Free Music Notes for Happy People / U Saved Me
Free Music Review: One Of His Best
Hit: 5 Stars
WOW, I was amazed at how good this album turned out. I expect a lot from R Kelly since he is, in my opinion, the best singer of our time and arguable the best of all time. Yes I said it, the best of all time. I knew little about this album in the coming weeks that it was to be released. When I recieved the album, one week before it was to be released, I discovered that it was a double album and I got very happy since I was expecting a single CD album. The first album is called "Happy People" and the second is called "U Saved Me".
What I noticed about "Happy People" immediatly, was that this album is an album for "the steppers". Just think of songs such as the lead single, "Happy People" and "Step In The Name of Love Remix" off the Chocolate Factory. I would classify this album as a feel good album, since it has more uptempo and happy songs, with the exception of "Greatest Show On Earth", which a slower type song. R Kelly is simply magnificent on this album. Every track from start to finish is very good. Although all the songs are good, songs that really caught my attention are
"If"
"Steppin Into Heaven"
"Intro(Weatherman)"
"Red Carpet"
"Love Signals"
"Happy to name a few.
It is very hard to decide but my favorite song that has been on my mind for days is "If"
I believe that all the "ol school" R Kelly fans are going to be happy with this album too. I'm talking about those fans who really love his slow and heart felt songs. Right from the start of the second disc "U Saved Me", I got the vibe that this album was going to be an album be just that, more slow and heart felt songs. The second single off this "Happy People/U Saved Me" album was "U Saved Me", which is a very good song. At first, I didn't think much of the single, but it grew on me after I really listened to it. I believe this disc was very very good aswell. Just like "Happy People", this album is good from start to finish.
Songs that stuck out in my mind are (not in any particular order),
"U Saved Me"
"3 Way Phone Call"
"How Did U Manage"
"When I Talk About You"
"The Diary Of Me"
This album is a mix of what I would say, R Kelly's two singing styles. Some people like R Kelly's new style which is featured on songs such as "Happy People". And other fans enjoy R Kelly's deep songs which he lets it all out on. Whether you like both styles or hate one off his styles, you will love this album. Me, I like both his styles, so I loved this album. It is hard for me to find an R&B album that is good from start to finish. I would call this album an instint classic. Go Out and Buy 2 copies of the album and help support R Kelly. This is probably the best R&B album of the year.
Happy People / U Saved Me Poster
KELLY R. HAPPY PEOPLER. Kelly is arguably one of R&B's most productive minds in years and the Chicago native creates music at a pace that few artists in any genre could keep up with. "Happy People/U Saved Me" serves as Kelly's own personal "Best of Both Worlds"--highlighting both the singer's love for stepping (a Midwest-based dance craze) and need for salvation. "Happy People" is the more upbeat of the two discs with Kelly taking on the persona of the Weatherman, a DJ on the fictional LOVE radio station. The album's title track and lead single is a perfect introduction to its infectious sound. Similarly, the midtempo groove of "Red Carpet (Pause, Flash)" will have stepping experts and novices headed straight to the dance floor. While the recurring stepping theme quickly becomes repetitive, you can't help but groove all the way through.
Unfortunately, the same can't be said for "U Saved Me." The message-heavy disc sacrifices Kelly's raw talent for melodrama. Songs like "I Surrender" and "Prayer Changes," while expressing a sincere sentiment about believing in something greater than yourself, are a little overwhelming. That said, this disc's title track is a rousing musical tale of overcoming obstacles with the help of God--complete with a rising choir. In the end, "Happy People/U Saved Me," like most double albums, has both its highs and lows. --Rashaun Hall
