Jodeci - Diary Of A Mad Band (flac)





Editorial Reviews - Amazon.com  - Jeffrey Himes





Much of the thrill of soul balladry is hearing a singer, especially a male singer, 


overcome the cultural emphasis on toughness and self-sufficiency and confess the most vulnerable of desires. 





In this hip-hop era of exaggerated toughness, there are greater obstacles to 


overcome and thus the potential for even more thrilling revelations. 





DeVante Swing, the mastermind behind the male vocal quartet Jodeci, seizes that 


potential more than once on the group's new album, Diary of a Mad Band. 





The group shares the vocal responsibilities, but the credits on nine of the 


album's 13 tracks read, "Music and Lyrics by DeVante Swing; 


Vocal arrangement: DeVante Swing; DeVante Swing: All Instruments." 





Thus the challenge of juggling romantic vulnerability with street credibility 


comes down on DeVante's 23-year-old shoulders. 





He fumbles the ball on a few occasions--the dumb, juvenile demands for sex 


on "You Got It" and "Sweaty"--but more often than not he comes through with 


soul ballads in the classic mode, revealing the tender heart beneath the thickened skin. 





The first single, "Cry for You," harkens back to the slow hymns of Jodeci's 


church backgrounds; the singers promise, "I would get on my knees for you," 


and the dizzying free fall of the melody underscores the total surrender of 


the lyrics. 





The next single, "Feenin'," is a similar confession, but it's juiced up with 


tape-reverse percussion sounds, a Zapp-like vocorder riff and a gruff lead set 


against angelic harmonies. 





Even "Ride & Slide" and "Alone," rather frank sexual propositions, have the good 


grace to plead rather than demand; they even promise detailed attention to female erogenous zones. 





At its best, Jodeci is the most promising soul harmony group of the hip-hop generation.
