A hidden gem of new-age R&B, directly descended from Motown
With its sweet choruses and sophisticated sound, it embodies late 90s R&B.
The four-piece R&B group from Detroit, 7 Mile's only album, "7 Mile," was released by Motown in 1998. Produced by talented producers including Menno Jackson, the album fuses smooth melodies with urban beats. While drawing on the influences of TLC and Boyz II Men, it features a more street-inspired balance. While it wasn't a major hit, it's a hidden gem that's essential for understanding the richness of late '90s R&B.
