5.0 out of 5 stars I am very pleased!!!, December 10, 2002

This review is from: I Care 4 U (with Bonus DVD) (Audio CD)

I am extremely satisfied with Aaliyah's posthumous album. First of all, the CD art, color scheme, and booklet are just beautiful. There are a few gliches in the booklet however. For example, it says in the booklet "Rock Da Boat" not "Rock The Boat" for the DVD listing. Also, notable hits are neglected from the audio part of the album such as: "If Your Girl Only Knew," "Hot Like Fire (Remix)," and "Rock The Boat." The quality of the DVD and the wonderful songs more than make up for these minor errors. I love the unreleased tracks on the album, and I am thrilled that they are on there. Now, the DVD is the best feature! It contains more videos and extras than the Aaliyah (Limited Edition Album) from 2001! The DVD contains the hard-to-find "Got To Give It Up (Remix)" video, and a good number of other videos, as well as a wonderful behind the scenes and Japanamation commercial for her last album. I will give you a track-to-track critique of the album. ...P>CRITIQUE OF TRACKS

1. Back & Forth (feat. R. Kelly & Mr. Lee): Aaliyah's very first single released back in 1994. Excellent old school song from her first album "Age Ain't Nothing But A Number!"

2. Are You That Somebody (feat. Timbaland & Playa): Aaliyah's single from the "Dr. Dolittle" Soundtrack is one of her most popular songs.

3. One In A Million (feat. Missy Elliott): This classic song is the second single from Aaliyah's sophomore album "One In A Million."

4. I Care 4 U: The last single released from Aaliyah's third album "Aaliyah." This beautiful and moving song was released after her unfortunate death in August 2001. An interesting note about this song is that it was recorded back in 1996, but could not be put on "One In A Million."

5. More Than A Woman: This edgy song is the third single from "Aaliyah."

6. Don't Know What To Tell Ya: This is one of the unreleased songs on "I Care 4 U." It is a great song!! It has great beats and lyrics, and is a typical song of Aaliyah.

7. Try Again: Everyone knows this song!! This song is from the "Romeo Must Die" soundtrack and went to number one just on airplay alone.

8. All I Need: Another unreleased track, but I am not feeling this song too much. It is a little boring.

9. Miss You: This beautiful song is the first single from "I Care 4 U." The video for this song features many artists paying tribute to Aaliyah.

10. Don't Worry: A good unreleased track with great vocals and good beats.

11. Come Over (feat. Tank): A very good unreleased track featuring Tank! I'm not a big fan of Tank, but he sings in the chorus and ad-libs towards the end. Aaliyah sings great on this song!

12. Erica Kane: A very catchy unreleased track with good vocals and good beats, though some may find it annoying.

13. At Your Best (You Are Love): Aaliyah's classic remake of the Isley brothers' hit. This extremely beautiful song is the third single from "Age Ain't Nothing But A Number."

14. Got To Give It Up (Remix): This remix of the third single from "One In A Million" is the version on the "Got To Give It Up" video featured on "I Care 4 U." It is somewhat catchy and weird, but I like it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Complete, But Still Awesome, January 28, 2003

By 

Aaron (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: I Care 4 U (with Bonus DVD) (Audio CD)

Aaliyah was a very talented artist. With her sweet voice and unique R&B jams, she was definitely at the top of her game. This collection captures the essence of her and her abilities nicely, but it is not complete. Still the tracks that are provided are for the most part fantastic. Included are 5 top 10 hits and 8 top 40 hits from Aaliyah's career spanning the last 9 years:

1. Back and Forth: (5/5) This track kicks butt. One of the best R&B jams of the 90's, it was Aaliyah's breakthrough and arguably best song. Hit #5 on the pop charts.

2. Are You That Somebody: (5/5) The best R&B single to come out of 1998 hands down. Aaliyah and Timbaland out did themselves. Unique beat. Very cool. Hit #4 on pop charts.

3. One In A Million: (4/5) This is a slower song, but still cool. An Aaliyah must-have. This one hit #25.

4. I Care 4 U: (5/5) I love this song. Another slow jam, but she sings it beautifully and musically, it's outstanding. Kudos to Missy Elliot. Went to #13 on pop charts.

5. More Than A Woman: (4.5/5) This one will have you jamming. Catchy chorus, good backround music, great vocals. Hit #25 also.

6. Don't Know What To Tell Ya: (5/5) The best of the unreleased material, this song needs to be a single. It's catchy as hell and has potential to be a huge hit.

7. Try Again: (5/5) Aaliyah's biggest hit. Went to #1 in the summer of 2000. Again, she and Timbaland kicked on this one. Awesome song. Gotta love the intro.

8. All I Need: (3/5) This is ok. Pales in comparison to other tracks.

9. I Miss You: (4/5) Aaliyah's latest hit. Sweet, sensual, yet innocent. Nice vocals. Is presently at #10 on the pop charts.

10. Don't Worry: (3/5) Ditto to track #8.

11. Come Over: (3/5) Yet again, pleasent, but still nothing to get too overexcited.

12. Erica Kane: (5/5) Very cool song. Great beat and great singing.

13. At Your Best: (4.5/5) The sweet remake of the Isley Brother's original hit. This really shows off Aaliyah's sweet and innocent side. It hit #6 on the pop charts.

14. Got To Give It Up: (4/5) Great dance jam. Not as good as Back and Forth, Try Again, and Are You That Somebody, but still worth the inclusion.

So why 4 stars? Well, a handful of Aaliyah hits were unfairly left off. Most notably, the top 10 hit single "The One I Gave My Heart To" along with top 20 hits "If Your Girl Only Knew" and the fabulous "Rock the Boat." Even the minor hits such as "We Need A Resoltution", "4 Page Letter," and definitely "Age Ain't Nothing But A Number" are worthy enough. They're great songs. Oh, well. I guess we can hope for a complete "Greatest Hits" in the future. But for now, this is definitely sufficent. Ashanti, Tweet and the others have nothing on Aaliyah. She's missed.

5.0 out of 5 stars EVERYTHING AN AALIYAH FAN WOULD WANT!!!, December 20, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: I Care 4 U (with Bonus DVD) (Audio CD)

Aaliyah,I care 4 U is def. the best album ive heard all year. and will probally be the best throughout 2003.The DVD is also great. This is everything an aaliyah fan could ask for. This CD is amazing,the music the pictures the packaging. Simply beautiful. This album is already a HUGE hit. Number 3 album in the country (debut) selling over 280,000 albums in her first week,and is the number 1 hiphop and r&b album according to soundscan. There are 7 greatest hits and im sure you guys know them all. SO im gonna review the 6 AMAZING new songs and remix.
1.Dont know what to tell ya- AMAZING! a wicked track. shouldve been on"aaliyah) this will most likely be the second single,a great beat. 10/10 stars.
2.All i need- My personal favorite. an amazng midtempo song has a classy accoustic feel. Puts me in a zone.she sounds very smooth here. 10./10
3.Miss you-IM sure you have heard this song,the first single to this album. amazing! and is a hit single. A beautful ballad. and she sounds amazing on here. and the birds in the backround really complete the song. 10/10
4.Dont worry- Another great song. upbeat and a very dancable track.9/10
5.come over(feat tank)-Another great accoustic ballad. this song will def. grow on you. its really good,another group "changing faces" also did it,but alot of people perfer Liyahs version. This song is amazing. Aaliyahs good freind and labelmate tank sings backround here and does some adlibs. 9/10
6.Erica kane- WOW! can i say second fav. song. OMG this is too hot this song.this would be a hit single. the song has a good message. And ofcourse LiLi sounds explosive. this song really makes you think 10/10

7. got to give it up (remix)- a great new remix. brand new beat,they changed her voice a lil added her talking. good remix. 8/10

i wanna know,why didnt these songs make the last album!?!?
The dvd is great also. Ofcourse there are some great hits missing but im sure universal will release a complete greatest hits album has a final release of aaliyah. :(
this talented artist is missed soo much! She has the voice of an angel.
I will suggest this CD to you,its amazing. Aaliyah can really touch ur heart.
