Editorial Reviews

About the Artist
At a time when the music marketplace is flooded with carbon copy rappers rhyming over recycled hip-hop beats, a new generation of talent is poised on the cusp of the come-up. Not since the Jackson 5 has the world witnessed a band of musical brothers whose high energy and artistic ability epitomize the phrase blood is thicker than water. That is, until this quartet of Miami-bred kinfolk appeared. Pleasure, Slick 'Em, Baby Blue, and Spectacular comprise the hip-hop ensemble known as Pretty Ricky, and they have emerged with a unique flair, coupled with the discipline and tenacity that breeds chart-topping success.

5.0 out of 5 stars At First, July 28, 2005
When i had first heard of Pretty Ricky. I was like i didnt even want to be bothered. Cause i just formed an opinion based on no facts at all. But i finally decided i should give the CD a go and so i bought. I've listened to it once since i got it. But my impression of this CD is that its "something fierce" and there is no song on the CD that i dont like. I didnt skip past any song on the CD from beginning til the end. I was loving everything about it. A few of my personal favs in order at all:

1. Grind With Me - obviously it gets played a lot
2. Chevy - the beat is what's all about
3. Can't Live Without You - i just like what the song says
4. Juicy - i wont go there, but i love this one also
5. Never Let You Go
6. Grill 'Em - PR bring it on this one

Just about all the other songs are on point and i love them as well. So this is coming from someone that didnt like PR at first. But i gave it a chance and the verdict is very well done.

5.0 out of 5 stars No, It Ain't Gonna Be No Jodeci, July 29, 2006
By 06 "soadgirl88" (Omaha, NE USA) - See all my reviews
Sorry, if you're looking for Jodeci or Keith Sweat or freaking ugly a** John Legend, don't even try to act disappointed because you knew before you bought or listened the CD that these guys wouldn't compare. They have a style of their own...

Anyways, I give the CD 5 stars just because I don't have to skip not one song on the CD. It it great music to ride around to or have in the background when I am cleaning or studying. It was given to me as a gift because I was afraid to spend my own money on it, but now that I have it I find myself wanting to give it as gifts to all my homegirls. And when they come out with that hot sophmore release, your girl will be buying 2 copies...I do not feel that Pretty Ricky are degrading women, I feel that they're saying some freaky stuff I wish my man would say to me sometimes, not matter how juvenile or freaky the content might be.

For the people that thing Pretty Ricky sing about underage or younger girls, read & listen to their lyrics carefully. They're talking about hooking older women...Hence, "Ima show you how Stella Got Her Groove Back". Stella is an older women who got back in swing with a younger man...Duh...

It is entertainment and that needs to be considered. I do not think that Pretty Ricky were aiming for a Grammy. It's just fun, freaky music for us young folks (not to young-content explicit) to groove to...

And about the Jodeci thing...Let us not forget that Jodeci had some nasty hits too *cough*"Freekin You"*cough*
