Chantay Savage I Will Survive (Doin' It My Way) RCA/BMG Chantay Savage is definitely womana with a purpose and her purpose seems to be to blow up as large as possi- ble...doin' it her way. "I Will Survive" and "Baby Drive Me HIT \II Crazy" have already drawn a huge response. But that's just a scratch on the surface. "Pillow Talk" is a slow, very seductive, love groove; "Brown Sugar," "Let's Do It Right" and "Callin" are also standouts of what could be called a 1. classic album. Demos: 18-40 "Hit Me Off" MCA Kino Watson True The2 Game Columbia/Sony Kino Watson has been successful in drumming up fer-a vor with his first sin- gle "Bring It On." His album is teeming with similar styled hits awaiting release. The stand out ones are "I'm The Man (Your Mom ma Been Warnin' You About)," "Bring It On," "Body Language," "The Best Things In Life Are Free" and "Black Beauty." Great pro- duction with beautiful 2. Gina Thompson lyrics make this album "The Things That You Do" one to take seriously. Mercury Demos: All.

Innersoul The Theory U S E YO U R HEA R T Mix-It-Up Innersoul has most definitely come correct with their debut LP. to. Their beats are refreshingly unique, as in "How You Gonna Do It," "Whoiszim" and "Looking for Survival." These brothas aren't just musically unique; they are conceptionally anom- alous as well. They are into uplifting the soul and mind as well. f They're deep. Demos: Rap Fans. SI 3. SWV "Use Your Heart" MISM RCA/BMG

Vanessa Williams "Where Do We Go From Here" Mercury This single release from the Eraser soundtrack, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and co-starring Williams, has her singing enticingly over a soothing track creating a euphourous sound. Quiet Storm, AC, R&B and Pop formats are equally comfortable to Ms America. Demos: 18-40

Gina Thompson "The Things That You Do" Mercury Thompson brings a hip-hop/r&b appeal with a spin of her own. 4. Ce Ce Peniston The track sways the body and the voice of Gina Thompson "Movin' On" hooks the listener. One of the most added in radio this week, this remix by "Puffy" Combs is finding a home from BET to Perspective, AO WJBT. Demos: All.

T-Boz "I " (Fled soundtrack) Rowdy/ Sexual education and elucidation have always been the undercurrent of TLC's music. In "," a solo effort produced by , attempts to further our education by opening our minds to a subject many hold as taboo. The message, enveloped in a dope beat carried on T-Boz's sexy voice, is readily absorbed. Demos: All.

Junior Mafia "We Don't Need It" (Sunset Park soundtrack) Flavor Unit/East West/AG Sunset Park is dripping with butter soaked tracks. In fact many of the artists put out some of their 5. AZ Yet most powerful product on this compilation. Junior Mafia, who constantly represents the East Coast, is no exception. The Mafia gets down into the sexual side of things. Little Caesar, Lil' Kim, "Last Night" and Trife come off phat on a rugged track. All the MC's represent the Mafia, but Lil' Kim rips the LaFoce/ Arista track in a whole new way. The uncut version is better than the radio version. Demos: Rap.
