The cha-cha might be coming back this year because of this slow jam. Maybe. Maybe not.
But who knows right? It’s summertime ladies & gents, and there’s nothing better in the world than to go back into our collections for some great memorable slow classics. Like this one.
Welcome back to another selection into our popular slow jam countdown…
This is, without a doubt, one of the more memorable ballads of the 80’s. And still is today. Sultry love crooner Freddie Jackson broke ground on a track so delicious, it may still be one of the all time greatest, requested R&B slow jams for modern radio & wedding receptions.
The Top 100 R&B Slow Jams is gonna rock the block. We already are….Literally.
Coming in as our #74 cut comes the playa now turned successful actor, L.L. Cool J. His tenure in music is so gracious, that we do not need to break it all down for this article.
This is without a Question needed. No Sir…No Madam. This belongs here.
Drift with us back to a beautiful spring season of the year 1993-1994 to when hit R&B group, Mint Condition simply released a ballad so precious, it still rings every door bell after all these years in playback. And it comes as another requested addition to the series of slow jams according to Charles (our staff writer)…
You can take this one STRAIGHT to the bank.
The team you now know of takes our music very seriously. As you can see…
The slow jam you are about to hear still sounds like something that should be announced as a new release for 2010. Too cool & too straight from the hip. That’s why we bring you R&B slow jam #76 – Ruff Endz.
How beautiful our R&B slow jams was…
…when Athena, Lavon & Tabitha of new born group Kut Klose came around, they showed everyone how big Keith Sweat was. How bright & appealing his knack for finding soulful groups radiated. How passionate he wanted to express his production skills….it transmitted throughout all of our music collections. From Silk right down to these fine ladies.
The Top 100 R&B Slow Jams Returns…
While Toni Braxton is currently enjoying a run at the top of the charts on Billboard for her latest project, “Pulse”, T.U.M.S. took a step back to 1992 & her debut album that spawned a very romantic & meaningful ballad to all listeners everywhere entitled, “Love Shoulda Brought You Home”…
…Grab someone to hold…whether you love them or not.
Because we want you to actually feel that way when we present the next classic on Memorial Day. Hold Them.
Does a slow jam has to be a ssslllooow jam? Or can it be also a ‘cha-cha’? May you be the judge of this next induction to our widely received list of ballads.
Lalah Hathaway took off directly from where her Father, Donny, left us. A heiress of good fortune of music and talent, Lalah blessed us with a classic from 1990 so endearing, we couldn’t wait any longer with the decision to publish our very next #80 selection. The moving and reflecting, “Baby Don’t Cry”. You can find this treasure off her self titled LP, ‘Lalah Hathaway’ readers.
It’s right around nighttime…and we get another request from our contributing writer, George Strand:
…”I like what we got going here”….
…”When it came time to be truly thoughtful, sexy & romantic without getting too sensual, nor vulgar, some of our best slow songs carried real meaning and lasted a lifetime. Special sessions of intoxicating words of advice. Magnificent penmanship to poetry. I had to go back into my own personal collections and find something by example.
