Product Description

After going gold with their debut album, NO DOUBT, Meelah, Misha, and Irish offer a self-titled follow-up. The girls are leaving their teenage years and entering the adult world of R&B. 702 proves that these three sisters can hang with thelikes of such hit-making female trios as SWV, TLC, and Total.
The up-tempo "Where My Girls At" is a warning to "the other woman" who tries to steal someone else's man--and a reason to dance. The Soul Shock & Karlin-produced "You Don't Know", in which the girls' vocals are intriguingly transformed with an instrument known as a talkbox, is another strong cut. This is an album about love, and the girls' emotion-filled performances get the point across. 702 has its share of ballads and sentimental songs--"Gotta Leave" and "Finally" are especially fine.

Amazon.co.uk Review
When Missy Elliott wants to pretend that she's a one-woman Holland/Dozier/Holland writing and producing hits for the Supremes, she hooks up with 702, the female R&B trio named after the area code for their hometown of Las Vegas. Elliott crafted four songs for 702's 1996 debut, No Doubt, including the hit "Steelo". For this overdue follow-up, Elliott has come up with two more, including the Top 10 pop smash, "Where My Girls At". The single boasts an irresistible push-and-pull rhythm that intersects cleverly with the sing-along chorus, and 702 gives this warning to would-be man stealers a youthful vulnerability that the tougher Elliott could never have managed herself. Elliott's two tracks are the highlights, but Kameelah Williams and sisters Irish and Lemisha Grinstead have made a successful transition from high-school-age prodigies to college-age pros. They don't have overpowering voices, but do display a sure sense of pitch, a surer sense of rhythm, and a seductive sweetness on the catchy new-jack tunes created for them by Whitney Houston cohorts Soulshock and Karlin, Dru Hill's Warren "Smiley" Campbell, and Rick "Dutch" Cousin of Ice Cube fame. --Geoffrey Himes

Customer Reviews

Better than most girl groups
I recently bought 702's sophomore album and found that it was much better than their debut. "You'll just never know",and "Don't go breaking my heart", are the only two songs that should have been left out as they are a tad bland in a 'Honeyz' kind of way. The remainder of the album is full of upbeat tunes that put TLC, EnVogue and All Saints to shame. 702 are the only female RnB group to come close to stealing Destiny's child's crown. They show great diversity and although their voices aren't crystal shattering they can hold a tune and sound extremely pleasant. If you are an RnB fan then this is the album for you my particular favourites are " You don't know" and "Will you be ok?" they combine big beats with harmonies and are simply the best tracks I have heard for a long time. Enjoy!

Deliciously Sweet
I first heard 702 on the radio with "Where My Girls At" in the summer and immediately resolved to buy their album. They all have sweet as sugar voices but they manage to produce tracks that do not appear sappy and sickly. "Seven" and "U don't Know" prove this. This album is perfect for any mood, although the beat can be repetative after a while. Highly recomended

They still got it!!!!
This album is good-not as good as the first, but these girls can still do it. They sound alot maturer which is good and more melodys are apparent(like track 4).GREAT ALBUM-IF YOU LIKE 702,YOU'LL LOVE THIS
