Comment:

Aside from the rising-star status of a certain smooth operator (Ne-Yo), a leader of Bad Boy's next generation (Yung Joc), and the former first couple of cutting-edge R&B — Chris Brown and Rihanna, best represented by the slick "Tainted Love" samples of "SOS" and the deceivingly simple "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)" — most of our [i]Hip-Hop/R&B: 2006[/i] set features familiar names. The catch? They're [i]all[/i] changing the game in their own special way, whether we're talkin' about the slurry flow, high-pitched synths ("What You Know") and sly house samples ("Why You Wanna") of T.I.; the undisputed R&B queen crown of Mary J. Blige; or Justin Timberlake's tireless efforts to bring sexy back. In the words of Eminem, you'll be shaking that thang in no time once you let the Essentials crew be your own personal DJ.
