The gunfire and screams opening Jaheim's second CD, Still Ghetto, make it clear that while you can take the homeboy out of New Jersey, you can't take Jersey out of the homeboy, no matter how deftly he negotiates the slippery slope of R&B success. So while Still Ghetto gives us a mix of cuddly urban ballads and sleek soul, a hip-hop edge remains. Still, Jaheim's grooves convey great optimism. That's especially true of "Fabulous," where children spread the word of hope. The confessional "Put That Woman First" is a tender lesson on how to love, while the smoky "Beauty and Thug," a duet with Jaheim cheerleader Mary J. Blige, puts a contemporary urban slant on opposites attracting. There's a sensuality to Still Ghetto, even at its most unhinged (relatively speaking), and to Jaheim's voice, which has been favorably--and aptly--compared to Luther Vandross's. Could be worse. --Kim Hughes

Album Description
With his 2001 debut album he brought together sexy, soulful R&B with hardcore hip-hop and scored big time as the album went platinum. He sticks with the same ingredients for his 2002 release. Guest artists include Mary J. Blige, Tha Rayne & Duganz. Warner Bros.

This album definantly shows significant growth for Jaheim. The song choices,the lyrics, the featured artists, and Jaheim's image are all improved since his last album! I am a huge Jaheim fan and this is my favorite of all three of his albums.
My top 5
1. Diamond in da ruff
2. Fabulous
3. tight jeans
4.Long as I live
5. Put that woman first



5 out of 5 stars SMOOTH, SMOOTH, SMOOTH.........!!!   September 29, 2006
Dana Y. Bowles (West Chester, PA USA)
With a sleek, soulful style combined with the hard edge of hip-hop, Jaheim makes it all work and outdoes himself on this album. With a sound reminiscent of a young Teddy Pendergrass, Jaheim is truly at his best in Fabulous....Put That Woman First.....Diamond In Da Ruff...the entire CD is Jaheim at the top of his game. Jaheim demonstrates the type of artist that you rarely see these days...with true talent, and with an appeal that reaches the very mature listener and the hip-hop crowd. One of the very few artists whose CDs I actually purchase......this one is a must for the collection.

"Still Ghetto" is Jaheim's sophomore album. "Still Ghetto" is incredible, amazing & wonderful. I picked this album up a few months ago. I had never heard of Jaheim, I hadn't even heard of him. But when I first listened to this album, I was amazed. Jaheim has such a wonderful voice. It's so deep, so soulful. I'd love to hear more from him. After purchasing this album and listening to it numerous times back to back, I decided to get more of his material. I saw the video for the song "Anything" and I thought it was new, but I quickly learned that it was an old song off of Jaheim's debut album, "Ghetto Love". I purchased the album but I haven't gotten around to listening to it, just only a few tracks.

"Put That Woman First" was the first song I heard by this New Jersey vocalist. I saw the video and I thought it was great. This song is about, well, putting that woman first because if you don't she's going to leave. Great song, great message.

"Fabulous" is probably the best song on this album. It teaches children to keep their head up and never give up. I think that is a great message and it also features little children singing the chorus and other parts in this song.

"Special Day", "Let's Talk About It", "Me And My Bitch" & "Diamond In Da Ruff" are other songs I also like on "Still Ghetto".

Overall, this album is great. I'm looking forward to listening to "Ghetto Love".

I would never guess that such a big brotha like Jaheim would possess such a beautiful voice. He's so shy. I know he's gonna be around for a long time with a voice like that; he's got that Mary J type of soul. This album goes down like hot chocolate on a winter day, smooth. I say, cop this album, and play it whether you're in love or still looking for it.
