This new version of teen heartthrob B2K's sophomore disc, Pandemonium, features a bonus DVD and several R. Kellyproduced remixes, including "Bump, Bump, Bump."
With their aptly-titled sophomore disc, Pandemonium!, teen heartthrobs B2K will continue to drive their female fans wild. This time out, buff boys Lil Fizz, Omarion, Razz B, and J-Boog turn up the heat with up-tempo tracks such as the naughty, R. Kelly-produced "Bump, Bump, Bump," featuring P. Diddy, and the synth-driven, Neptunes-reminiscent "My Girl." It's the yearning ballads, however, that keep B2K's adoring public screaming for more. Here, they offer several shriek-inducing slow jams including the pleading "Would You Be Here" and the saccharine-sweet "Why I Love You" (which also appears on their platinum debut B2K). Although the quartet don't have the vocal dexterity of their urban boy brethren in 112 or Jagged Edge, as long as B2K stay hunky, they'll be causing a commotion for years to come. Anna Brown
Striking while the iron is hot, B2K were very busy in 2002, and Pandemonium! is the group's fourth album release of the year, following their self-titled debut, a remix collection, and a holiday EP. Their fast rise to the top of the pop heap is attested to by the advance single "Bump, Bump, Bump," which was produced, written, and arranged by R. Kelly and which is co-billed to rapper P. Diddy. The song is typical of the rest of the album, with its slow tempo, contrast of acoustic guitar with percussion, and choral parts. In the hands of their many writers and producers, B2K cover the usual concerns of male hip-hop music: lust ("Bump, Bump, Bump"); undying love ("One Kiss"); apology ("Sleepin'"); and, sung with the greatest feeling, accusations that the woman addressed is only interested in money ("Would You Be Here"). The writers are not shy about making use of the group's increased stature, notably on "Everything," in which one of the singers assures a woman that he still loves her even though he is now a big star, and he really wants to spend time with her, or at least talk to her on his cell phone, in between concerts and video shoots. "Why I Love You" is repeated from B2K's debut release, and an entire track, "Dog," is given over to singer Jhené, whose upcoming album is promoted with an insert in the CD jewel box. [There is also a version that includes the bonus track "Dog," as well as an accompanying DVD that includes "Behind the Scenes" footage.] William Ruhlmann
