Rick James' unreleased 1989 album 'Kickin'---yay or nay?

A few tracks from Rick's 1989 album 'Kickin',which was never released.He was signed to Warner Bros. at the time and for some reason,they rejected this album.Apparently,they wanted to stick him in the studio with Al B.Sure and some other 'popular' hitmakers from the late 80s but Rick refused and was dropped from the label.


"Kickin" (title track)

"Runaway Love"

These songs are crap.By 1989,Rick had clearly run out of ideas.
