The Vault: Classic Music Reviews Podcast

B. Cox welcomes back in Charlee D of the Word To The Mutha Podcast to the show to review the original soundtrack to the black romantic comedy Boomerang. The film starring an all-star cast of Eddie Murphy, Halle Berry, Robin Givens, David Alan Grier, Martin Lawrence, Chris Rock and the late Eartha Kitt and John Witherspoon, was a huge hit grossing over $160 million in the summer of the 1992.

The film was accompanied by an equally powerful all-star soundtrack released on LaFace Records. The album was executive produced by Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds and Antonio "LA" Reid and featured contributions from artist such as Boyz II Men, PM Dawn, Johnny Gill, TLC, A Tribe Called Quest and the introduction to an artist the public would be very familiar with over the coming years -- Toni Braxton.

The soundtrack featured a few classic singles: the mega hit by Boyz II Men "End Of The Road", which broke a Billboard Hot 100 record for consecutive weeks at #1, "Love Should Have Brought You Home Last Night" by Toni Braxton, and "I'd Die Without You" by hip-hop/R&B group PM Dawn.
