Miami-based R&B superstars Pretty Ricky combine the gleeful sleaze of hometown heroes like 2 Live Crew and Poison Clan with the seamless production aesthetic of contemporary R&B, making for a brand of music that enhances mainstream appeal with the sort of raunchy comedic edge cultivated by old school masters like Blowfly and Andre Williams. EIGHTIES BABIES differs only slightly from its immediate predecessor, the chart-topping LATE NIGHT SPECIAL, it contains enough in the way of effortlessly canny songwriting, seductive harmonies, and space-age production to make it one of the more rewarding R&B releases of 2008. The singles "Knockin' Boots `08" and "Cuddle Up" are particular standouts.
