Near-clinical detail are the watchwords on Enter the Dru, R&B quartet Dru Hill's follow-up to their double-platinum debut album. "Is it gonna be on the floor or by the sofa ... by the TV?" If you've kept up with the exploits of pseudo-rude '90s acts on the order of Jodeci and Silk, you know the, er, drill: promises of how the singers are ready to "freak" their ladies vying with whiny ballads, all attempting to demonstrate just how enlightened and sensitive these heroes are. The formula is broken here mainly by an appearance by Wu-Tang Clan's Method Man on "This Is What We Do." Which, in a Wu-mad world, hardly counts as a formula breaker at all. --Rickey Wright

- Forgot how great this album is!!

These guys definitely had talent back in the day. its so sad to see these groups that have so much talent fall apart. This album does not give you the option to skip any tunes cause every song on here is on point. Definitely a feel good album, worth the money.

- 3'5 - Enter The Dru

After a successful

in 1996 including the hits "Tell Me", "In My Bed" and "Never Make A Promise" Dru Hill shortly became one of the most popular R&B groups on the planet. Sisqo, Jazz, Woody and Nokio (all natives from Baltimore) released this, 2 years later and it became their biggest selling album and eventually went platinum. Their style is much simular to Jodeci mixing both tender slow jamz and explicit sex anthems. Singer Sisqo even sound alot like Cedric "KCI" Hailey, and was initially critizied for ripping off his style. But Dru Hill had little competitions when they started out cause Jodeci were no longer around and few other groups were as straight forwards as them. This album feature their biggest hit, the #3 ranked "How Deep Is Your Love", their classic mega hit that represent R&B better then anything else in the late 90's. It was the soundtrack to Rush Hour and works excellent now aswell. Other then that we can say that their sophmore effort is very much polished by stellar producers like Babyface on the sweet ballad "These Are The Times" Diane Warren on "What Do I Do with the Love" not surprisingly another ballad. Slicker R&B with "This is What We Do" with Method Man and "You Are Everything" later remixed for a video release with Ja Rule. With 17 songs you got the best of both worlds, but plenty of filler aswell. I would actually say that their debut album is slightly better even if this one sold better. However, "Enter the Dru" made them interational stars and later launched Sisqo's solo career that included his 5x Platinum debut album

. There's not been much going on around anyone of them lately, but Sisqo will be relesing a new album this year. As for "Enter The Dru" it's a decent purchase that brings you back to the 90's.

- Thought it would be better

Mostly girls like it. But for guys this album is very boring. The song with Method Man is sweet. But this album is not a keeper in my book. I heard their first album is better. Get the first album instead.

- The Best of All Three

I love every track on this album. Every single one. It's an improvement upon their debut release and genre-savior in comparison to the third. I wish they'd come back with more.

- 90s soul music thrown in with classic street savvy harmony

Dru Hill's Enter The Dru was the CD that pushed the group to the fore front of the R&B game. The first single released from the CD, the up-tempo How Deep Is Your Love feat.Redman was a hit single but it was the slow jams that made this CD work. The singles These Are The Times, The Love We Had (Stays On My Mind) and of course the sentimental Beauty are all classic slow jams. Enter The Dru also featured some very strong album tracks including I'm Wondering, Holding You, I'll Be The One and What Are We Gonna Do. Enter The Dru is the best of the late-'90s R&B crooning that laces the silky-smooth grooves with splashes of street-tough shouts that are meant to antagonize as much as they are to seduce and it works very well.
