This audio companion to a Showtime special presents a kind of ladies' night of humor with comics Miss Laura Hayes from Martin, Adele Givens and Mo'nique from The Parkers, and Sommore from The Hughleys. Each runs through an uncensored, often hilarious litany of true-life pitfalls, from sex (Sommore's "Men Over 30"), drugs (Hayes's "Paranoid Roommate"), to politics and sex (Mo'nique's "The President"). None of the women mince words, so adults should heed the parental advisory sticker. The disc is padded with smooth R&B tracks from Gladys Knight and Patti Labelle, who pulls out all the stops for Diane Warren's slinky "Call Me Gone." The remix of "I Can Tell" by Monifah, featuring Murphy Lee of the St. Lunatics, is a solid hip-hop bomb that slyly incorporates the Waitresses' new wave anthem "I Know What Boys Like" into the groove. –Rob O'Connor

Featuring both hip-hop tracks and performance excerpts from the Spike Lee-directed concert film, this soundtrack CD should crack you up and make you move. Steve Harvey's routines are top notch. "Something Got to Be Wrong With Cuba" humorously points out America's cultural arrogance during the Elian Gonzalez affair, while "Church All the Time" features a foul-mouthed, church-going octogenarian. D.L. Hughley's very funny routines tend to have a classic black-humor theme: the differences between white people and black people. Hughley's "What Black Folks Do for Entertainment" works as both first-rate comedy and social commentary. The album also finds Cedric the Entertainer riffing on African-Americans playing sports like golf and tennis and Bernie Mac detailing his annoyance with his sister's kids. The five music tracks, which include work by various Cash Money artists, nicely break up the comedy portions of the disc. –Fred Cisterna
