NEW MUSIC FROM MARY J. BLIGE

Thursday, December 6, 2007

Mary J. Blige feat. Usher - Shake Down

Mary J. Blige has definitely been doing her thing the past couple of years. She’s set to release her new album, Growing Pains on the 18th of December. She’s got a nice, fashionable video for the first single, “Just Fine,” written by The Dream. Here’s some new material from Mary’s album, titled “Shake Down.” It’s a duet with Usher, who is supposedly coming out with a new album as well (no word on the status of that project). It’s not a bad duet, but it sounds almost identical to the duet that she did with Jamie Foxx on his album, Unpredictable. The production almost seems like it’s the exact same song.

Mary’s album leaked, but it’s a low quality web-rip, so I’m definitely waiting on the real thing to feast my ears. So, if you’re a fan, make sure you get your copy of Growing Pains when it drops in two weeks.

Go visit Mary on MySpace and show her some love. Also, visit there to find more information on Growing Pains.

Yeah they really are playing it out in Atlanta. I heard it yesterday while I was driving home and I was feeling it. It from I Love NY was kinda cute but his IQ had to be a whoppin 5. I’ll do him some justice and give him a 10. I think he might have acted like that for TV though.

I had the chance to download Mary’s album (CD quality, not web-rip) and overall, I’m not feeling it. It seems like it was recorded overnight ’cause most of the joints are sloppy either lyrically or production-wise.

Don’t know what you’re listening to because sonically, this is the best Mary has sounded in a while and the content is on point.

Both of dem got talent and the song is aight, but is it me or does music lack something nowadays dat it used to have, especially r&b. I was listening to some old school r&b over the weekend and dat shit had a vibe we don’t have anymore, and i didn’t have to get high or faded to enjoy it. I need to get my shit together and release some music so CL can put some real toe curling, fallopian tingling shit on here, the ladies will definitely appreciate wat i’m gonna bring to the table. I got a flute from this polynesian chick i fucked wit last month, maybe i can penn some fly r&b flute shit, ooh its gonna be magical, like Disney land and angel dust.

Ummm… #32 - ?? no sir

This song is o.k. I like other songs on the album better.. IMO this album doesn’t touch “The Breakthrough” tho. However, the production, vocals, and overall feel of this album is more polished and smooth. To be honest, I think I enjoyed Keyshia’s album better. It’s NOT a bad thing, its just me.. I give this album a B+

Co-sign with DatDude. This song is blah. No wait, it sucks. Doesn’t put me in the move to make love, call my boo, get jiggy with, shake my hips not even tap my feet.

I’m wondering what the heck everyone else is listening to because it’s not all that.

Oh well, get your MJB feel soon.

MJB is the Q-U-E-E-N! Have you heard the whole album!? “Feel Like A Woman” is fiiiiiiiiiiiiire! So is “Fade Away”, “Hurt Again” (very good song), “Til the Morning” is that old school SOS Band funk feel, “Talk to Me” (”Woman to Woman”/Gladys Knight 70s soul)!!!! Oh…..and “Roses” that shit is true Mary, classic Mary! “Work in Progress” is also a nice ballad.

Love it! Go support Mary J. DECEMBER 18th!!!!

i hate usher now but mary is my giiiiirl since 93!

@ faith I looooooooooooooooove talk to me and roses (if the talking parts were shorter) but i c what u mean wit the grown folks stuff she is talking about ‘real’ shit in relationship that we as women all feel. Hurt again is my song tho the lyrics and emotion mary j puts into it by singing it so softly and clearly

i don’t like shake down that much but i do like feel like a woman

I like it - and I have to disagree with Brian, it’s nothing like the duet that Mary did with Jamie Foxx - that was a remake of “Love Changes.”

I thought Mary’s voice might sound too mature against Usher’s but they sound find.

Pre-ordered “Growing Pains” on iTunes - can’t wait for it to drop!

This song sounds NOTHING like “Love Changes” from Jamie Foxx’s album, which was a remake. That was an inaccurate description. Very nice song…I love me some MJB!!!
