Like the characters who inhabit the world of author Terry McMillan's novel and the film based on it, many of the 15 R&B and hip-hop tracks assembled on this <I>Soundtrack</I> pulse with wistful longing, their seemingly calm veneers masking a host of tumultuous emotions. From the lazy finger snaps that give way to the husky vocals singer Angie Stone wraps around a languid groove on "Get to Know You Better," the album's opener, it's clear that this is a collection meant to evoke both the anguish and salvation love wreaks on souls. On "Remember," a cut contributed by Me'shell Ndegeocello, the singer's gravelly alto practically seethes with lust as she whispers "You're so damn fine" to a lover, while the inclusion of soul legend Donny Hathaway's devastating rendition of "A Song for You" resonates with the purity of a soul engulfed in passion. East Coast hip-hoppers Spooks contribute two tracks, and one can't help but enjoy the quirky, whimsical funk of "Flesh Not Bone," with its playful bounce and infectious humor. And when forever-divine soul diva Chaka Khan puts her two cents in with the slow, bittersweet ballad "Have a Little Faith in Me," and unleashes her magnificent vocals over a wash of quivering strings during the song's bridge, the results are stunning, a shining expression of both redemption and faith. <I>--Sylvia W. Chan</I>

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great Music.......2003-12-07

I remember the first time I saw the movie on HBO. I was like...good movie, great music. I had to get the soundtrack and I was not disappointed. I LOVE the Melky Sedeck track "Brooklyn". That song is so movie and heart wrenching. The Donnie Hathaway track is off the hook and takes you back. The soundtrack has such a great mixture of music that translates the urban romantic life so real. You will not be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars I LOVE THIS CD.......2003-08-29

You will not be disappointed with this CD. I am serious. You know how some people on here rate the CD because they like the artist. I don't care if I like you or the way you dress, if your CD is garbage, I will rate it that way. BUT THIS CD was INCREDIBLE. Plus, I loved the movie. BUY IT!!! It is a SEXY and SULTRY CD. BUY IT!

4 out of 5 stars Great Music.......2002-09-19

Great soundtrack to a a great movie. The variety of music styles is refreshing.

5 out of 5 stars the pluses far outweigh the minuses.......2001-09-06

Never saw the movie but that hardly matters with the jewels to be enjoyed on the soundtrack. The highlights on this collection are MAJOR highlights: Chaka's emotional cover of John Hiatt's Have A Little Faith In Me, the stunning pair from Melky Sedeck (where have they been???), Terry Ellis' sparse Call On Me, Spooks' haunting Sweet Revenge are just a few of the choicest cuts. It loses steam a little towards the end but the good stuff is sooo good, this still warrants five stars.
