I'm a sucker for solid 90's R&B. While I enjoy the obvious favorites by Erykah Badu, and D'Angelo, a lot of R&B sounds a little dated and not quite as good as I once thought. However, I would never put TLC CrazySexyCool (that album still sounds modern to this day--a classic) or Zhane Pronounced Jah-Nay albums in the "dated" category. I've been pulling out Zhane's Pronounced Jah-Nay album a lot recently, and it holds up extremely well. Their first, and best, of their two released albums, Zhane's debut contains their one obvious hit "Hey Mr. DJ" but there are so many other solid tracks to dig. Case in point: "This Song Is For You". This track contains a solid beat, nice echoey guitars, floating keyboards, and the melting vocals from the lovely ladies.
"Sending My Love" is another one of my favorite jams off of Zhane's classic. The feeling is similar to "This Song Is For You". A nice jam.
And of course, concluding with their big hit, "Hey Mr. DJ". Always a track to throw on while having a classic 90's R&B party. (Follow it up with Mary J.'s "Real Love")
