| the critics | The Village Voice: "Cruising in the r&b lane, Day 26, when they do slow it down, slow it down nicely. But contrived catchy numbers leave the vocals sounding more crowded than harmonized." | Rolling Stone: "A real delight, capturing exactly the vocal sound and ecstatic spirit of the Jackson Five's early hits. New Edition benefits from better recording techniques, though; the rhythms are punchier, the whole sound fuller." |

Cruz, Im sure its not Mun2's intention to offend anyone, they just want to know who people like nowadays, old acts like New Edition dont scratch surfaces anymore except when the old school cats mention their name, its a new time and new day and there are new acts to follow....so in other words get with the Mun2 Program or there are many other links on holamun2.com you can click on that wont offend you.... you have the choice so.. click wisely.
