Outta Space Love
Outta Space Love is the third album by the hip-hop trio Group 1 Crew, released on September 21, 2010. It has a more electronic style than their previous albums, and has drawn comparisons to the music of The Black Eyed Peas. Critics have found it futuristic and danceable. The album spent one week on the "Billboard" 200, peaking at #96. It also spent eight weeks on the "Billboard" Christian Albums chart, peaking at #4. The first single released was "Breakdown", which was released in March. It was soon followed by "Walking On the Stars". "Live It  Up" was released via iTunes as the "Free Single of the Week", but not officially to radio. The next single released was "Please Don't Let Me Go", which peaked at number 3 on the Air 1 Radio top 10. The album was re-released as "Outta Space Love: Bigger Love Edition" in 2012. This features blue-coloured artwork instead of red; the "Love" logo featured inside now reads "Bigger Love"; the album "thank you" section omits Pablo's entry; and Pablo is digitally removed from the planet artwork and photo shoot. This re-release adds two tracks previously exclusive  to iTunes, plus two new songs and two remixes. Reviews.
