Review

Thump Records' Tribute to Roger Troutman features R&B and hip-hop songs that sampled the late funk pioneer's work with Zapp & Roger. A remix of 2Pac's "California Love," S.W.V.'s "Weak (Bam Jams Jeep Mix)," Jodeci's "What About Us," Blackstreet's "Booti Call," and Chantay Nelson's "True Love" are among the collection's highlights, and tracks by Ronnie Hudson, Mokenstef, EPMD, and Donell Jones reaffirm just how enduring and influential Troutman's music remains. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
