This Should Move Ya is the fourth album by the American hip hop/electro funk group Mantronix, released in 1990.[1] [2] It was the second Mantronix album released on Capitol Records. This Should Move Ya featured new members Bryce "Luvah" Wilson and Kurtis Mantronik’s cousin D.J. D, who joined founding member Mantronik following the departure of rapper MC Tee.[3]
"Got to Have Your Love" reached No. 4 on the British Hit Singles chart.[4]
The Calgary Herald wrote that most of the album "doesn't rise about mediocre, unenlightened rap music." The Chicago Tribune determined that Luvah "has a strong enough voice to cut through the technical wizardry." The Orange County Register deemed the album "an encyclopedia of current black-music styles."[5] The Dallas Morning News concluded that it "features plenty of the playful sound mixing that has become the hallmark of band leader Mantronik."[6]
