Nuttin' but Love is the fifth and final studio album by American rap group Heavy D & the Boyz. It was released on May 24, 1994, by Uptown Records and was produced by DJ Eddie F, Teddy Riley, Marley Marl, Erick Sermon, Kid Capri, Easy Mo Bee, Poke of The Trackmasters, and Pete Rock. The first track on the album, "Friends & Respect", featured spoken intros by the likes of LL Cool J, Buju Banton, KRS-One, Kool G Rap, Little Shawn, MC Lyte, Martin Lawrence, Pete Rock, Positive K, Q-Tip, Queen Latifah, Spike Lee and Treach.
Charts and singles
[edit]Nuttin' but Love proved to be the group's most successful release, reaching #11 on the Billboard 200, #1 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart (for one week), and was certified 2× Platinum. Four singles from the album made it on at least one Billboard singles chart: "Got Me Waiting" (the highest-charting single from the album, peaking at #20 on the Billboard Hot 100), "Nuttin' but Love", "Black Coffee" and "Sex wit You".
Critical reception
[edit]Ian McCann from NME wrote, "Nuttin' but Love, wrapped in a truly crummy sleeve, is more of what the D' does best, ie getting serious on the sofa while keeping one foot firmly on the shag pile. While it's hardly more than solid, standard, night-on mainstream rap, with a couple of cuts overseen by Pete Rock, you know that at least it's gonna be booming in parts."[3]
