7 Mile
Detroit natives 7 Mile revive some classic Motown flavor in their stirring self-titled debut. Each of the four group members sings beautifully, and their plus harmonies soar. The quixotic "Looking for Somebody" and the soulful "After" find them at their best. However, 7 Mile (who are named after a hometown street) flounder once they pick up the pace, as with their first single, "Just a Memory." --Vibe
