About
Blackstreet weren't yet famous when they dropped their swaggering debut in 1994, but group mastermind Teddy "Street" Riley was no stranger to the Top 40. As a singer-producer in Guy, he helped invent the new jack swing sound—a brazenly percussive and bass-heavy mix of hip-hop, dance-pop, and soul scored on samplers and drum machines—and he parlayed that into major gig, including producing half of Michael Jackson's <i>Dangerous</i>. In fact, the rest of Blackstreet's initial lineup, including Chauncey "Black" Hannibal, were background singers Riley discovered during sessions for Bobby Brown's <i>Bobby</i>. <i>Blackstreet</i> finds New Jack Swing in transition and Riley inspired at the helm of his own project again. .
