There are lots of different styles here from funk, soul, R&B, Latin, reggae, gangsta rap and what sounds like '50s pop-soul on 'Wait a Minute Baby' and 'Everybody Watching' that have a strong throwback feel. I love good R&B that goes somewhere, but too many of these R&B/soul tracks end as they start. There is virtually zero build up. 'Higher Power' is one such example that also ends with a rap where the rapper raps in this annoying melancholy expression that so many seem to think sounds good. While the project is titled 'Death Row Summer', there isn't much of the genre here that Death Row was famous for. The best of them is Tha Dogg Pound's 'Whoopty Whoop'. Like I said, too many slow moving songs that go nowhere. If you love that D'Angelo type of R&B you may get more out of this than me. Best Tracks: Bad, Touch Away, Whoopty Whoop, Baila Conmigo
