THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

NOTE: What’s up ya’ll. I know it’s been a while, but I have been having some internet/computer problems, but everything’s all cleared up now. Also, as you know, the semester is ending and I’m trying to bang out these papers, finals and art projects. But I love CL, I love Angel & Tianna and I’m glad to be back. We’ve got some special stuff coming for you this summer. Thanks for your patience! I appreciate all the e-mails asking where I’ve been. You guys are the best.

Rihanna feat. Lil’ Mama – Umbrella (Remix) (full) – download
So, everyone knows that Rihanna is nobody’s singer, however, it seems as though people are loving Rihanna’s new single, “Umbrella,” which originally features Jay-Z. I can’t say that this remix, which features Lil Mama, who is best known for her annoyingly addictive single, “Lip Gloss” improves upon the song or doesn’t do it any justice at all. In any event, Rihanna is trying to let the game now that she’s a main-stay. The girl has put out 3 albums in three years.

Fabolous feat. Rihanna – First Time (full) – download
I think what I like about Fabolous is his consistancy. He always gives you a single with a female vocalist, and usually it’s a female vocalist who’s about to go really hard for that season. Remember his songs with Lil’ Mo? And then with Ashanti, then he replaced her with Tamia? Well, now he’s trying the same formula with Rihanna, and luckily, people are loving her right now. If I can say anything about Fabolous, he definitely knows how to make a good move as far as putting out the right single.

Mya feat. Lil’ Wayne – Lock U Down (Video Version) (full) – download
I posted the Scott Storch-produced “Lock U Down” months ago, and hated it then. To me, it sounds like Mya’s sound has not progressed at all. It was a good move to put Lil’ Wayne on the track, but it just sounds like something from any of her other albums. The video does do something for the song, though. I just wish that Mya would take her music somewhere else and continue to get her dance on. She’s a fabulous dancer. I feel like she’s been doing the same thing since “Movin’ On.”

Tiffany Evans feat. Ciara – Promise Ring (full) – download
Remember little Tiffany Evans from Tyler Perry’s “Diary of A Mad Black Woman?” Well, she’s sung songs for Disney, so I guess she’s trying to make a transition into a real artist. If you know me, you know I love this kind of old school dance music. Not only that, but I love when kids make age-appropriate music. Tiffany is 15 years old, and has a pretty nice voice. I can definitely see kids liking this. And what’s strange is, I could definitely see myself dancing to this… in somebody’s club. But I guess that’s not the song’s purpose. Shout out to The Clutch, again!

  4. Im lovin that Promise Ring track….

    Umbrella original is MUCH better

    Lock U Down I like but its gettin old

    The Fabo & Rihanna collab is kool

  5. Shy Libra

    Umbrella remix was pretty good I liked it BUT I like the original with Jay better.

    Fabolous song wih Rihanna was pretty good too I liked it.

    Tiffany Evans and Ciara’s song honestly was kinda whack Tiffany does have vocals BUT the song sounded like something I heard before, boring it could’ve had a better sound to it.

    Lock U Down was hot I love the lyrics what she’s saying is hot. I happened to really like it I feel that it is something different that Mya did and for all ya’ll saying Mya can’t sing she needs to step up her vocal game yous should do some research before you have anything to say. Mya can blow listen to her slow jams “My First Night With You”, “Fear Of Flying”, and “You” are just a little handful of songs she killed it in so please stop talking about someone who got their vocal game on point criticize someone else who needs singing improvement like Ciara and Rihanna.

  6. Rizz

    anybody else otha then me notice how it’s becoming a pattern to eitha have ciara, lil wayne, jay-z, or r. kelly in your song now??

  7. Twinsxx

  8. @ 122 I heard that track…fiyah

  9. Beauty

    WHY DO ALL CIARA`SONGS HAVE THAT 1-STEP-2 STEP BEAT?

  10. Amethyst

    What a dumb ass you are! 30 years old listening to mutha f’ing Ciara! No wonder music is in such a hole when we got dummies like you buying badly written music from an “singer” who can’t sing for shit! Dancing is not considered a talent on the radio.

  19. knockkey

    PROMISE REMIX WAS HOT BUT NO WHERE BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL. EVER REMIX CIARA DOES SHE LET THE ARTIST DO THEM BECAUSE SHE IS FOOTING THE BILL. WHY PAY FOR A REMIX IF YOU NOT GOING TO LET ANOTHER ARTIST SHINE?SHE NOT AFRAID TO SHARE THE SPOT LIGHT.ANYHOW IT CIARA TIME,SO IF YOU THINK YOU CAN DO BETTER JAZZE PHA HAS UNSIGNED TALAENT ON MYSPACE,SO GO FOR IT. NOBODY IN THE GAME CAN OUT ENTERTAIN CIARA,SHE HAS THAT ON LOCK DOWN.

  20. knockkey

    CIARA FANS AGE RANGE FROM 2- 80 SO THE ONLY DUMBASS IS YOU FOR ASSUMING.

  21. sssssssssssssssssssss

    @140

    80 year olds aren’t retarded like you…they know real music and real talent when they hear it, they grew up on Etta James, Billie Holiday, Roy Ayers, Herbie Hancock, and Stevie Wonder.

    So I ask you. What self respecting 80 year old would listen to a MAN who sings about HIS “Goodies,” HIS “Oh,” “1, 2 Step” and “Get In, Fit In” (Whatever the fuck that stupid sh!t means)…?

  22. knockkey

    SO IT LOOKS AS THOUGH YOU ARE A FAN AFTER ALL. YOU KNOW THE SONGS AND LYRICS I AINT MAD AT YOU.

  23. SAY WHAT:0

    Tiffany Evans song is nice now i can jam to dat. (i just wish it was a bit faster though.) I thought Keke Palmer’s the one who was in the Tyler Perry movie. Tiffany Evan’s, i just member her off of the Star show i didn’t know she act.

    The umbrella song has somethin bout it that makes me like it, i belive it’s the chourus, it’s hot. I like can deal with the Fablous n Riri song. But the Mya song, TRASH. She needs to go to new songwritters or somethin cause her musci has not been good since, “My love is like whoa.”

  24. i`m really feelin fab`sz joint. i can never get enough of him. i love hiz flow.

    i could do w/o tha umbrella ishh buht lil mama did her thing on it so itsz like wutev.

    i`m feelin mya`s lock u down. i luv it.

    `&+ i`m not feelin` that promise ring song itsz jus 2 juvie 4 me

  25. Aaliyonce

    I know I might get blasted for this, but I mean this as a compliment. Tiffany sounds like Beyonce earlier on in the day.

  26. Anthony

    Home girls was born in 92, she fourteen still. I think them fast ass girls i went to middle school wit back in the day woulda benefited from a song talkin bout a PROMISE RING. thats a big deal. She can sing for sure.

  27. Talisa J

    SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, you need to shut ya damn mouth before I do it for ya bitch ass! Always got to hate and shit! She ain’t a man, so get the fuck over it! You probably the damn transsexual, for all we know!

  28. Junior in Jamaica

    On Mya:

    People, it’s a shame that you guys have no idea of Mya’s true vocal abilities. There is something called versatility. While I agree Mya’s sound is softer than most, the girl has SANG on other tracks.

    You can’t expect the in your face type singing all the time and it does not suit every type of song. I have heard Mya SANG more than she does on Lock U Down.

    You can’t judge her ability blindly unless you’ve been truly exposed to all her work. I have heard renditions she has done on her albums, soundtracks and commercials and not to mention in her live shows (including AOL Live Sessions, Award Shows and Tours). The girl has a good voice. Just that, Lock U Down does not display that. In my opinion, the “sincere song” as she put it, never called for the SANGING you guys talk about.

    Rihanna is growing, that much is true. I love the Remix. I think Lil’ Mama is here to stay. Her flow is POPPIN’! LOL.

    Tifanny’s voice is good for her age but can do with some polishing (just as Rihanna’s).

    The Fabolous song is mellow but not super hot. Am not hating on it though.

    All in all, I like all the songs presented today.

  29. Junior in Jamaica

    And I concur with Dre. On all of Mya’s albums, she has shown growth. The ignorant shall judge her only based on her released singles, but the others who know better won’t.

  30. j

    TIFANY CAN REALLY SING SHE’S A LOT BETTER THEN DAT DAMN CIARA

    THE UMBRELLA REMIX IS GOOD

    THE FABOLOUS SONG IS OK IS NOT SOMETHING THAT I WOULD LISTEN TO

    MYA’S SONG IS GOOD, IT SOUNDS LIKE A BIG HIT FOR HER

  31. The Songs will Do good depending on wat the audience want sto here but good luck to all of dem…….and
    who is Tiffany?????

  32. CSUgirl

    Okay #23! I knew I remembered her from somewhere. Tiffany use to be poor and she and family use to live in their car. I’m so proud of her! I hope she goes far.

  33. CSUgirl

    And I’m so sick of people talk sh@t about Ciara. I went to school with her and we were in the same marketing club. anyway we were out in the hallway and ciara was blowin dem vocals. I’ll agree that she hasnt shown that on her songs, but she can mos def sing! Ya’ll the girl can sing 4 real. I know everyone has their own opinions, but damn stop bring her down and calling hera man and sh@t. I had to say that, sorry.

  34. knockkey

    THEY KNOW CIARA CAN SING,PROMISE WAS KNOW FUCKING JOKE. (MY LOVE ) WHICH IS HER NEXT SINGLE WILL DISPLAY MORE OF HER VOCAL. CIARA HAVE HATERS BECAUSE SHE IS A PERFECTION. SHE DOESN’T JUST SING AND DANCE,LIKE SOMEONE STATED. CIARA HAS ALL HER LIFE GOAL WRITTEN DOWN. SHE WANT TO BULID HER RECORD LABEL, BEGIN SETTING UP CHARITY, OPEN A FOOD BUSINEES, CLOTHING LINE, HAIR SALON,AND MOST IMPORTANT ONE TO BECOME A BILLIONAIRE SO SHE CAN DO WHAT EVER.

  35. atreyou

    I’m scared to download Rhinna’s remix, since I hate the original. Tiffany can sing her ass off. Thanks Brian, oh yeah can you cotinue to use supload, I’m unable to download from zshare.

  36. Misi Dat Chick

    Who in the hell gave Lil’ Mama a record deal? Haven’t we had enough “Lil’” in the game? Lil’ Kim, Lil’ Wayne, Lil’ Bow Wow, Lil’ Jon, Lil’ Boosie, Lil’ Flip, Lil’ Scrappy. Don’t they have good enough A&R and marketing to let these damn fools know that there are enough Lil’s and Young’s in the business. Speaking of Young’s this heffa sounds like a more annoying version of that Young B heffa. Are our children really so deprived that they are excited to sing and listen to songs about Chicken Noodle Soup, Soda, and for God’s sake Lip Gloss?!?!? I think not! Everything else on the post bothers me less. Love Fab and Mya!

  37. reuneety

    I DONT LIKE RIHANNA’S MUSIC. ITS NOT IN MY TASTE. JAY SOUGHT AFTER HER BECAUSE HER VOICE AND SOUND WOULD APPEAL TO THE WHITE AUDIENCE. SHE’S NOT R AND B, NOT IN THE LEAST BIT! SHE DOESNT SING THAT WELL TO ME. I’M NOT RUNNING OUT TO STORE TO BUY HER ALBUM! I WOULDNT EVEN BUMP IT IN MY CAR. MY FRIENDS WOULD LAUGH AT ME IF THEY HEARD ME PLAYING RIHANNA’S MUSIC. RIHANNA MUSIC I DONT THINK APPEAL TO MOST BLACK PEOPLE. JAY KNOWS THAT MOST WHITE KIDS BUY MUSIC. AND THEY WILL BUY RIHANNA’S AND THAT HE CAN MAKE ALOT OF MONEY. HE KNOWS THAT MOST AFRICAN AMERICAN WILL NOT BUY HER MUSIC! HE’S THINKING ABOUT CHA-CHING!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.

  38. Naomi
