Torrent description
Neneh Cherry, the critically acclaimed singer/songwriter and rapstress who burst onto the scene in 1989 with the mega-hit Buffalo Stance, did not even see the release of her third album, Man, in the United States.
This set differs from her previous efforts in that there is absolutely no rap to be found anywhere on the disc, and all of the songs are slow-burning, mid-tempo alt-rock numbers, as opposed to anything remotely resembling dance or rap (though there are some hip-hop styled beats).
There are really no immediate hits on this album, although it includes the international chart-topping duet with Youssou NDour, 7 Seconds, as well as several other highlights, including Woman, Hornbeam, and Everything. Also included here is a tribute cover she recorded of Marvin Gayes Trouble Man.
The album is a high-quality collection of alt-rock womens anthems, at times bluesy, at times folksy, and much more akin to her previous rock-leaning effort Homebrew than her breakthrough Raw Like Sushi.
The songs have an organic, earthy feel, in tune with the Lilith Fair alternative-style musical movement going on at the time. A good deal of alterna-sexual references are found, especially considering some of the song titles (first single Kootchi and Beastiality, to mention two).
A solid album, but definitely not very commercial. Still, it should have been given a chance in the U.S. market, especially given her previous track record. (AMG)
