The soundtrack to
Eddie Murphy's comedy Boomerang is actually better than the film itself. A fair portion of the record is devoted to mediocre material, but most of the album is first-rate contemporary urban soul, hip-hop, and new jack swing, highlighted by a number of massive hit singles, including
Boyz II Men's "End of the Road,"
P.M. Dawn's "I'd Die Without You,"
Babyface and
Toni Braxton's "Give U My Heart," and
Toni Braxton's "Love Shoulda Brought You Home." ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
