    This Is Pop For Patrice

    By Andre'  Feb 16, 2006

    Pros: Bubbly And Very 80's

    Cons: Artistically bankrupt in parts in favor of commercial success

    Patrice Rushen had been so successful with her blend of vocal R&B and poppy jazz that when she ripped all of those influences away on this 1986 CD I'm sure she lost alot of fans.But Rushen can never fully hide from her true musical heart as she l...ets one funky jazz piano solo rip towards the end of the last track "Tender Lovin'".For those who like peppy uptempo pop tunes the title track."Anything Can Happen" and the Pointer Sisters/Richard Perry-like "Breakin' All The Rules".Generally this album is dominated by extrememly soft R&B ballads that were all the vogue for female soul singers of the time (save for the fierce funk of "Burnin'") and sounds very much like an archive of it's time.Yes 'Watch Out!" is one of Patrice Rushen's most flaud and dated releases but because she is the type of musician and performer she is this album has a savvyness, elegence and professionalism that makes it as worth hearing as all of Patrice's other brilliant music.

Pro Reviews: Watch Out

  • All Music Guide

    Patrice Rushen's Watch Out was the singer/songwriter/producer's sole Arista album. The playful, upbeat title track single was a Top Ten RB hit. The production duo of Jerry Knight and Aaron Zigman (the Jets, Natalie Cole's Everlasting) contributes the crystalline ballad "Somewhere," which was a popular radio-aired LP track, and the peppy, charting follow-up single "Anything Can Happen." Other tracks to watch out for are the cute, mid-tempo "All My Love"; the tasty slow jam "Till She's out of Your Mind"; the tumbling, funky third single "Come Back to Me"; and the rollicking "Tender Lovin'." The Watch Out LP broke the RB Top 20 and was reissued on CD by BMG International on April 25, 2000.
