This CD has been on my "Wish List" for about a year now, once I realized it was no longer in my collection. "Candy Rain" never fails to have me dancing and singing along.

Loved this song so much when it was always on the radio! When I saw the video with the Heavy D remix, I got real excited!

This song really epitomizes Heavy D's fun, lighthearted spirit, and how he loved to dance. I was surprised when I saw him recently in "Tower Heist", even though I remembered that it was the last movie he had been working on before we lost him. May Heavy D be resting peacefully.

I was shocked by his death too, but also relieved he got to perform Jam once with Latoya. He was way too young. Every time I hear Jam come on on my ipod and his rap comes in, I remember he and MJ are together now.

I hadn't reflected on that until this moment. sad

Aw sorry to make you sad. Losing MJ still makes me so sad, but I try to find the beauty in his transition too, though it was so wrong and untimely :*(

Good song from a good debut album. Unfortunately the follow up did not

live up to the debut album.

Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

Oh shit, this right here is still the jam!

This is one of those songs that even the little kids know. It's cemented in pop culture.

It's shame they didn't take off. This is the only song I know by them.

I think those were their only hits? I don't even recall their second album.

"Every Little Thing I Do" was on the debut; it was the follow up to "Candy Rain."

I also liked the third single, "If You Want It":

Soul for Real's second album, For Life, was produced by Sean Combs and released on September 24, 1996. The album peaked at #119 on the Billboard 200.The first single "Never Felt This Way Before" failed to chart but the album's second single "Love You So" peaked at #64 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs in 1997.

"Never Felt This Way Before" (1996)

"Love So You" (1996)

Produced by Sean Combs, you say? No wonder is flopped.

P. Diddy has ruined so many careers it's not even funny. lol

I was thinking the same thing nod "Candy Rain" is a fun,infectious tune with a hook that you can't get out of your head.The two singles from the second album (posted above) are bland,forgettable R&B tunes that go nowhere.
