Both teams produced a movie soundtrack for films that were being released that summer: 'Boomerang' (LA and Babyface) and 'Mo Money' (Jam and Lewis).The media tried to make it a competition,lol.
Both sides used the heavy artillery.Jam and Lewis brought Janet Jackson and Luther Vandross on board for their soundtrack,but I think La and Face won this battle  the 'Boomerang' soundtrack is superior.I remember indeeed. Bought both soundtracks and remember being so disappointed with the Mo Money soundtrack - it was like Jam and Lewis had turned up their trademark sounds and production effects to 11 and it was just noise, the melodies suffered. The version of Best Things In Life was not as good as the single version IMHO. Boomerang was the better film and soundtrack. End Of The Road was a mega-hit, Toni Braxton was introduced to the world and it had that lovely PM Dawn track (I think it was I'd Die without You - was that the one that sampled Father Figure by George Michael). Overall though I think I prefer Jam and Lewis career wise. Great soundtrack, "Boomerang", was. Toni Braxton kinda owes her success to Anita Baker. She was Face's first choice for most of those songs. They just could not get it together. "I'd Die Without You", by PM Dawn, does not sample "Father Figure", or any other track. It was an original production.

This is the PM Dawn song Keithy was thinking about. It was not on the Boomerang soundtrack, though. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-
