Brown, a former lead vocalist with New Edition (he was replaced by Johnny Gill, but both men participate in most NE reunions) has an appealing, if somewhat grainy, voice. It's a good match for the hip-hop beats that underpin some of the best songs here, especially \"My Prerogative,\" which at the time sounded like an anthem. His ability to deftly merge R\u0026amp;B's upscale and hip-hop street esthetic (both Teddy Riley and Babyface produce tracks on this CD) changed the role of the rake hero. Sadly, this was Brown's lone significant musical moment as a solo artist. Except for marrying Whitney Houston, his life since has become a skein of self-destructive activities. --Martin Johnson, ISBN13: B000002PHV ISBN10: B000002PHV Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109280239779,"sku":"B10.26.12 F_06-04-25_H0000GNK","price":17.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/91KZyfMc6XL.jpg?v=1754569481"},{"product_id":"young-gifted-badd-remixes","title":"Young Gifted \u0026 Badd-Remixes","description":"\u003cp\u003e, ISBN13: B000002L0Z ISBN10: B000002L0Z Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109337976995,"sku":"B10.26.12 F_06-04-25_H0000GNA","price":18.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/411MD44ZC3L.jpg?v=1754570125"},{"product_id":"people-make-the-world-go-round","title":"People Make the World Go Round","description":"\u003cp\u003e, ISBN13: B000001AB5 ISBN10: B000001AB5 Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109502242979,"sku":"B10.28.1 F_03-25-25_UBD_H00009TE","price":17.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/21Y9J96H1JL.jpg?v=1754572172"}],"url":"https:\/\/usedbookdepot.com\/collections\/new-jack.oembed","provider":"Used Book Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
