Review of the Dru Hill CD Enter The Dru

Enter The Dru is the latest Pop CD put out by the richly group Dru Hill and they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. I'm confident Dru Hill fans, and Pop fans alike will be pleased with this one.

Enter The Dru opens with a great track, Enter The Dru, that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It's a really nice track.

Enter The Dru is a nicely varied, mix of 17 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly gifted musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

If you're even mildly into Pop music you'll enjoy this album. Overall Enter The Dru is an a great release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.

While the entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 3 - How Deep Is Your Love, track 13 - What Do I Do With The Love, and track 17 - What Are We Gonna Do

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Enter The Dru. Great track!
