Ultimate R&B The Love Collection 2010
3.5/5
If you're the type of person whose nose screws up when you hear the words love collection in an album title, you can rest easy knowing this album isn't filled with soppy love songs.
If you're an R&B fan, you'll enjoy it. The thing I
like most about R&B music is that its so-called love songs aren't too lovey-dovey, they're just good music.
This R&B version of a love songs album includes Lovegame by Lady Gaga, Whatever You Like by T.I, Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie and Letoya's She Aint Got.
A good choice, I think.
However, there are two songs that I'm definitely not a fan of - Michael Jackson's Ben (Akon Remix) and the obvious R&B love song Back at One, by Brian McKnight.
Ultimate R&B The Love Collection 2010 has a good collection of songs - most of which have my approval - so this two-disc album makes for good listening.
Favourite track -Imma Star by Jeremiah. Guilty pleasure -She Aint Got by Letoya.
