Review

Rick James moved from Motown to Reprise Records with this rap song, "featuring Roxanne Shante," which topped the R&B singles chart in 1988, suggesting that a James comeback was in the offing. Instead, it was James's swan song: He soon issued his Reprise debut, Wonderful, but hasn't been near a major label since. The maxi-single features five versions of "Loosey's Rap" in a variety of mixes and one instrumental track, which is probably more than anyone but a club DJ needs. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi
