Not Just a Fad


Not Just a Fad is the second studio album by the American female rap group J.J. Fad. It was released in 1990 via Ruthless Records. The album spawned three singles: "We in the House", "Gold", and "Be Good ta Me". Neither the album nor the singles registered on any major music chart. Although the group never officially broke up, they have not released an album since Not Just a Fad.

Production

The album was primarily produced by DJ Yella. Dr. Dre was originally going to produce the album, but he wanted to push back the sessions; J.J. Fad decided not to wait on him.

Critical reception

The Los Angeles Times wrote: "This heretofore lightweight West Coast trio has always been pitted against Salt-N-Pepa, the New York-based rap unit whose style is far tougher and grittier. This time around, J.J. Fad's idea of fighting fire with fire is to come on like Luke Campbell's dream dates—though they do close the album by chastely thanking 'the man up above.'"
