Billboard June 1999
It's been four years since dance/pop act M People released its last U.S. album, "Bizarre Fruit." In that period, the British foursome - singer Heather Small, keyboardist Mike Pikering, bassist Paul Heard, and percussionist Shovell - released two albums ("Fresco" and "The Best Of M People") in the U.K. For those who missed these imports, Epic has created "Testify." While the 13-song collection is primarily a compendium of both British releases, it does offer something extra in the form of previously unavailable remixes of four classic M People recordings: "Sight For Sore Eyes," "Colour My Life," "How Can I Love You More," and "Moving On Up," which peaked at No. 34 on The Billboard Hot 100 in 1994. The album's title track, also its first single, is a lovely downtempo jam that is steeped in soulful rhythms and vocals - just perfect for warm summer nights.
