去年一開始帶著大家盤點近期發行焦點，今年決定逆向操作，請跟我們一起搭上時光機重返20年前，回味仍處R&B黃金時代的輝煌光景。
1998年，Destiny's Child、Tamia、Mýa、Kelly Price與Tyrese推出生涯頭號大碟，個個一鳴驚人，當然少不了號稱最猛出道專輯候選人之一的Lauryn Hill；Maxwell、Brandy、Monica、Beverley Knight、Deborah Cox及Faith Evans這票經驗值較高的學長姐，則紛紛發表第二張專輯，其中又以Brandy與Monica暢銷全球的合作〈The Boy Is Mine〉最為人津津樂道；熱衷美聲團體的粉絲，千萬別忘記Total、Divine、Dru Hill跟112專輯皆在10月27日上市，可謂盛況空前。
