Jodeci's Diary of a Mad Band is the sound of four church-raised singers from North Carolina proving that slow jams could hit as hard as any hip-hop record.
Released in 1993, the group's second album pushed past the polished romance of their debut toward something darker, moodier and more physical. DeVante Swing and Mr. Dalvin handled production, building heavy, brooding backdrops for K-Ci Hailey's raw, pleading lead vocals and JoJo's sweeter counterpoint. It topped the R&B albums chart and became one of the defining records of the hip-hop soul era.
The singles still sound urgent. Cry For You is a towering vocal showcase that climbs from a hush to a full-throated plea, while Feenin' turns longing into something close to obsession over a slow, smoldering groove. What About Us offers a smoother, more wounded moment, the harmonies doing as much talking as the lyrics.
The album doubles as an early sighting of future legends, too. Missy Elliott and Timbaland make their first album appearances here as part of DeVante's Swing Mob circle, and Redman drops by on You Got It.
For R&B devotees, this is where the bad-boy image and the choir-loft voices fused completely. Drop the needle late at night and let it smolder.
