1	Back to Black (2006) more music like this by Amy Winehouse The story of Back to Black is one in which celebrity and the potential of commercial success threaten to ruin Amy Winehouse, since the same insouciance and playfulness that made her sound so special when she debuted could easily have been whitewashed right out of existence for this breakout record. (That fact may help to explain why fans were so ... see all copies from $8.13! new only from $11.87!
2	Amos Lee (2005) more music like this by Amos Lee With a dusky soul voice and a knack for literate, thoughtful lyrics, singer/songwriter Amos Lee is a throwback to a more organic-sounding pop time period. Calling to mind a mix of Bill Withers, Arthur Lee, and James Taylor, Lee croons through his mellow eponymous debut with a singular sense of his time and place that adds weight to his already ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $15.81!
3	Corinne Bailey Rae (2006) more music like this by Corinne Bailey Rae When songstress Corinne Bailey Rae released her sashaying single "Put Your Records On" in her native U.K. it was a feel-good adult alternative phenomenon -- a kind of Norah Jones, Joss Stone, David Gray, or Macy Gray phenomenon. One listen to her breakout soft soul anthem and it's easy to hear why, since Rae is a mix of all the above but not a ... see all copies from $6.20! new only from $6.20!
4	Once Again (2006) more music like this by John Legend Get Lifted netted John Legend a major hit ("Ordinary People") that will be heard on adult contemporary stations and throwback-oriented programs as long as they exist, platinum status, and three Grammy titles -- including the potential kiss of death that is Best New Artist. If Legend hadn't linked up with Kanye West or any other connected industry ... see all copies from $16.59! new only from $16.59!
5	St. Elsewhere (2006) more music like this by Gnarls Barkley Who is Gnarls Barkley, and how did he ascend to the top of the British charts with a song that brings an eerie clarity to the cloud of mental illness? (Hint: It wasn't just the fact that Britain began factoring download data into its chart equations.) If St. Elsewhere sounds like one of the best rap-based pop productions since the second Gorillaz ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $8.24!
6	The Evolution of Robin Thicke [Deluxe Edition] (2007) more music like this by Thicke The story goes that the very happening Pharrell Williams asked music mogul and Interscope president Jimmy Iovine about his plans for Robin Thicke and then quickly snatched the artist up for his Star Trak imprint. Pharrell's enthusiasm for Thicke -- suave son of squeaky-clean celebrities Alan Thicke and Gloria Loring -- suggests he's one of the few ... see all copies from $8.57! new only from $8.57!
7	Get Lifted (2004) more music like this by John Legend If you've listened to Top 40 radio or flipped through the video channels during the past few years, odds are pretty good you know something about John Legend. He played piano on Lauryn Hill's "Everything Is Everything" and might as well be considered Kanye West's sidekick, having assisted the producer and MC on several sessions -- Jay-Z's "Encore" ... see all copies from $4.92! new only from $12.69!
8	Songs in A Minor (2001) more music like this by Alicia Keys Alicia Keys' debut album, Songs in A Minor, made a significant impact upon its release in the summer of 2001, catapulting the young singer/songwriter to the front of the neo-soul pack. Critics and audiences were captivated by a 19-year-old singer whose taste and influences ran back further than her years, encompassing everything from Prince to ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $6.00!
9	The Soul Sessions (2003) more music like this by Joss Stone Q: She's 16 and British, what can she possibly know about singing vintage American soul music? A: Enough to make you squirm, get off your ass, and dance close with anybody who'll have you. Joss Stone is a young woman who, if you believe the story, was about to record her wannabe pop smash debut and then be well on her way to becoming the next ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $12.07!
10	The Diary of Alicia Keys (2003) more music like this by Alicia Keys Since Alicia Keys' 2001 debut album, Songs in A Minor, was ever so slightly overpraised, expectations for her second album, 2003's The Diary of Alicia Keys, were ever so slightly too high. Songs in A Minor not only kicked off a wave of ambitious new neo-soul songsters, it fit neatly into the movement of ambitious yet classicist new female singer ... see all copies from $2.40! new only from $11.49!
11	The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (1998) more music like this by Lauryn Hill Though the Fugees had been wildly successful, and Lauryn Hill had been widely recognized as a key to their popularity, few were prepared for her stunning debut. The social heart of the group and its most talented performer, she tailored The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill not as a crossover record but as a collection of overtly personal and ... see all copies from $2.21! new only from $12.69!
12	Supply and Demand (2006) more music like this by Amos Lee On the title track to his sophomore effort, Supply and Demand, singer/songwriter Amos Lee sings, "Baby I need a plan to help me understand, that life ain't only supply and demand." If the supply and demand Lee is referring to is money, success, and power -- and it clearly is -- then the stuff he truly values here is the currency of freedom, love, ... see all copies from $16.84! new only from $16.84!
13 view cover	Chocolate Factory (2003) more music like this by R. Kelly R. Kelly was hardly a stranger to controversy in the early 2000s. In addition to being hit with 21 counts of child pornography in Chicago and 12 more in Polk County, FL, the beleaguered singer/producer faced various sex-related civil suits. All those scandals have, at times, overshadowed his music, which is regrettable because Chocolate Factory ... see all copies from $5.25! new only from $6.61!
14 view cover	The Real Thing: Words and Sounds, Vol. 3 (2007) more music like this by Jill Scott The photos on the cover and within the booklet of The Real Thing: Words and Sounds, Vol. 3 do not match the music. Does Jill Scott really have to hail a cab? Is she really awakened in the middle of the night by the need to write songs with an anguished look on her face? Really? Because these songs sound like they were written as she was fed ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $13.07!
15 view cover	Acoustic Soul (2001) more music like this by India.Arie As one of the most promising neo-soul artists yet to emerge in the past few years, India.Arie casts her lot with the best artists of her label's storied history, playing deeply introspective songs laced with glistening acoustic guitar, churchy organ, and smooth, supple beats. When she name-checks those artists no longer with us that she claims as ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $13.34!
16 view cover	Mind, Body & Soul (2004) more music like this by Joss Stone On the cover of her debut, The Soul Sessions, Joss Stone's face is obscured by a vintage microphone, a deliberate move that emphasized the retro-soul vibe of the LP while hiding the youthful face that would have given away that Stone was a mere 16 years old at the time of the album's release. The point was to put the music before the image and it ... see all copies from $3.95! new only from $3.95!
17 view cover	Baduizm (1997) more music like this by Erykah Badu Two years after D'Angelo brought the organic sound and emotional passion of R&B to the hip-hop world with 1995's Brown Sugar, Erykah Badu's debut performed a similar feat. While D'Angelo looked back to the peak of smooth '70s soul, though, Badu sang with a grit and bluesiness reminiscent of her heroes, Nina Simone and Billie Holiday. "On & On" and ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $7.65!
18 view cover	On How Life Is (1999) more music like this by Macy Gray Macy Gray is such an assured, original vocalist that it's hard to believe On How Life Is is her debut album. She recalls a number of other vocalists, particularly jazz singers like Billie Holiday and Nina Simone, but she is unquestionably from the post-hip-hop generation, which is evident not just from the sound of the record, but the style of her ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.99!
19 view cover	Experience: Jill Scott 826+ (2001) more music like this by Jill Scott What you think of Jill Scott's second album, Experience: Jill Scott 826+, is going to depend on how you define the two-hour, double-disc set. Is it, as its title suggests, a live album (recorded mostly on August 26, 2001, in Washington, D.C., hence the "826") plus a bonus disc containing some new studio tracks? Or is it a new studio album with a ... see all copies from $5.25! new only from $5.25!
20 view cover	Who Is Jill Scott?: Words and Sounds, Vol. 1 (2000) more music like this by Jill Scott Though start-up label Hidden Beach and its manufacturer/distributor Sony may have been hoping for another Lauryn Hill in this eloquent young African-American from a Middle Atlantic state, Jill Scott turns out to be something of a hip-hop Patti Smith, a street poet who, on her first album, hasn't quite made the transition from spoken word ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $12.77!
21 view cover	Comin' from Where I'm From (2003) more music like this by Anthony Hamilton After two albums recorded in the mid-'90s went unreleased and 1999's XTC was largely overlooked, former D'Angelo backup singer Anthony Hamilton's fourth bid for solo success, Comin' From Where I'm From feels more like a hard-won debut. Featuring savvy R&B production from the likes of Cedric Solomon and James Poyser of the Soulquarians, Comin' is a ... see all copies from $15.35! new only from $15.35!
22 view cover	Introducing Joss Stone (2007) more music like this by Joss Stone Typically, artists dispense with introductions after their debut -- after all, that is an album designed to introduce them to the world -- but neo-soul singer Joss Stone defiantly titled her third album Introducing Joss Stone, thereby dismissing her first two relatively acclaimed albums with one smooth stroke. She now claims that those records ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $5.28!
23 view cover	Lyfe 268-192 (2004) more music like this by Lyfe Jennings Opening with an intro and going right into a talky interlude, you just know Lyfe 268-192 is a heavy-with-message, ambitious album that's going to flirt with ponderous disaster. Quit worrying, because what Lyfe Jennings has to say is worth hearing, well presented for the most part, and you only have to excuse some overeagerness. The biggest problem ... see all copies from $7.09! new only from $9.99!
24 view cover	State of Mind (2005) more music like this by Raul Midón Hailed as one of the breakout releases of 2005, blind guitarist Raul Midón's major-label debut generally justifies the hype. He is a stunning acoustic guitarist with a percussive, at times Latin style, and a silky, inviting singer straight out of the Stevie Wonder/Donny Hathaway school. (Wonder plays on one track and Hathaway is the subject of ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $15.98!
25 view cover	Brown Sugar (1995) more music like this by D'Angelo By the mid-'90s, most urban R&B had become rather predictable, working on similar combinations of soul and hip-hop, or relying on vocal theatrics on slow, seductive numbers. With his debut album, Brown Sugar, the 21-year-old D'Angelo crashed down some of those barriers. D'Angelo concentrates on classic versions of soul and R&B, but unlike most of ... see all copies from $2.24! new only from $11.04!
