 | DANNY BOY "IT'S ABOUT TIME" CD ALBUM Male R&B/Soul If you rode for the West Coast in the '90s, chances are you know Danny Boy from his numerous features on 2pac tracks. In particular, Danny helped make "I Ain't Mad At 'Cha," off Pac's All Eyez On Me, just that much more grandiose with his huge hook. But the Chicago native, who reportedly recorded five albums' worth of material, never released a record under his own name. He, like many others, was a victim to the drama surrounding Death Row Records. But Danny kept recording tracks and eventually teamed up with DJ Quik, who produces many of the tracks on the singer's appropriately titled debut, It's About Time. Price: £10.99

 | ERYKAH BADU "NEW AMERYKAH PART TWO (RETURN OF THE ANKH)" CD ALBUM Female R&B/Soul 2010 release, the fifth studio album from the R&B/Neo-Soul superstar. In contrast to New Amerykah Part One (4th World War), which was digitally produced and political in tone, New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh features lush live instrumentation and taps into Badu's emotional side by thematically focusing on romance and relationships. "We used a lot of analog instruments...harps, strings, drums, piano, and even a Theremin, to give the album that sonic feel," says Badu. "There's a strong undercurrent of bottom, a rumbling to these songs that feels good to me. It feels like a hug." Click picture for track listing. Price: £10.99
