Urban Renewal (tribute Album)

Urban Renewal is a tribute album to pop singer Phil Collins, released in 2001 in most European markets and in 2003 in the United States, containing re-produced remakes of Collins' songs by R&B and hip hop performers. Although the album itself was not a worldwide success, only charting in Germany at number three, individual singles from the album performed well in various markets.

The album spawned a number of singles, including "Another Day in Paradise" as performed by Brandy and Ray J and "In the Air Tonite" as performed by rapper Lil' Kim. A remake by Deborah Cox, "Something Happened on The Way to Heaven," was later released as a dance remix on her 2003 album, Remixed. It reached number one on the Billboard Dance Radio Airplay chart and peaked at ninety-five on the Billboard Hot 100.

In 2006, Q magazine listed Urban Renewal as No. 3 in their list of the 50 worst albums of all time.
