UNSIGNED ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: CHERRI V
Thursday, August 23, 2007

Cherri V - Between the Sheets
When Angel passed this girl along to me to hear the music, I was very intrigued. At first by her pictures and then when I got into some of the tracks, I was really liking what I heard. Cherri V is well on her way to becoming the next sensation in the UK. Her music is a great blend of Rock, Pop, and R&B.
In 2006, Cherri was a member of the girl group Trinity Stone and they were signed to Sony/BMG. The group soon disbanded, but Cherri was fortunate enough to travel to many places across the globe and learn about the industry, allowing her to discover where she could now hold a spot in it. Right now, she’s recording her album at her own pace and is gaining as much performance exposure in the UK as possible.
Cherri V - Until the Sun Comes Up
For more information on Cherri V, make sure you check her out on MySpace and show her some love. Make sure you add her as a friend, give her some props and tell her that CL sent you!

I like Cherri V. I’m not a huge fan of the song but I can tell that this is one of those songs that grows on you. I think the song might sound better as a slow song not as a slow fast song. But I think she has lots of potential.

Never mind. Went to her myspace page. While listening to a some of her songs the first person came to mind was Rhianna. She has a song “Fast Car”, what came to mind, Shut up and Drive.”
I wish her great success.

That second song does sound like an RnB remix of Smells Like Teen Spirit (was that the whole point?) *shrugs*

She will have to come out with some banging videos otherwise the UK aint gonna pay much attention to this. They will probably like the second song much better, yeah I can see it now her little budget video on channel U. LOL.

@30- I was thinking Amerie on the second song, too. If you speed up the track, it’s 1 Thing. They’re not foolin anybody. LOL. That said, they could’ve put a little more thought into the writing. 60 seconds of “until the sun comes up” gets quite annoying.
Although she sounds okay, it’s nothing all that special. Her style is just in-tune-head-voice. Just a stronger Janet-esque or Ciara-esque voice.

LOL! You guys are funny! I can see what some of you are saying about Cherri being similar to Rhianna but in all fairness Cherri V was doing her thing with Trinity Stone way before we knew about Rhianna over here in UK so… Rhianna is like Cherri V!
‘Before the song comes up’ may also have a slight resemblence to the drum beat in ‘One Thing’ by Amerie…is that such a crime? Why do you have to make it a negative?? If you all went to see Cherri V live you couldnt really compare her to Amerie and Rhianna. The girl can dance her ass off and sing like a bird whilst doing it. I can’t believe in an artists untill I see them live…and Cherri has it all. Please do check her myspace, go see her live…then come back and edit your comments!
Im out!

I love it, I really love her voice and I love the pop sound. Of course black people are not susceptible to different varities or style of music. If she’s not doing a thousand runs then oh she can’t sing. I’m sure she will garner a huge white/ pop alternative fan base when she starts to really come up.

The UK gives us Amy Winehouse and Joss Stone, which is all good cuz I love em. But this chick? Nah, you’ll be taking two steps back with this bland noise.

Someone like Solange Knowles I can see doing this song changing up the beat a little and making it a real hit. The beginning of the song is reminiscent of Monica’s Angel of Mine.

Well…the first song is cool, i like the second one better. I decided to go on her page and I like the song “Fast Car” more than anything, yeah yeah…one might think of ’shut up and drive’ but the song is waaaay far from that concept. And hey she said she sang with Kelis and her live band. I love Kelis so that gives her some cool points. She just needs better production and that’s it. Hope she makes it because I’m looking to hear more from her.

Okay, the harshness of my intial comment aside “until the sun comes up” isn’t so bad, but that’s more to do with the Nirvana hijack. Her other stuff fails to impress me.

Shes doing it, i like.
But i wouldnt really point at her so much about the Rich Harrison (Amerie) sounding backing track (2nd track), that producer (H-money) seems to bite alot of producers swaggers if its not Neptunes, its Timbo, etc. which is odd because im sure he’d do well with more original sounding stuff.
At least the singing didn’t sound like amerie’s.
Good looking CL

One thing I like about black Britisth acts is that for the most part, they don’t seem one-dimelsional like their American counterparts. But sadly, Amy Winehouse does make this chick sound like a retard.
