Ladies Edition, Woman's World is the third studio album by American R&B group H-Town. It was released October 28, 1997 on Relativity Records. Ladies Edition is the group first release signed to the label, after releasing their first two albums on Luther Campbell's label, Luke Records. Hip-hop-influenced ballads and slow jams like "Ways to Treat a Woman," "A Natural Woman," and the single "They Like It Slow" have a more respectful tone, and the group is more conscious toward women with this album,.
The album's theme is making up for past transgressions with women. A theme conveyed in songs such as "Don't Sleep on the Female", "Julie Rain" (a sobering account of spousal abuse), and "Jezebel" (which describes a single mother who turns to prostitution and drugs). The album was dedicated to Nicole Brown Simpson and "all the women of the world". Twenty national women helplines were also listed on the back cover. This was the final album released in Dino's lifetime.
After the lead single "They Like It Slow" became a hit and peak to #12 on Billboard Top R&B Songs, Ladies Edition gained further popularity in the U.S., and the album quickly climbed to #12 on Billboard Top R&B Albums chart. H-Town scored their second highest charting album on the Billboard 200 at #53, their debut album, Fever for da Flavor peaked at #16 in 1993.
All songs written by Keven "Dino" Conner and Solomon "Shazam" Conner, unless noted.
