CRITIC'S CHOICE

R&B-POP
If Amy Winehouse hadn't already released Back to Black last year, The Stoop—another modern spin on '60s soul with a hip-hop attitude—might have been truly groundbreaking. Still, Little Jackie—a collaboration between singer Imani Coppola and programmer Adam Pallin—has come up with something special. They pour on the sass—and the brass—on lyrically wicked girl-group throwbacks like "28 Butts," "LOL" and "Cryin for the Queen," which takes aim at La Amy: "There's a recall on all imports who behavin' all out of sorts." Ouch.
