Amazon.co.uk Review
Jaheim's Ghetto Love should give fans of tried-and-true gutbucket R&B much cause for joy in 2001. Signed to ex-Naughty By Nature DJ Kay-Gee's Divine Mill imprint (and with production mainly by Mr. "Hip Hop Hooray"), the New Jersey-born Jaheim's tender-but-tough sound harks back to Teddy Pendergrass: just listen to the sexy moan that kicks off "Could It Be". Not even remotely shabby. As this debut's title indicates, Ghetto Love overflows with rough-hewn odes to romance on the raw side of town. In this case, that means songs about giving as much love to one's niggas as to one's bitches, denying paternity and rhymes about Hennessey. It might look clichéd on paper, but Jaheim is skilled enough to transcend trite truisms. On the smoky "Looking For Love" and the finger-snapping "Let It Go", he earns his stripes, making his mark with a taut album that has an old playa's soul and a new jack's swagger. --Amy Linden

CD Description
Though R&B pinup boy Jaheim's artistic focus is on life in the ghetto, he doesn't fall in line with the confrontationalhip-hoppers who revel in the difficulties, violence, and harshness of urban life. Instead, as the album's title suggests, he focuses on the romance that blossoms even on the mean streets.
GHETTO LOVE roams smoothly from the sultry slow jam of "Looking for Love" to the '70s-style funk backing andforceful beat of "Let it Go" and the hip-hop-oriented "Li'lNigga Ain't Mine", which revisits the theme examined in Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean". Jaheim is assisted on his debut album by some talented friends, including Castro, Miss Jones, and Terry Dexter, but it's his own way with a melody andknack for balancing street-cred hip-hop with heartfelt soulthat are the most memorable elements on this disc.

Customer Reviews

The 'Must Have' album for true R'n'B lovers x
This is a truly brilliant album. Jaheim isnt huge in the U.K but I heard 'Just in Case' on MTV Base and fell in love with this sexy, soulful r'n'b singer. I followed my ears and bought 'Ghetto Love' and I must say I made an excellent buy. True R'n'B fans will love this album as it is smooth and easy listening. My ever favourite song on this album has to be 'Remarkable'which shows his voice off the best,and that voice is something to show off! but all the songs are amazing. Trust me if u like R'n'B you'll like Jaheim x

A star with pure talent is born!
I had seen the video for Jaheim's 'Could It Be' on MTV Base and was impressed, I followed up my interest by buying the CD album. Just what can I say now? If this isn't the best album of the year I'll eat grass until Christmas. Pure swing with hip hop touches, there are NO fillers here - just decent, head nodding cuts from track 1 to 21. Higlights include Looking For Love, Ghetto Love, Waitin' On You and of course Could It Be. Don't think about it, just buy it, you'll be missing out otherwise!!

This guy has the best voice ive ever heard!!!
This is a quality debut album, and my all-time favouite along with his newalbum. This guy can sing!
