5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent choice of old school songs, July 18, 2000

Although I am more of an old school ballad fan, Ice Cube and company picked an excellent selection of old school songs for the "Old School: Next Friday Soundtrack." This CD has an array of old school funk jams on it. I have this movie on DVD and I'm glad that I was able to get all the old school songs on one CD instead of having to buy all the different greatest hits compilations or the separate CDs of each of these artists. My personal favorites on this CD are Con Funk Shun's "Chase Me", Gap Band's "You Dropped The Bomb On Me", Mtume's "Juicy Fruit", Tyrone Davis' "In The Mood", and Faze-O's "Riding High". Also, for any hip hop fans you get Whodini's "Friends" which is definitely a hip hop classic. Owning this CD is a must for an old school music fan like me, especially if you don't have these songs in your CD collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kicking it with Old School, June 13, 2000

By A Customer

I really liked the Next Friday album, because it reminds me where some of our music orginated. Old School music has rhythm and beat that always want to make you dance. No matter how young or how old you may be, the music on this album is sure to bring you back some good memories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect..... (4 Stars), October 24, 2004

Like the previous reviewer said, this album is pretty much perfect until you get to track 10, the "Theme From The Jefferons". While classic TV themes don't come much better than that and I DO love the theme, it feels so out of place on this album. When you're zoning out to all of these classic tracks, track 10 seems to jerk you right out of your daydream. Other than that, there's nothing bad about this album. I rated it lower than 5 because I was never a big fan of "Tell Me Something Good" by Rufus & Chaka Khan, "You Sexy Thing" by Hot Chocolate, or "Fame" by David Bowie. They're good songs, but I'm not crazy about them. But that's just my opinion. Other people will tell you that they are classic songs, and they are probably right, but I just don't feel them. Aside from those songs though, the rest are timeless classics. If you don't have these songs in your collection by now (which you should), then go get this album.

Standout Tracks: Riding High, Bad Luck, Chase Me, In The Mood (My Favorite), Funky Worm, and Juicy Fruit
