I'm taking a break from the hip-hop music for a minute, so I am switching gears and smoothing things out with some slow jam grooves. This compilation is a mixture of old school and nu-skool soul classics that I enjoy personally. Honestly, there are not many artists these days that actually make quality slow jams for some reason. Most of the young pop/soul artists make those "bubble gum" type tracks that are mainly targeted for the 13 to 17 year-old audience. I'm sorry, there isn't much that Ne-Yo and Omarion can tell me about love and relationships! I guess that's why I mostly stay in the Isley Brothers, Teddy Pendergrass & DeBarge era when it comes to slow jams. The 70's & 80's had some of the best music ever released, and that is why that era of music is constantly re-recorded and sampled so heavily. Soul artists like Dwele, Eric Roberson, Raheem DeVaughn, Jill Scott, Kindred Soul & Anthony Hamilton have dropped some nice cuts in the new millenium, but there still seems to be a definite shortage in my opinion. Maybe one day things will change, but until then SoundNexx will try to keep serving that soulful goodness from yester-year.....
