly’ by The Fugees, while CD1 still finds room for crossover metars P!nk, The Black Eyed Peas, Nicki Minaj and the incomparable Whitney Houston. Justin Timberlake’s epic ‘What Goes Around… Comes Around’ gives way to huge R&B/Rap hits on Disc 2 with Blackstreet & Dr Dre’s ’No Diggity’, Warren G’s ‘Regulate’, Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince’s laid back ’Summertime’ and the track that gave LL Cool J his first #1 ‘I Need Love’. R&B, Rap & Dance-Pop fused in the ‘90s to create the blockbuster hits featured here from Salt N Pepa, Ini Kamoze and the floor-filling ‘It’s Like That’ by Run DMC ft. Jason Nevins. Paying tribute to the old skool R&B of the late ‘80s Soul II Soul, Bobby Brown, Jody Watley and Womack & Womack all feature with timeless tracks. The final disc is all about the R&B anthems that have remained essential tracks at radio - ‘Waterfalls’ by TLC, ‘Breathe Again’ by Toni Braxton, ’Shackles (Praise You)’ by Mary Mary and Jennifer Hudson’s smash hit ’Spotlight’. Some of the smoothest contemporary classics are also present including the sublime ‘By Your Side’ from Sade, John Legend’s ‘Ordinary People’ and Mario’s #1 ‘Let Me Love You’. To round things up we’ve made sure to include some of the biggest hook-laden and feel-good chart hits of the 2000’s from Nelly Furtado, Kelis, Mya, Sisqo and Nelly’s ‘Hot In Herre’.
