I never cared for "Just Coolin.'" It came off to me as a generic song made for the purpose of having the obligatory guest appearance from a popular rapper (Heavy D).

I agree. "Just Coolin'" is the knock. One of the all-time favorite jams from the New Jack Swing period. | |

"Just Coolin'" was released as a single in January 1989, so it's hard to call a late winter song a "summer jam." But I understand what you mean. So, where's your list? THE TRAFFIC JAMMERS, The Org's house band: VAINANDY -- lead singer; NAJEE -- bass; THE AUDIENCE -- guitar; PHUNKDADDY -- rhythm guitar; ALEX de PARIS -- keyboards; Da PRETTYMAN -- keyboards; FUNKENSTEIN -- drums.

Don't you still love him? Gerald Levert was one of the last rue R&B artist left when he passed away last year. When he performed, he gave you everything, you can tell that he meant what he was saying. PRINCE: Always and Forever

C'mon, dog. "Just Coolin'" was a No. 1 single in March 1989! It wasn't some song that was dying on the vine months after it was released before being discovered.

RIP
I feel so lucky that I had the chance to see him perform and do his notorious "roll across the stage"! Man, R&B now is so weak compared to artists like Gerald Levert If you will, so will I | |
