dbo:abstract
  • Urban Renewal est un album de reprises en hommage au chanteur/compositeur anglais Phil Collins, sorti en Europe en 2001. Les reprises sont faites par des chanteurs du hip-hop et surtout du R'n'B. Le premier extrait est la reprise du titre Another Day In Paradise par Brandy et son frère Ray J. Le single sort en mars 2001. Phil Collins n'apparaît sur aucun titre excepté sur le deuxième single, la reprise de In the Air Tonightpar Lil' Kim, où apparaît son refrain original. Ce second extrait est commercialisé en juin 2001. Ce projet n'e connait pas un énorme succès commercial, excepté peut-être une place de 3e en Allemagne. Cependant les différents singles se sont assez bien vendu, notamment le 1er. (fr)
  • Urban Renewal is a tribute album to singer Phil Collins, released in February 2001 in most European markets and in the United States on February 25, 2003, containing remakes of his songs by R&B and hip hop performers. Collins remarked: "We all think black R&B artists know what they're talking about. The first time I was aware of it was when I watched a documentary on Ice-T. This smug UK journalist looking at his record collection said, 'What's with all the Phil Collins stuff?' He said, 'Don't mess with my Phil.' I remember thinking, 'My God!' You feel like ringing people up and saying, 'Are you watching this?!'" Although the album itself was not a worldwide success, only charting in Germany at number three, individual singles from the album performed well in various markets, including "Another Day in Paradise" as performed by Brandy and Ray J and "In the Air Tonite" as performed by rapper Lil' Kim. A remake by Deborah Cox, "Something Happened on the Way to Heaven", was later released as a dance remix on her 2003 album, Remixed. It reached number one on the Billboard Dance Radio Airplay chart and peaked at 95 on the Billboard Hot 100. The chief pop and rock critic of The Guardian, Alexis Petridis, described it as a "horrid and inexplicable album of hip-hop and R&B covers" with the "solitary redeeming track" being the version of "Sussudio". In 2006, Q magazine listed Urban Renewal as No. 3 in their list of the 50 worst albums ever. (en)
