About Public Announcement
The onetime backing group for R. Kelly, Chicago's Public Announcement made their solo debut in 1998 with All Work, No Play, scoring a Top Ten hit with the single "Body Bumpin' Yippie-Yi-Yo." Kelly moved on to contemporary R&B stardom while the group remained in semi-retirement until late 2000 when they released their sophomore album, Don't Hold Back. Their third album, When the Smoke Clears, appeared in 2005 on the Boss Entertainment label. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide

Another Way To Die Alicia Keys & Jack White |
| When Jack White and Alicia Keys were asked to write the theme to the latest Bond film, Quantum of Solace, it wasnt exactly the straightforward task you might imagine. Not only did they have to take the place of a much anticipated effort from Amy Winehouse, which predictably never materialised, they were also faced with the challenge of writing a theme for one of the most awkwardly phrased Bond films of all time. Quantum of Solace hardly rolls off the tongue after all! The result is a workmanlike effort that draws on many trademark elements of both the Bond franchise and the musicians musical repertoire. With snarling guitar riffs from Jack, overblown vocals and twinkling piano from Alicia and a few orchestral style stabs that hark back to the original John Barry theme, Another Way to Die is equal but no better than the sum of its parts. Despite popjustice.com branding the track the worst Bond theme of all time this song will fulfil its design brief when the credits to the film are rolling as it has enough OTT touches to make the expensive graphics look cool. | |
