R&b: Regina Belle Don't Let Go





PRODUCERS: Erik "E-Smooth" Hicks, Mike Manni
WRITERS: E. Hicks, R. Belle
PUBLISHER: not listed
REMIXER: Erik "E-Smooth" Hicks
MCA 4172 (cassette single)

What a pleasure it is to welcome Belle back to the front lines of R&B radio. She introduces her lovely, highly notable MCA debut, "Believe In Me," with a seductive, jazz-kissed ballad that illuminates her markedly matured approach to lyrics. The track's co-producer, Erik "E-Smooth" Hicks, widens its appeal with a smoldering remix that emphasizes the song's sultry bassline and Belle's from-the-gut belting. It also has a fresh groove that will likely elevate "Don't Let Go" beyond adult-driven quiet storm shows into the realm of kiddie-dominated mainstream jeep-soul programming.
