Granted that a seven-foot transvestite is a novelty act by definition. Nonetheless, this debut album by the talk show phenom is better--a lot better--and more substantial than it probably had a right to be. Of course, the titular hit is basically just a goof, but it's a good one, and over the rest of the album Ru proves to be more than just a pretty face; in fact, she's a real R&B singer in the grand tradition--check out "Supernatural," which has a great '70s Isaac Hayes/Curtis Mayfield feel, and her terrific cover of Chic's "Everybody Dance" if you doubt it.
