Sorry, I like Jagged Edge, but Sony Records needs to be smacked for this sorry azz mini collection disc..Jagged Edge Deserves a MUCH BETTER compilation, and SONY funked this up BIG TIME!

There you have it, and you gotta wonder why they couldn't release
a collection like THIS! I Think they're smoking something bad @ Sony,
and they did the same thing to Ginuwine, which I'm about to review!
In closing, fans should make better collections at home!
Rating..I wanted to give 2 stars, but since it's the holiday season,
3 stars will have to do....NEXT!!!!
Peace, SD

Nothing but Hits from a group that could have been great, November 23, 2006
There was a time when I thought Jagged Edge could be one of the better groups in R&B after their successful first two albums. Sadly after the release of Jagged Little Thrill the group began to go down hill and all of their music began to sound the same. The CD contains all o the groups biggest and may be a sign that the label is getting ready to drop the group. The Hits does contain Jagged Edge's biggest hits from 1997 through 2005, but it's very brief at only 11 cuts and leaves out a handful of singles that did chart (four of which went Top 40 R&B) throughout the same span of time. Most of the group's albums -- 1997's A Jagged Era and 2001's Jagged Little Thrill especially -- have more to offer than just their singles, so this compilation will only satisfy those who are set on obtaining the outright smashes (such as "Let's Get Married," "Walked Outta Heaven," "He Can't Love U," and "Where the Party At") and nothing else. It has to annoy the group that this disc was released only six months after their self-titled fifth album, and that the compilers didn't even consider some of the best album cuts ("Wednesday Lover" "Slow Motion", True Man and "Watch You"," just to name a few. Another compliant with the CD is the lack of rare & unreleased material the disc could have included ("All Out Of Love"," On My Way" and "Hope You're Happy" are all classics). Regardless, The Hits is a decent introduction to a group that made up for its lack of jaw-dropping greatness with consistently good output.

Good and bad collection of hits, February 20, 2007
For starters this is a good album, but I'll get to the bad first. With only 11 songs and 44 minuts of their songs, they definitely could have included 5-7 more songs on here. As a fan mostly of rap music (I have around 650 rap CD's and only 2 dozen or so R&B ones) but the 4 man group from North Carolina, Jagged Edge, is one of my favorite R&B groups so I had to check this out. With 5 albums under their belt when this was released, 2 album only have 1 songs on here and 1 album has none, and 2 other songs are off the "So-So Def Remix" album. Now for the good part, of the 11 songs, 1 is a classic, 6 are real good, 3 are ok and 1 I skip over. They did get most of their better sogns on here but a few more defintely should be here as well. Guests are on 4 sogns (1 song JE only does the hook). Production is mostly by Jermaine Dupri & Bryan Cox (7 songs), JE does 2 and Chad elliott and Pitch Black each do 1. If you have their 1st 2 albums I'd skip this since they're the majority of the songs on here.
#1 - 7.5
#2- 8 .5
#3 - 9
#4 - 7
#5 - 8.5 (f/ Jermaine Dupri, da Brat, Lil Bow Wow, ROC, Tigah -- upbeat track)
#6 - 9
#7 - 9
#8 - 9
#9 -10 (CLASSIC remix f/ Rev. Run -- great upbeat track)
#10 - 6.5 (f/ Jermaine Dupri)
#11 - 5 (f/ john Legend)
