A fairly big seller overall, and a huge hit on the R&B market in 1980, Cameosis is a moderate leap from the first group of Cameo albums. Not only is the group slowly embracing New Wave and related 80's sounds, but it seemed to really glue together the group into a unique commercial and critical force. "Shake Your Pants" was the lead single and a great example of the updated Cameo - featuring a band reveling in riffing off each other over a ridiculously catchy groove that refuses to quit. Furthermore, Larry Blackmon starts to move to the forefront as vocalist, showcasing the personality which would eventually bring him mainstream stardom. Elsewhere, the group is still in the remake game ("Why I Lost You" is the winner this time), and it's essentially a record for the dance floors, but hard to imagine any other group doing it with this much class and pride than these guys.
