Ryan Leslie sucks and So does Cassie

THEY WERE OKAY

lol @ who raven’s trying to target. why is old boy random cuz he want to Harvard? don’t hate

Not soo good!
#3

i like ‘that chick’ or whatever it’s called by mariah…

Damn, can Nicole even catch a break?

Raven’s song sound so damn immature! She’s too old and too big to be singing little teeny bopper music…..WTF for real! Somebody needs to tap her shoulder and inform her that her ass is grown, she certainly look it.

I like Raven’s song

I’m feeling mimi’s song….

And i see Ryan and Diddy still refuse to give up on Cassie…..i like Cassie, and i’m so rooting for her, but this shit falls short.

i dont see why he had to be a random HARVARD alumni!!! i dont understand?!?

Songs on here r cool.

LMAO @ Raven’s song. I wanna give her a chance, but I just can’t picture her doing anything other than disney songs. The song sounds like something I’ve heard before….the chorus is catchy though. And she doesn’t sound bad. So….I’ll give her a C+. I need to hear something more mature from her though.

Cassie actually sounds decent on this song. Probably because she’s mainly on the chorus, so that’s a minimal chance to eff up.

Well i’m listening to Raven’s lyrics and they’re telling an important story. Mimi’s damn near 40 and trying to be gangsta. I say Raven’s in the right spot and Mimi’s out of place sort of speak, even though I dislike both songs.

I like Raven’s song at least the lyrics. I took it from pushing a honda to a BMW with my own dough and the name is on the deed, so I get her point. GET IT GIRL, GET IT! I am not feeling Mariah this time around but she is steady breaking records so it doesn’t matter what I think.

people dont sleep on true artists like ryan leslie. i heard a couple of his singles and they are hot. especially the one “diamond girl”. he is very talented.

raven-no no no. isnt she worth like a half a bil? just sit down somewhere and go count your money…or stick to acting

cassie same thing-stick to modeling

mariah is a queen-who cares how old she is? she still look better than some 20 yr olds and she is the best single female artist of all time!!!! better recognize

I’m over 30 and I like Raven’s song, it has a positive message, that’s who she is right!
Get it girls get it!! Cute, do you Rae!!!

ryan is sooo tight.. i mean who else can work witha artisst like 24/7 and put up with Cassie…High & greattimes!!z

nicole is pretty but ireally did like baby luv?:(

raven is pretttyyyy. tight!

I heard RL on Tigga’s radio show and he mentioned that he was a Harvard grad …not impressed with “addiction”

About the songs not that it really matters these days just as long as u look hot ur Good(apart 4rm Kelly poor baby cant catch a break) so Cassie will b ok…

I feel the same about the Raven situation as I dont c them Disney kids bumping their lil headz to this and the rest of us still thinkof her as the disney chick(coz she’s still with Disney, hence)!!

Ps. Its Alumna and not Alumni as the latter is the plura for more than 1 hun!!

Raven is on that girl power, independent women vibe. I think that song is good for her. Too bad for Nicole.

I like Raven’s song.

meant Plural (lol)

Say what u want bout Da Brat, but the b!tch can flow.

Brain you’re an idiot. You didn’t post that song months ago. You posted “Got It Girl” a tracked that leak in the summer time. I can see why you confused them both, because they both are saying relatively the same thing. Your music reviews are pretty worthless, because you say mainly the same shit on everything. Come on your job could of been givin’ to anyone if you’re going to review songs based on how you like it, and never discusss the meaning behind the song. I mean Mariah is about to reach a mile stone, and she’s still singing songs about caressing her old ass body, with a big ass bull dagger along the side. You’re a useless source for the website. Your reviews are just so half baked…just start posting the songs we don’t need your reviews.

@kaykay

I agree. Why is ol’ boy random because he’s a Harvard grad. College grads are definately the business. I like Raven’s song. She’s growing up and requires a mature sound. Shoot…I went from a Honda to a BMW! Girl get it!

Plus That’s So Raven been over. I think she’s doing a good thing by targetting a new audience.

PLEASE RAVEN STICK TO YOUR DISNEY AUDIENCE…ITS YOUR MONEYMAKER!! I’M NOT GOING TO BUY NONE OF YOUR MUSIC CAUSE…WELL…I DON’T BELIEVE ANYTHING THAT COMES OUT YOUR MOUTH. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT CLUB…DIDN’T YOU SAY YOU STAY HOME AND MAKE CRAFTS???

STOP GURL..STOP NOW AND GET THA MONEY FROM DISNEY STANS EVERYWHERE…GROWN FOLKS MUSIC IS NOT FOR YOU…..

people need to step off of Raven saying she is too old and too big. Mimi is the one that needs to step it up to something mature. Raven is still young, dang people, give her a chance!!!!

Ryan anc Cassie……….it’s aight…Cassie should be a backup singer

Mimi……ok

Nicole…..ok

props to mimi !!

thats what I say

raven is too big, she definately needs to let those biscuits go……
mariah is so talented very song that comes out of her mouth has the potential to be a certified hit
ryan leslie i`m not feeling it
cassie…well wait for me baby i`ll wife you up , folks dont like your music

I need for Raven to go sit down somewhere!!!! Oh, and all the other songs are wack as well. I can see why Nicole’s c.d. is never coming out.

Mariah needs to sit her old ass down. Raven is trying, she used to bother me but this better than her Cheetah Girls foolishness. Either way she making money so hate if you must. Ryan/Cassie- no comments allotted for that fuckery.

ADDICTION is HOT!!

Oh and the Nicole/Timbo joint is kinda funky.

http://www.youtube.com/wa...LwkgmqA&feature=bz301

THIS NEEDS TO BE POSTED UP ASAP… LOOP TAKE A LOOK AT THIS

Regarding that Nicole joint, NO that’s just the fan made 90 second loop. The full version has not leaked. If you’re nice enough to listen to the full length, you can tell after 1:30 you hear it on repeat til the end.

On the Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer film, you can hear Physical being played in the background. You can hear parts that we never heard from. That’s an indication that this is not the full version.

You guys should hear the remix to Ryan Leslie’s “that girl” song….shit is fire ! And Raven Simone + her boobs are too big for that song !

im def feeling the ryan leslie song!! nice

Why didnt Brian post Bye Bye which is Mariah’s new single, or Loving you long time or That chick or Stay in Love. Interesting (biased) how you post songs that didn’t make the full album- thats total bias. As a music writer you should post her new single or potential new single.

Is it just me or does this Leslie dude sound like Musiq Soulchild?

R.Les and Cassie…i am a fan of his production…FOR OTHER ARTISTS! I am not convinced with him as an artist yet…but I’ll keep an open mind. Cassie…I dont think her collaborating with R.Les is a good idea. The two of them together are stronger than sleeping pills! They both have such monotonic, lazy singing voices…they sound tired all the time. I am sure Diddy noticed that too…probably why he has some “heavy Hitters” to help produce her next album, to WAKE her style up! Hope it works!

Call me crazy but I’m feelin both the R. Les/ Cassie joint and the Raven joint… I would crank both of them in the Masserati… ummmm, I meant Mustang!

Ummmm Brian, based on this song, it should be quite evident why Interscope scraped this trainwreck!

Didn’t care for MC/ Brat… wonder how MC’s boo feel about being left off but I guess one song on the album is enough…..

Raven, a great positive song, something that we as consumers rarely get to hear. i love it, do your thing ma. such a beautiful positve sista. crazy how if she was talking about booty shaking or a bad relationship peeps would love it..

“While all the girls say…. ” THAT SHIT IS HOT!

It has to be hard growing up in the industry, then becoming an adult and have people still see you as the little kid they was first introduced to.

It’s past time for Raven to start making movies and music that’s age appropriate. She is in her early 20’s still, you can’t expect for her to be innocent forever. I’m sure she wants to let loose some just like every other young lady.

OK RAVEN!!!!!!!! i am so feeling those lyrics…..

I actually kinda like the Ryan song, but It would be so much better if someone else was singing it! I’m sick of these producers putting out albums! Stay behind the scenes!

Cassie actually didn’t sound too bad singing her six words over and over again, but I still wouldn’t buy her CD.

Raven-Symone………. stick with Disney, that’s were the $$$$ is.

Mariah Carey is an airhead. I love her voice though, I’ll listen to almost anything she puts out.

No Raven, No. This song is terrible.
Ryan Leslie sounding a bit like John Legend… Don’t like it…

ok do i read all the comments and i am too through with some of these comments towards raven…..wth???how is she too old again,i’m sorry i thought 22 was still young,are have young sistas getting married,having babies,and being alcoholics by the age of 18 made it older…….i mean really…..say you dont like it but dont be tryna turn early twenties into late thirties (like mariahs ass who is still talkin bout the same shit)….man im too thru aint shit i can do but be mad.

I agree with #28 give Rae a chance. I do agree that she is getting older and should probably be done with the whole Disney thing but damn. When she tries to reach out to a different audience people still associate her with Disney. Despite the fact she did do a movie recently with Disney she is at least trying reach out to a different audience. Please give homegirl a break. I like the song. Get it Rae!!

I LOVE that Raven New song It’s Hot and she is 22 years old so she know what she talking about.GO RAVEN I SUPPORT YOU 100%

Black folks feel better around dumb asses get out of the plantation for a day people!!!!!

yea, i really dont really see whats random about being a harvard alumni???

co-sign with #24!! brian ur opion on the music reviews is so repetitive.

Ryan Lesile ft. Cassie- I like the beat, but that’s it.
Raven Symone- I like the lyrics, but hat the beat. Go ‘head with your sexy, $400 million ass!
Nicole- SUCKS!
Mariach ft. Da Brat- SUCKS!

i dont want to sound like a smart ass to you, but she has made 4 singles….and yeah still no cd… i knw…. =/

I don’t like the Ryan Leslie & Cassie collaboration at all. Cassie has no tone to her voice. She’s just talking. She can’t pull off whispery vocals, in my opinion.

Raven’s song is kinda nice. It’s like an updated version of “Independent Woman”. I think the fact that she’s been at Disney for a while is causing people to reject this type of track from her. I think this song would be received better if it was coming from singers like Monica, Keyshia Cole, or Shareefa. You know, somebody with more of a believable edge to them.

I like Nicole’s song. It’s a cool song to work out to.

The Mariah song is just alright to me.

Damn, why have I always thought that Raven was older than 22? I mean she doesn’t look old but…

But I had to give her song another listen…and it’s not that bad. I want her to do a nice ballad though…that’ll probably win me over cause I’m a sucker for slow songs.

ryan and cassie. good beat. this is the best singing cassie has ever done (kept the words to a minimum). but overall i guess it’s passable

raven? hustling? laughable. next!

nichole. this isn’t the full song i heard but i like it. her vocals are weird (like the shriek she did after she says let’s kick it up a notch in the second verse.) and i love weird things. stops the song from being boring. but she’s not getting marketed well imo. hell if riri can make it, anyone can so her team needs to step it up and sell her properly. if they marketed her well, most of the ppl bashing her, would become stans

omg mariah stop. it’s just boring. she’s been singing the same type of music for years now. step out of the box. do something. give us interesting vocals or interesting lyrics or interesting beats. she’s like another r.kelly. they both lost their lyrical talent. 4real4real? nonsense

So let me get this straight Raven does a positive song to uplift young women and she gets criticized based on body image? I swear some of you people. Maybe she should do a song about relying on some man or a welfare check then some of you clowns will relate.

Why would Ryan being a Harvard alum so random?

CASSIE AND RYAN ARE CORNY AND WACK….RYAN IS TOO MUCH OF A DORK TO BE AN ARTIST AND CASSIE STAYS ON A HIGH HORSE WITH NOTHING TO BACK IT UP ….RYAN WILL NEVER BE TAKEN SERIOUS AS AN ARTIST IF HE KEEPS RIDIN AND WORKIN OFF BULLLSHIT “ARTISTS” LIKE CASSIE…MOVE ON RYAN AND DO YOU…FUCKKIN WITH CASSIE IS MAKING YOU LOOK BADD….

Brian means Random as in Ryan Leslie went to Harvard Thats Unexpected….not random as in a bad thing sheesh u people cant read in between the damn lines…..oh all the songs suck and i LOVE concreteloop HOLLER!

Ryan please stick to producing and sell those hits to someone with a better voice! Not that he’s not a talented producer, but his singing far from up to par. I see why he & cassie are together. Um I have no idea what’s going on in the Raven track, I think she should re-focus her songwriting or her singer career is gonna be over faster than Cassie’s. I hope she does her thing though, I like her. Necole needs to get back with them dolls ’cause solo is not quite for her (Not everybody can drop they’re group and go Beyonce) Mimi *sigh, such a waste of a great voice!

all i hav to say is….
ryan and cassie are str8 fire… lovin the track
her voice is mesmorising on the real…
and ya’ll just stop hatin on cassie for once
u kno how her voice is so stop repeatin urself all the time
its really gettin annoyin kk?? LOVE ADDICTION!!!
DONE!!!

Concerning the Raven Haters:

1.) Raven Symone is number 2 to Oprah as far as black women hustlers go. How many people can turn a children’s tv show into 100s of millions of dollars? Don’t forget that she came before Miley Cyrus and High School Musical. She broke the mold for rich Disney Channel Stars. Forget the pusher on the street that would call himself a hustler. She is hustling at its best so she can definitely speak on getting money without the help of a man.

2.) The people that could say something negative about her doing this type of song are

a.) Still in High School (therefore, don’t even have bills yet.

-or-

b.)Not even close to being on the fast track to getting paid and want to hate on someone who can speak on it.

@67..
I agree with!!!!
HATERS

Okay Addiction or Addictive is a nice track, but after hearing Diamond girl and Official Girl (I like them btw) I was expecting a little bit better. I mean Cassie has came along way and I think she needs to step away from R.L. a little bit.

Raven. I love the song. I mean the beat is bananas and the lyrics can give a woman confidence is needed. The lyrics are kinda similar to Destinys Child independent women. She is like 1 of the 2 people who release good music from disney. Her and Keke Palmer are the shit.

Nicole. Nah…not interested in her solo anymore. I mean I was lovin whatever u like until i saw the video. Never really like Baby love and Puakenikeni was good but if she would have release Pua 1st, her album probaly couldve been out by now. But this song bores me and the screaming she does makes it so bad.

Mariah…It took a few plays. I am not in love with it but its okay. Da Brat did a good spit though. I am in love with her…and Mariah too.

@ # 53 Speak for yourself

Ryan being a Harvard alumni is random because most artist’s ( or people in entertainment) don’t have ivy league educations!

Forget the other ones except Mimi and Kameron. Dude is talented!

Haven’t heard the Mariah song yet, but I didnt like a few from her album. Eghh. I rate this album a B-. Almost hitting a C+. Just doesn’t cut it. And im not as impressed as I was hoping to be. The last one was definitely better.

i love ‘addiction’! it’s hott. and cassie sounds good.
harvard alum? okay.

raven looks good in the pic, but i have no desire to hear the song:D

Ryan Leslie song would be hot with a reggae melody

Not feeling Nicole’s song been done

Raven can sing but the context of the song is wack…

Mariah Like the song she delivers

27. IAMDARKAQUA
U know u need to stop hatin on Raven. I bet she makin 50 times the salary you make, if you are making a salary at all.
