Two Words, One Answer.
Jagged Edge
 Baby Makin' Project $13.98 As most of my reviews, I did not purchase this cd off of Amazon. But, I will give my opinion of this cd. I actually really enjoyed this cd and I would suggest to it anyone who likes Jagged Edge and for anyone who likes slow jams. YMMV. NEOSOUL06  Jagged Edge $9.95 This courtroom drama was very well acted by Glend Close and Jeff Bridges,and well directed by Richard Marquand. Though very well plotted by Eszterhas, the ending was completely unbelievable. SPOILER: The suspect, who was actually the murderer, wrote letters on a typewriter that had a defective t key--the t was slightly higher than all the other letters and stood out clearly. He kept the typewriter in his house. A police search would have uncovered the typewriter, and the typewriter would have been linked to the murderer's letters. Dumb. No murderer with Bridge's intelligence would have written those letters on his own machine--he would have known that it could have been linked to him. Instead, he would have used one from the public library or from a display model in a store that sells typewriters. Then no one would have been able to trace the letters to him. Nonetheless, up until the above blunder, the story is very suspenseful and absorbing and is worth watching. It is much better than "Eye for an Eye" which has a similar theme and makes a similar unbelievable ending mistake.  Jagged Little Thrill $18.98 This was a definite improvement on JE's last album. Heartbreak was not as good as hoped. The biggest thing that helped this album is the outbreak hit "Where The Party At?" which was the party anthem of the year, and also helped them sell records tremendously. Though the album is not perfect it is alot better than Heartbreak. I think the thing that helped this album the most was the fact that the majority of it was produced by a young & still fresh full of beats Mr. Bryan Michael Cox. That helped alot. Even though after Where the Party At there was no other big singles that song alone can sell records. Even though it got old real fast. But the difference with this album from the last was that the album tracks (not the singles) made the album good. "Goodbye" was a phenominal song about having to say goodbye to a loved one, even though it was a single it hardly even charted. But in my opinion this album revolves around the track "Best Man", which if you have ever had a girl cheat on you with a friend of yours, will surely cause some emotions to show. Another one of the standout tracks "Driving Me To Drink" is another mid tempo banger from JE. You can probably guess what its about. Overall this album again will sell alot, only difference this time is that it is actually worth buying. JE improved but, they can still do alot better. Grade: B- |
