I swear I just downloaded The Gyrlz album yesterday. I had the cassette back in the day. It's All Because Of You and It's Over were my favorite cuts on that album.

EJ, I see you're in a NJS mood, huh? Well, I'm gonna pull out my baggy pants & 'Polka Dot' shirts - LOL. Is It Good To Ya still is on heavy rotation in my library - Pure Classic. Thanks.

Maaaaaa----aaannnn. High School al over again. Keith Sweat and Al B. Daaaaa-aaaag!!! Funny. People always said Al could not sing in comparison to others but I totally dug the synthetic stylings of the vocals on his early works. Anybody know what happened to the team of Al B and his cousin Kyle West?

The were to me a great team..Al's lyrics and Kyle's music. Everyone knows the Tevin Campbell material they produced together and The Gyrlz (I saw Monica In Brooklyn, NY) a year ago. STILL beautiful! The jump for me ws the tune "I've Waited
Too Long" by a singer named Cheyanne.....TOTAL CLUB BANGER!!!!

Thanks for the trip EJ!!!!!!

Thank you--I was looking for that Krush song from Mo' Money, and you had me jammin' Tara Kemp and Mc Lyte. I actually have that Jasmine Guy cd, and I wish she had kept making music.
