New Music...

Say... this one is a SLOW JAM playlist MUST.  D&D add a little more flavor to this underground hit by getting the voice, TANK to come and grace the track with his abilities.  And as soon as he comes in... it's a vocal WRAP!!!  Check it out...



Shanell has a winner with this track, "Last Time".  And she's featuring one of my favorite collaboration artists, Busta Rhymes.   You know this joint goes hard, so I have nothing else to say... just listen.

New Music 10/29/2012

I have come across some good music lately and decided to share.


Usually, I wouldn't post this song - but I like it.  I think Q is doing some good singing on this, and it suits the mood that he's trying to create.  I wish that he would link up with a production team and really produce some music for other artists.  I think he's pigeonholed himself and just can't get out of the Atlanta circuit for whatever reason, but I definitely would like to see some greater work from him.  Here you guys go, "Yes"



I enjoy Daley's music.  If you have not gotten a chance to pick up his EP, you need to.  He is an incredibly talented artist, who manages to link up with other artists of his artistic caliber! He and Marsha Ambrosius KILLED "Alone Together", and now and Jessie J have linked up to produce this hit, "Remember Me".  The energy in this song is nothing short of amazing and captivating.  The visuals are a little "outta there" but I think it is creative, nonetheless. (Shoutout to our friends over at ThisisRnB.com for posting this one!)


Willie Taylor is back at it too.  I told you all a few weeks ago about his new mixtape, and this song is just one of the joints off that.  He teamed up with vocal giant and iconic riff master Mr. TANK on this track.  Hit play, and let the music speak to you.

New Music... 10/25/2012

I apparently missed this one back in August... however Wish has a new mixtape. Her vocals bear a striking resemblance to Keri Hilson (and so do her looks), but this is a decent mixtape AND if you like "One Night Stand" feat Chris Brown by Keri Hilson, you will like this project. Titled, "Me Against Her", Wish will make you groove this fall.

Upon first hearing this joint, I was hooked into it.  I like this side of Chrisette Michele... it seems carefree and plays to her vocal strengths.  It's almost trance like... and it's featuring 2CHAINZ!!!




... one more something to check out.  This cat Rashad has a nice lil' mixtape out  He is definitely not new to the game.  Having been in the game for over a decade, Rashad has made a name for himself behind-the-scenes.  Finding his new stardom and his own niche in R&B music, he's come out with his own EP.  Download and streme his project with my friends at Singersroom.com

New Music... 10/19/2012

Brandy Fans and STANS... this track needs no introduction.  "Scared of Beautiful".



Lloyd ain't playing around with this... sounds like he is coming with some throwback flavor too.  He has a new project due out soon for the mixtape heads.  Definitely consider coppin' this project!




This was JUST done last night.  And it gave me goosebumps... AHHHHH!!! India.arie sends some extra special love to Brandy by singing "He Is"... I believe Brandy comes in on the last few seconds of this joint and just makes my day.  Hope you enjoy!!

Old Drafts that hadn't posted... 10/17

It's not everyday that people put me on new artists, but I definitely got put on a new artist (Shoutout to my bro Will!) ... this Lucille Ghatti... she's the truth.  I had encountered some of her work previously, but I had no idea that she had such creative genius!  It's refreshing to see the picture that an artist lyrically and musically paints.  I definitely was impressed with her work, and even more impressed with the liberty - yet deliberateness in which she let us experience what she has to offer.  If you are looking for a mixtape to download, I highly recommend, getting this "High Grade 2: In the Sky with Diamonds".

Lucille Ghatti - "High Grade 2: In the Sky with Diamonds"

It is official... if you haven't seen the new video treatment for Ciara's "I'm Sorry", you need to.  In fact, I'm posting the link to it.  But beyond the video... I think that this is a great song for her, and especially so since she hasn't put anything out in awhile.  I think she has more versatility in this song becuase she's not giving you the consistent one-note, one-dimensional dance hit.  She's actually showing some passion and the lyrics composition is good too.  I think that her personal connection with the song makes it a win for me, and I think that you would like it too.  Check it out below...



This song is a few months old... but Angie Stone gave us more reasons to love her in her latest song, "Do What U Gotta Do".   I think this song will also be on the R&B Divas album.  But check it out... I know I love the acoustic groove she got going in this one.  Makes me just bob my head...

New Music 10/08/2012

It has been awhile since I've blogged about new music.  However, I have to share this one with you.  Marcus Canty, who I've blogged about before has new music that is floating around the internet... and I like the vibe of this song.  He sounds a bit like Mario -- but still, this song goes!




Yeah... and this video - although you all have already probably seen it... is Faith Evans SINGING DOWN!!  Love her and glad that she's made a triumphant return back to music.




Another repeat artist on this blog is making great music.  Kameron Corvet is just a voice that you can't go without hearing.  He just has that "it" factor, and all of his music that I've heard is substantive and worth rotation in your nearest mp3 playing device.  Check out this new joint he has below!




Sure she might be dramatized a little bit, and his voice may not be your "cup of tea", but this duet with Bobby V. and K. Michelle rocks.  Whatever the circumstances surrounding her career halt a few years back, definitely is being used to propel her towards a bright future.  Bobby may have won with this track, because it makes me think of Sunday Night Slow Jams back in the late 90's and early 2000s... if you don't believe it, just listen to this song, "Put It In".




And... anybody that knows me well... knows that I fully support and am rooting for THE Dawn Richard.  I like this joint, "86".  I love how she is able to blend that 80's pop sound with intricately woven harmonies reminiscent (while paying homage to) Brandy of the Rodney Jerkins era.





Well... last but definitely not least... I just happened upon this underrated and under-marketed mixtape that some of you may be interested in.  Remember Willie from Day26?  Well he has a new mixtape... if you don't have the 1st one, you might wanna pick it up.  He has some decent stuff on there.  The lyrical content reminds me of R. Kelly - during and just after - Public Announcement.  Straight and to the point... you know it's an after-the-club scenario. In any case, check out this new project.  Perhaps post-Day26 this dude can do something!
