Released on April 1, 1991, by Bust It Records and Capitol Records, this eponymous debut album launched the solo career of B Angie B (Angela Roxanna Boyd), the powerhouse vocalist and dancer originally discovered as a backup singer for MC Hammer. Produced by James Earley and Felton Pilate of Con Funk Shun, the record is a quintessential example of early nineties New Jack Swing and contemporary R&B. The album features several breakout hits, most notably her soulful cover of The Emotions' "I Don't Want To Lose Your Love," which reached number two on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart, and a high-energy remake of Rufus & Chaka Khan's "Sweet Thing". With executive production by MC Hammer and Louis K. Burrell, the project successfully blended hip-hop-influenced production with Angie's "down-home soul shouting," peaking at number 12 on the US Top R&B Albums chart and cementing her place as a prominent figure in the Oakland music scene.
