i'm liking track 10 - always be my baby, and all the tracks behind it. the other more uptempo tracks are good too 'when ur lovin' me', etc. pretty awesome record nowadays. i like how he kept some of his old sounds, while experimenting with new C:
SonofSoul: Blasphemy!!!! You think dru hill is better than BIIM...unreal. I hate you lol.
R&B Guru: Bah, now you're putting words in my mouth. I think Boyz II Men has overall the better tracks, but if I had to listen to every track on an album, I think Dru Hill's first two albums beat any Boyz album. Which album do you think is better than Dru Hill's debut?
SonofSoul: Evolution is better. II is better. NMSW is better. 2nd release of CHH is better. Hands down.
R&B Guru: Well, by my definition... Dru Hill's debut's got:
Tell Me
Satisfied
April Showers
All Alone
Never Make A Promise
So Special
In My Bed
Love Train
Share My World
5 Steps
And Boyz II Men's Evolution has:
Doin' Just Fine
Never
4 Seasons Of Loneliness
Girl In The Life Magazine
A Song For Mama
Can You Stand The Rain
Can't Let Her Go
Human II (Don't Turn Your Back On Me)
Dear God
Which gives Dru Hill the win, 10-9. Evolution is probably the closest match to Dru Hill's debut, and both are rockin. Really, it's like arguing if you'd rather have a million dollars in gold, or a million dollars in silver. In the end, you've still got a million dollars (but Dru Hill's debut is still better).
SonofSoul: You can not judge it track by track like that, it just doesnt make sense. The quality of an album is not determined by the quantity of "good tracks". Doin' Just Fine is better than at least half the songs on Dru Hill. You sayin that doesn't matter?
R&B Guru: Like I said, Boyz II Men has the better songs, but when it comes to a full album of quality, Dru Hill wins :). If I was to just make a mix, I'd pull all of Boyz II Men first, but if I had to listen to an album in the car, I'd take one of Dru Hill's first two.
SonofSoul: well here's the $100,000 question. Which is the better album overall? When you answer that question, do you call Dru Hill's better because it has "more good tracks" (which i don't agree w/ btw)?
R&B Guru: Now it's time for the voters to decide. Which quartet does it better? Are you for Boyz II Men or Dru Hill? To help you make your decision, check out the following two videos showcasing the guys talents.
