This Should Move Ya
''This Should Move Ya'' is the fourth album by the American hip hop/ electro funk group Mantronix, released in 1990. It was the second Mantronix album released on Capitol Records. ''This Should Move Ya'' featured new members Bryce "Luvah" Wilson and Kurtis Mantronik’s cousin D.J. D, who joined founding member Mantronik following the departure of rapper MC Tee. " Got to Have Your Love" reached No. 4 on the British Hit Singles chart. Critical reception The ''Calgary Herald'' wrote that most of the album "doesn't rise about mediocre, unenlightened rap music." The '' Chicago Tribune'' determined that Luvah "has a strong enough voice to cut through the technical wizardry." The ''Orange County Register'' deemed the album "an encyclopedia of current black-music styles." '' The Dallas Morning News'' concluded that it "features plenty of the playful sound mixing that has become the hallmark of band leader Mantronik."

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All-Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as All-Music Guide by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it, he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
