THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Monday, June 25, 2007

Sterling Simms feat. Jay-Z - Favorite Girl (full) - download
Although this song is from a mixtape and Sterling is crooning over Jay-Z’s popular “Song Cry,” there’s something that I really like about it. Although Sterling has already had two singles (”Jump Off” - which I absolutely hated, and “Nasty Girl” which I hoped would do really well), it seems like there’s been nothing heard about his project, which is supposed to be released on Def Jam. You may remember Simms from Jay-Z’s “Dig A Hole,” from his latest, Kingdom Come. I think he needs to kick out a single with Hov. Maybe that will put his project in the fastlane. It worked for Little Miss Sunshine…

T.I. - Respect This Hustle (full) - download
T.I. is really mad. No, I’m kidding. But, no, he is mad. “Respect This Hustle” finds T.I. arguing with himself at the beginning of the song. Which is okay, I guess, considering that’s the concept of the album, but I don’t know, it jus sounds sort of crazy upon first listen. I really enjoy the production of this song, though, it goes hard. It sounds like that chill club music that you can just groove to with your homies. Lyrically, I’m cool with it too. T.I. actually has one of my favorite flows.

Lloyd - Go Back (Ghetto Love) (full) - download
This is a track that I posted a snippet of long ago when “Street Love” had no release date. Then, I thought that it was making the album, but I guess this B. Cox joint was left off. Honestly, I don’t see why, it fits in with the overall feel of Lloyd’s sophomore set and I think it’s a nicely put together song. Not only does the feel of the song fit, but the content as well. Either way, I think this is a good outtake from the album. Check it out in CD quality.

LL Cool J feat. 50 Cent, Mobb Deep & Tony Yayo - Queens (full) - download
Well, first let me just start off by saying that as I got this song, Angel and I both agreed that LL Cool J needs to just be satisfied with being a rap icon and retire. Secondly, this song has way too many people on it. Not only that, but it sounds like everything else that 50 Cent has done in the past two years. Either way, “Queens” is the new single from LL Cool J’s upcoming album. Does he really need one of those? Seriously, his last album, “Todd Smith,” wasn’t “gutter” — why would he backslide to this?

This whole T.I. VS T.I.P thing is ridiculous. I don’t get the whole bi-polar or split personality thing. I would think his fans want T.I. the rapper not his other alto ego. The song is wack and sounds like every thing he’s put out.

Lloyd, his voice is so weird. He can sing sometimes but it’s only with some tracks like Get It Shawty. His voice reminds me of Fantasia’s sometimes.

50 and LL are so over. 50 is too overrated and LL is just a washed up rapper. Why the hell are all these beats by rappers sounding alike???

yeahyeah.

LL “JUST RETIRE!!!!!!!” U mad @ Def Jam for the budget on your last CD but you had 2 videos & the CD was WACK & U had a guest on every track and it sounded more R&B than Hip-Hop so don’t blame Jay & L.A. BLAME YOURSELF u sippin’ too much of that vitamin water cause u don’t have to be hard as hell anymore we know you not really in queens neither is Fiddy! stop confusing the youth!

28.

FUCK THAT THAT NIGGA TI

Monday, June 25, 2007 /

uh ti’s king cd was hot garbage and his new cd ti vs tip is hot garbage when are yall people going to open your ears and realize that ti is just an average rapper garbage at best he’s on the same level as gucci mane,young joc,young jeezy,and young dro hell ti can’t even fucking freestyle and never was the king of the south and as for ludacris ti gone make luda beat the shit out of him he done already dissed luda twice talking about he should of won the grammy instead of luda and at the summer jam in atlanta ti yelled to the crowed i didn’t move to atlanta when i was thirteen like i said he done already dissed luda twice i guess ti forgot what luda did to him on stomp and war with god luda destroyed ti and what did ti do not a damn thang so to make a long story short ti is just asking for luda to get on his ass

I like how LL was all like “I don’t need to curse to sell records!” Bull*^%&

As soon as that nucca got on a track w/ 50, his ass went back to the gutter! But the problem with that is…the gutter left his ass a long time ago! What happenned L?

The Lloyd and Sterling tracks are really nice. I mite just have to get use to the TI track but still wont have that on replay. Totally ignored the LL track-i miss his luv tracks tho, yall kno Freeze was hot-but i swear to Jah I have never listened to a song that I know Tony Yayo’s in so that just killed it for me. Plus Gorilla face been makin pure garbage lately anyway. He need to wrk on that disaster that produced Amusement park and let LL get his luv grooves back.

31.

Monday, June 25, 2007 /

I like Sterling Simms but I have to give him a thumbs down on that track just because of the over sampling( how many times we gonna hear that sample?) Come on Jay-z. I know they are on your label but let them do a track alone.

32.

Mos-Def

Monday, June 25, 2007 /

Yep I’m just as mad at LL for hooking up with those wannabe gangsters G-Unit to represent himself as “gutter” as everyone else seems to be. Not because he’s fake because look at “Who Shot Ya (Remix)”, that’s still one of the best gutter tracks that exists. he point is, e could have just as easily hooked up with some credible rappers like Method Man, M.O.P. or Pharoahe Monch who really are “gutter” (whatever that may be) and actually have talent too. I’m annoyed he hooked up with damn G-Unit to do it when he could work with talented rappers and probably have Def Jam save money too!

Lloyd Songs is fuckin’ fiyah….

LL, disappointing, but it’s his last album “Exist 13″, and Queens will eat this shit up.

Sterling Sims, no comment, Jay give it up, and stay under Rihanna’s umbrella

T.I., album looking out to be pretty damn good.

Only thing im feeling is the Lloyd track, the TI one is supposedly deleted. The LL is blah, why he tryna` go hard with G-unit when the hype on G-unit is over? The track reminds me of New York, New York except it isn’t as catchy or hot. The Sterling Simms one, wasn’t feeling….song cry should have never been sampled.

i agree with #28 somewhat cuz i do think T.I. can rap..but Luda did put it out there on Stomp (Young Bucks track)..that was crazii but i dont think they should be beefing no more. They are two successful men, especially Ludacris, i think he is beyond the “diss” stage…thats soo childish anyway…why would t.i. even wanna start. Personally i love T.I. but i still feel he has a lot to prove not in the black community just mainstream, thatz something i feel Ludacris has already done, that could be one of the reasons he didnt win a grammy. Plus if u already supposedly tha “King”and that the streets luv you why knock someones shine for gettin theirs (referring to his response on Luda’s win over his album)??

and Lloyd’s track was good. iluv his voice. Sterling’s track was good but it would have been nicer if Jay would’ve have updated the verse to that original song but other than that it was good. and now a dayz im starting to feel bad for these new artists gettin signed to Def Jam. i mean every time i go on the site its always ALWAYZ! a new album coming out from some unheard of artist. Half the artists…no most of them are unheard of. I hope sterling’s album is different…but if i check back and see his album coming out in july..than i’ll kno tha deal. and i couldnt hear the t.i. track either

@ # 3, your a true hater.

LL still holds the mic…he just needs to stop trying to act hood and keep rapping about love.

Llyod, IMO, has the best male rnb album of 2007.

sterling simms…look like the other dude that was post on here a few days ago, with the curly afro.The song is , just ok, but he does have a nice voice.

Foxy, Mike Jones feat Latoya, Candy from the group xscape- has formed a new group called “peach candy”, Sisqo has a new album coming out and from the songs i’ve heard so far-it sucks. lil mama has a new track out. Olivia has another track out” missing u” it’s nice, though she sounds to much like Ciara, but with a stronger vocal range…… If people want to hear these tracks and more, tell me how to post a link on here.

Thanks Brian for the Lloyd track! I love me some Lloyd. He’s fine and the track is on fire. Lloyd will always get respect from me especially after the performance he pulled off at the Apple store in San Francisco for Black Music Month on June 5, 2007. Lloyd’s flight was late, he battled SF commuter traffic (if you live in the Bay Area you know what that’s like), and still managed to put on a good show (even if it was only about 15 - 20 minutes). The fact that Lloyd showed up, under those circumstances, proves his love and appreciation for the fans. Big Up to Lloyd!

As for the other artist, who cares. Their “songs” are considered a waste for my computer hard drive. (notice how the word songs is in quotes)

Sterling Simms - Pretty Good Song. Nice vocals.
Lloyd - I love his CD. This song would have fit in nice with the flow of Street Love.
LL Cool J - I love him and wish he would just retire. GOSH! 50 doing the same thing he accused Ja Rule of…….SANGIN!
