Brown's 1988 smash DON'T BE CRUEL had made his name synonymous with new jack swing, a hybrid of mainstream soul and hip-hop production that transformed the face of contemporary R&B. While BOBBY isn't as consistent as DON'T BE CRUEL, it has its share of winners. The lead-off track, "Humpin' Around," has the sort of slick, smooth funk groove that provides the perfect complement to Brown's sensual tenor. The same is true of the thumping "Two Can Play That Game," while "Lovin' You Down" has Brown in his best seductive ballad mode. The album suffers a bit from filler, but the strong tracks make it a worthwhile investment, especially for Brown fans and enthusiasts of the genre.
