THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Friday, October 12, 2007

Alicia Keys feat. Cassidy - No One (Remix) (full) - listen
The more I heard the song, the more it grew on me. And now here’s a remix with Cassidy, who is ready to release a new album as well. This remix doesn’t differ too much from the original version of the song. I will say though, that I’m digging the new image Alicia went for this time around on the new album. She looks absolutely amazing in the new video. I am eager to hear some more material. There have been some live tracks floating around, but I always like to hear what Allcia’s music sounds like from the studio.

Cassie - In Love With the DJ (full) - listen
I posted a snippet of this song a couple of weeks ago, and I actually was kind of feeling it. Although I was expecting a little more from the full version, I still think it’s a cute song. I think what I like most about this song is the lyrics, more so in the verse than the chorus. Like on most of Cassie’s songs, she pretty much sings the same note the whole way through. The last few songs that I’ve posted from Cassie are to appear on her new album, due out sometime soon, tentatively titled The Return.

Britney Spears - Radar (full) - listen
The homies from The Clutch really put it down on this song for Britney. I am very excited for Blackout now that I’ve heard a large portion of the material that was recorded for those sessions. Although Britney may not have it all together, the team of producers and writers chosen for the project are stellar. Jive must be feeling a little confident too, because they moved Britney’s album release date up from the November to the 30th of October. But rumor also has it that they don’t want to compete with Celine Dion’s album being released on that November date.

Cherish - If He Ask Me (full) - listen
What makes this so funny to me is the fact that all of Cherish’s material runs together for me. This sounds like something they did on their first album, Unappreciated. I can’t tell the different between their new material and their old stuff. I mean, I guess it says that they’re consisted but it doesn’t tell me that there’s been any growth. But then again, I’m not quite positive of what it was that I was expecting. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Look out for Cherish’s new album in February of ‘08.

I agree meagan! britney doesnt exactly fit the target audience. NEXT! But don’t get me wrong, I wish her the best and i think the media is doing her dirty but I’d see her on People.com

Alicia - I can’t believe she tried to turn that song into a club banger! lol Some songs should stay as is.

Cassie - I’ll pass on listening!

Brittany - Now that she don’t have the kids I’mma need her to get back in the studio faithfully and come with some fire. Something off to me about the song.

Cherish - Still not sold on them yet. But, they very first single was the joint!

I can see how the people that worked on Britney’s album are more applicable to our target audience….the individuals she’s worked with have a pretty heavy revelance to what’s ‘popular’ now….

Nonetheless…The Clutch are a brilliant entity of writers…I heard Candice Nelson did most of the writing on that one (Radar)

Why does cassie still have a recording contract, diddy should have let her out of that contract after the 106 and park incident.

Like Alicia Keys and Cassidy.

Cassie gets a Whatever and a Sour Face

Britney gets a One Eye Brow look from me, the song has slight potential.

And oh my goodness Cherish gets the Ultimate Sour Face from me, the type of sour face that you can only make if you were eating a cold lemon,with salt on it, while you lip was busted, and had a tooth ache. Ughhhh that song sucked.

16.

uhm

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

britney is more pop than usual. this will be #1 again.

alicia may need to cook up something else before the album comes out. i really don’t like the new song.

17.

☆Megan☆

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

10. But it’s still Britney Spears

It’s a lot of producers that would fit in our target that produced rock and country stars. But they won’t be on this site.

But it’s not that serious I guess.

Alicia Keys and Cassidy…I hate “No One” and I do believe that song is mad overrated. The remix just puts out another dumb beat and a mixtape rapper.

Cassie…just stay 100 yards away from the nearest studio!

Britney Spears…she needs to be at home taking care of her 9 kids and stay in front of the tv eating cheetoes instead of singing (or non singing). Brian needs to seriously lay off the whole The Clutch thing…damn! We get it! You like the Clutch, and they don’t always put out quality songs (80% Good: 20% Bad)

Cherish…stay your a$$es in Atlanta where you belong!

24.

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

i think britneys date was moved up so she wouldnt have to compete with alicia keys. those albums were dropping on the same date. smart move because id never give britney a listen until she gets it together. i can’t respect her then i cant respect her work. it’s whatever.

i like the other alicia keys remix better. i forget who is on it but definitely not as “popular” as cassidy. cassidy basically got showed up.

cassie and.. lol i dont feel like scrolling up to remember that groups name - pass.

@ 23
she only has two kids.
hmmmm…wow people are hostile about brit and cassie………lol
anyhoo My question is why are remixes the same as the original song? Is just throwing a rhyme or another singer on the SAME song classfies as a remix…..I just dont think they are remixes *sigh* maybe I should ask Diddy since he invented the remix.

32.

Cassies music is mean teen queen music its so teenage……. She has love from Ryan Leslie so hey shes set like so many non singers.
Sit and look nice Rhianna,Cassie,to start it all off and the list goes on……..

Britney hasn’t had a hit song in years Gimmie More and Baby One More time are her ONLY songs to hit top 5 on BB hot 100. Her songs don’t do well at all. Britney fans are enablers their more concerned about her album than her getting her act together which is more important.

34.

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

Ok, first of all I’m a Huge fan A-Keys every since I seen her perform on 106 park back in the day. The remix is ok, not one of the best! Cassidy does not fit good with it..they should’ve had Common or even Jay Z. Should help promote ..drink and two-step! NO MATTER.>>>NO MATTER what anyone says if you know real R&B you know ALICIA can sign out of a straw and still be FIERCE!!! THIS SONG IS BEST FEMALE R&B TRACK OF THE YEAR..EVERYTHING ELESE…..SUCKS!!! SORRY…

I’m a Britney fan. Get at me for that, but I’m a fan. Ever since …Baby One More Time.
But something about Radar is slightly off; I like it, but something’s just off. And it sounds familiar. Like an OutKast song… I think the one for their movie Idlewild.

Cassie’s song irks me.

The Cherish song actually does sound like something off Unnappreciated.

I don’t like remixes so I didn’t listen to the Alicia Keys one.

37.

:MJ:

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

Brian, that Cherish song, it actually is from their “Unappreciated” album. I downloaded that song last year, but lost the file after my computer crashed.

I used to like Cherish, but that was just a faze.

Britney - Shouldn’t she be singing “Gimme Kids”?

Asinine - yawn.

Shut Up Megan. Why Wouldn’t we be interested in Britney?

40.

Lily

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

Nikki, I just looked and you are right Britney only has two hit songs Hit Me Baby and Gimmie more and that is because of Itunes it is losing spins on Radio. The only other three songs that Made top 10 were Drive Me Crazy #9 Toxic #9 and Opp I did it again #10. The way people talk about her it’s like she had 10 number 1’s or something. All the rest of the songs flopped.

So WHY is she so popular , most of her songs flop?

41.

That Alicia remix was a hot mess. Where did they get the beats, an old Casio?

Cherish … Meh.

This site needs to stop posting Britney’s music. I just don’t understand why America gives this untalented ho so much press. The girl has always been whack! She just uses sexual imagery to sell records, and her management team was great. They are the ones who deserve all the accolades and awards for making a girl who can’t sing for her life an instant millionaire!

Alicia Keys- She bores me. She sings from her throat, but ppl love her for some reason.
Cassie- Sounds nice if you are in the club drunk.
Brit- I dont care anymore.
Cherish- I stopped caring when ppl started snapping on the West Coast.

That Cassie song is so old…..didn’t like it too much when I first heard it….don’t hate it though.

Listening to anything Britney Spears is PAINFUL.

I like Cherish but I don’t feel this song too much. I don’t think it’ll grow on me too much either.

And some of you people keep using the term hate so loosely. So what if CJ doesn’t like Britney or thinks that she sucks! Thats his/her personal opinion. Hate is when one is jealous and he or she wants something that somebody else has. Who the hell would want to be so talentless that by the time that you lose your management your career takes a nosedive? Point blank Britney would not be that famous without her management!

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

I’m not a huge Britney fan, but a lot of her new tracks have crossover appeal so why shouldn’t they be posted just because this is a Black site? LOL @ people saying she’s a flop when she’s sold over 70 million records worldwide. I’m not ashamed to admit I like both “Gimme More” and “Radar”. No thanks to the Cassie “song”, and Cherish need to come with something new.

#52- who doesn’t use sexual imagery?

Anyway, I like Brit and I am black. CL should not be confined to posting just about black people. That’s absurd. And Iike the song. I’m glad to hear something other than the “snap your fingers” movement.

AKeys- remix is okay. Like original better

Cassie- no comment

Cherish- love them. Do your thing my young black sisters.

i think this is all within britneys plan…to get sells….she purposely did terrible and caused a frenzy at the mtv awards…not that i think she is a great performer or artist but she looked and did a hot mess on purpose……

she also had the kids being taken away from her done on purpose too because she wants sympathy from the world so that they can run to the stores and buy her album.

britney does not care….she has the paparazzi on speed dial……she calls them and tells them where she is and finds out which night clubs they are…

radar sounds annoying as hell –it sounds like a song rhianna would do tho….

HOW IN DA HELL IS SHE GON PLAN TO HAVE HER KIDS BE TAKEN??
U CAN’T BRIBE A JUDGE. ITS A FELONY!!! Y WOULD WE HAVE SYMPATHY?? WE R SICK OF HER ASS!!

AND Y WOULD SHE CALL THE PAPARIZZI?? IT MAKES NO SENCE BOO BOO.

BRITNEY WAS SELLIN RECORDS BEFORE ANY OF THIS HAPPEN. SHE HAS ALREADY SOLD OVER 75 MILLION RECORDS. SO SHE HAS ALREADY ESTABLISHED HER SELF AS A ARTIST SO PUBLICITY IS THE LAST SHE NEED.

ITS THE PAPARIZZI THAT GIVES HER PUBLICITY!! ITS HER AGENTS AND MANAGEMENT COMPANY THAT GIVES HER AVERTISMENT. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE!!

ANYHOO I LIKE RADAR. ITS A CATCHY SONG

Britney has had 5-7 top ten hits…Toxic, Drive me Crazy, Oops, Hit Me BAby, and Gimme more, and 17 songs total that’ve charted (has the most charting success of the Millenium artists)

The thing is Gimme more and HIT me baby one more time are her HIGHEST songs on the charts

With that said. Radar isn’t produced by the Clutch, it’s produced by Bloodshy & Avant (the people who did Toxic)..and personally i love the song, if she could push out a kickin video. ANd i’d be careful posting Britney Spears’s songs, perez hilton is getting sued now as i typed this

I never mentioned anything about her color. The point is that she can’t sing. If this was Christina Aguilera I would say that CL should post her music. Britney just has an advantage because she has good production, good management team and hardly wears any clothes. Thats why she sold so many records. She has no talent whatsoever.

71.

SAY WHAT:O

Friday, October 12, 2007 /

The remix is nice but like the original version is better. I don’t think the way she’s singin the song goes with the beat to well

The Cassie song is crap.

The Brittaney’s is toooo damn hot!! Iam starting to believe her album is going to be dat hotness!!!

OH yea, really didn’t feel like hearing the whole Cherish song, just a few minutes in i had enough.

Britney- I heard this song on youtube (NM else to say).

Cherish- I just wish they would retire. Is it me or does all there music sound the same?

Alicia Keys- I could of done w/o the remix. What’s the point of Cassidy on her record?

#69 and that is what I said she only has 5 top ten hit and ONLY two in the the top 5. NOT a lot to be bragging about.

Toxic#10
Drive Me Crazy#9
Gimmie More#3
Baby One More Time#1
Oops#10

THAT IS 5 not 7 , the point is is that people talk about her like she has lots of hits MOST OF HER SONGS HAVE FLOPPED.
