♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Ryan Leslie & Cassie - Addiction (full) - listen
Check out this new song from Ryan Leslie and Cassie. Ryan has been getting plenty of play from his new song, “Diamond Girl,” and is set to release his album this summer. Although “Diamond Girl” has grown on me, I’m not sure how I feel about this new song, “Addiction.” Ryan, who is randomly a Harvard alumni, is responsible for producing Cassie’s entire first album, as well as for Cheri Dennis and Danity Kane. I must admit, Leslie is a talented and intelligent guy - but I’m not sure if I see it for him as an artist.

Raven-Symone - Girl Get It (full) - listen
We posted this song months ago, but I got so many e-mails about it, as if it were really new music that I decided to post it up again. The track is written by Sean Garrett, who is dropping an album as well this summer. I think that the song is really hilarious, considering Raven’s Disney background. She’s talking about club bangers, getting dough, hustling and all of that. I’m not sure who Raven’s trying to target here: her Disney viewers or people her own age. Raven’s about 22 or 23 these days, isn’t she?

Nicole Scherzinger feat. Timbaland - Physical (full) - listen
I don’t think Nicole Scherzinger’s album is coming out anymore. I’ve been hearing that Interscope scraped the project, but music is still leaking. I posted a snippet of “Physical” before, but here’s the full version. What’s funny about it is, credit is now being given to Danjahandz for producing it, and it also appeared years ago on ASCAP’s site as Pussycat Dolls song. Was Nicole recycling old PCD tracks for her album? I think it’s a shame that the label put so much money into her record, Her Name Is Nicole (2 videos, and 3 singles?!) and it isn’t even dropping.

Mariah Carey feat. Da Brat - 4Real4Real (full) - listen
Mariah’s new album, E=MC² hit stores today, but there were a couple of songs that didn’t make the shelve release. “4Real4Real” is an iTunes bonus track featuring long-time friend and previous feature, Da Brat. Although I can see why the song is a bonus track, it sounds about like everything else that Mariah made for the album. It was good to hear from Da Brat again, no matter how much I hate the new hair.

The Ryan and Cassie song is wack as hell! I can’t believe people are really starting to like Cassie. I hate Ryan’s voice, he can’t sing that well. He sounds like he’s trying to sing. Cassie only has 4 words and is talking on the track like she does in all her other songs. Ryan needs to stick to producing and Cassie needs to return to her Target ads or sit down and be Ryan’s stay at home bitch.

Nicole’s song is wack too! I find it funny how her fans, record labels, and producers hyped her up, making her into this exotic, sex kitten and she fell right on her ass! She can’t sing and she’s a wack ass artist. That’s what she gets for selling sex!

Raven used to be a small girl when she was like 13. So she did get very large. I think she’s too big and in an unhealthy way. How you go from being healthy and small to big as a house??? Her song is wack and so is she. She can’t sing and her acting is limited. By the way, she’s not worth 400 mill, that’s how much her show, Cheetah girls, and makeup line made. She only got 1/8 of the profits.

I love Mariah Carey… too bad I can’t hear the link!

Everybody is clowning Raven’s Song…. Why? I actually like it. If you take the time to listen before hatin you will listen to the message of the song. Raven is promoting female independence. I can appreciate her grind. And she is someone to look up too. If she played big bank take lil bank wit ya, yall ass will go bankrupt!

Ryan Leslie…… he is something to watch out for….. the beat hits so fucking hard and nice it’s ridiculous…. its mad hot and i like how it switches up on ‘em….. I DONT, however like Cassie’s voice on the track. Put someone better on the track he might have a hit on his hands… SICK SICK BEAT THO… It’s HOT, my favorite of the four by far.

Raven… I know she sucks, I dont need to hear some wack ass try to know that.

Nicole….. DANJA DID THE DAMN THING!!!! The beat is sick…. Nicole and Timbo fit really well on the track too…. the lyrics are a little too simple though…. but it’s nyce as fuck!

Mariah…. Me and Mariah are at odds right now. I’m unsure about anything she’s done lately…. HATE her new single….

ALL THE SONGS ARE WACK, EXCEPT FOR RAVEN’S SONG “GIRL GET IT.”

Raven's New Song

Tuesday, April 15, 2008 /

You didn’t post Raven’s song a few months ago. The song titles are similar but, the songs are different. There’s “Got it Girl” and “Girl, Get It”; being the song you just now posted. She isn’t really singing about the club and hustling. Raven is talking about women who have to struggle and work for things on their own, just by working a 9 to 5. She’s giving those women props in her song. Her songs stay positive and this is a good sound for her.

I wish all you people would stop hating on Raven. First of all, Raven has no ties to Disney Chanel anymore; the lease of her show “Thats So Raven” ran out a long time ago. You guys really need to stop looking at her like she is still on the Cosby Show. Doesn’t everyone mature at some point…why can’t Raven. She did her thing on Disney and now she has moved on to bigger and better things. Get It Girl!!!

How the hell can somebody be too big for a song?? Some of you people are just straight up haters. She’s too old to keep doing that Disney shit. I like Raven’s song. Mariah is the one that needs to grow the fuck up…all that damn whispering, and wearing the same shit she wore when she first came on the scene…please..

I think that Raven’s song is actually a really positive, but she has used music and hooks that reminisce of the club bangers that everyone listens too. If, it helps her get radio play. I’m all for it.

Mariah you have the Midas touch, your music is golden.

Lesile and Cassie I like the music, but not the singing.

Nicole’s Physical is the version for 00’s.

Raven - i always liked her and i think this song is a step up, the song is very mature and at least more mature than what she used to do. i hope she gets some more mature audience with this time around. i think ppl dont like it b/c it’s not what they are used to..

Mariah - LOVE HER, LOVE HER ALBUM, ok song… see why she left it off but it’s still hot.

RL’s song is great, he’s like a Pharrell that can sing…He’s got his own sound and stays in his own lane. The Nichole song is terrible, Danja and Timbo are sounding over worked and why is she sounding like Shakira.. glad Jimmy gave up on the “Pop star” She’s been wack since Edens Crush.. Remember ??

Im actually feeling the Ryan Leslie song. I do agree, his vocals could be better
All the rest, Ehh, not feeling them.
Nicole isnt good as a solo artist in my opinion. She was doing much better with the PCD’s

Raven’s song sound so much different compared to the stuff she be doin. But I like it already.

103.

Wednesday, April 16, 2008 /

Ryan Leslie song is nott bad actually…I think I will get his album,I like him alot!

Raven song isnt bad but no1 is gonna take her serious!

Nicole jus killed the life the PCD,they will neva b successful again since shes the lead singer!

Mariah album isnt worth buyin honestly!

Ryan Leslie is a talent producer and a singer, you need check out his first album , i’m a big R Les fan and he has large following especially here in the UK and that song is Hot, You also need to check an Exclusive Nextselection Mixtape on my Blog, then yu will understand this guys is a genious

Ryan Leslie is lame I am tired of these producers trying to come into the lime light. They need to stay behind in the dark where nobody knows who they are because he can’t really sing. He and Cassie are talking throughout the entire song.

Raven Symone ummm I like this song its positive. I am tired all of this negative music so I am definetly feelin’ her!

Nicole she should of never left the PCD. I haven’t liked any of the songs she’s came out with. I mean I unno I just get depressed when I listen to her stuff…..

I can’t hate on Raven, but I like her better on TV :-). I’m not sure why she’s pouting on this pic either. LOL! I guess I’m just gettin old, cuz the rest of these tracks are boring and predictable. I need folks to start branching out a little. Step outside the dang gone box for once. How long must a sistah lean, rock and snap her fingers??? Like Bernie Mac said, “my body’s weary…”
Note to Nicole: Sometimes it is better when your album is not released. Some folks do better w/collaborations and guest appearances….Again, just my opinion. :-)
