Why you'll love it

No diggity, no doubt. Teddy Riley's Blackstreet hit their peak with this 1996 album, home to "No Diggity", one of the coolest R&B singles ever made, plus "Don't Leave Me" and "Fix". It went quadruple platinum in the US and double platinum in Canada.

About the album

Riley invented new jack swing, and here he pushes it into smooth, hip-hop-heavy territory, with lush harmonies on top. Long enough to need two discs, good enough that you won't skip a thing.

Play that, playa.

Also at Kops: more Hip Hop & R&B
