♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫
Friday, June 6, 2008



♫ Ciara - Supernatural (full) - listen
Boring. This instantly became background music to me. I’m hoping that this isn’t the first single from Ciara’s 3 disc set, Fantasy Ride. If it is, she can keep it. Something about this song does not do it for me. I would prefer “High Price” over this - at least it was trying something a little different. I’m hoping that this new album has something similar to what she gave on “Promise,” which is by far, one of the Ciara’s best songs to me. I hope that she really does bring it this time around.
♫ Plies feat. Jamie Foxx & The Dream - Please Excuse My Hands (full) - listen
I feel uncomfortable listening to Plies, to be completely honest. I feel like I’m doing something I’m not supposed to - and it’s definitely not one of those guilty pleasures. However, I would like to know if Jamie Foxx is working on another album? Unpredictable was highly anticipated and very well received by fans, so I think it’d be interesting for him to come out with a new project. Usually when artist start popping up on features, they’re trying to get people used to the idea of them making a return.
♫ Nappy Roots - No Static (full) - listen
Check out Nappy Roots’ first single from their upcoming album, The Humdinger. I’m digging the new song. I have liked Nappy Roots in the past, so I was surprised when I found out that they have a new single out. Hopefully, the guys will release the album this summer like they plan to. I haven’t heard anything about the new album since I’ve received the e-mail, so I’m hoping they still have the green light on the project.
♫ Wynter Gordon feat. Maino - Surveillance (Remix) (full) - listen
I love the song “Surveillance,” I wish that Atlantic would just hurry up and release it before the people that do know about Wynter become uninterested. It’s something about that song that just makes me want to get up and move, and I love the chorus. I think that Wynter is a talented writer and vocalist, but I’m eager to see what she can do live. Maybe that could be the problem with why they’re putting a hold on her project.

@7 It seems alot of us have forgotten what the definition of being a”hater” is. Every time some has something to say it’s considered “hating” and in this case I think that’s farthest from the truth. Objective Criticism is not “hating”. Giving a review whether positive or negative is not “hating.” I for one like Supernatural, yet I feel what Brian is saying…Promise was/is the joint and it really solidified Ciara with staying power and versatility in her music.
It’s just a review boo relax.

SUPERNATURAL IS HOT, i love the beat, i love the vocals. It sounds like she’s bringing back that good ol 90’s rnb and I love it. And the fact that she was able to work with Ne-Yo and it not sound like a Ne-Yo written song is incredible. If she’d never said his name at the end, you would never know. CANT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM!!! IM BUYING 3, ONE TO LISTEN TO, ONE TO FRAME, AND ONE TO JUST HAVE IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS TO THE FIRST. I LOVE IT CICI, U JUS MAKE EVERYTHING RITE!!

Ciara needs to give it up. I don’t see her connecting with music like some of our randb female sings do. She can’t sing in my opinion.

Ciara sounds off tune in this song,. I couldn’t even listen for 2 seconds. She needs to take a voice lession, ’cause this song is too challenging for her vocal ability. Poor Ciara.

CIARA - supernatural, Id bump that, finna add it to my music player! and All I can say is that she sounds way better than Ashanti’s HARD singin ass lol!! no hater tho. Ashanti came witt it on her new album, but her singing abilities seem soo forced when she is trying to do Runs.. like on, In these streets. I was feeling it all the way up untill the break. That oh baby baby part ohh whooo whooo lol!! man she tried HARD to get that part right!

Supernatural is definetly fire, but yall need to stop trashing brian for his opinion. How hard is it to disagree, and point out why you disagree without name calling? Anyway I love supernatural, but I CRAVE high price…and thankfully it WIll be the first single. This song should absolutely be made into a single tho, like someone said it brings back that 90’s R&B vibe that has been missing.

@Brian You late, I already have that CiCi. What are you talking about, that song isn’t boring. If you lke Promise you should like this seeing that it’s Promise 2.0. That Wynter’s song is boring.SMH. Again I didn’t mean to disrespect you in that first post.

Of course we all have opinions on musics.. but I love Ci song.. Not everyone has to go pop, and cater to the rock/pop audience. It’s a nice smooth rnb tune, which has been lost because so many are trying to go pop. keep growing ci, and make music u enjoy.

lol @ Brian you didn’t cut Ciara no slack, I guess boring was the first thing that came to your mind. lol
The Ciara song is ok just not for a single.
Plies: I wish he would pick up some more topics, but I guess this is what works for him. Where is Superhead when you need her, I want to know is he as good as he claims lol j/k.

What an idiot for him/her to post something saying that Ciara’s song is not the shyt. Of course, “Promise”‘ is an excellent song but how-close-shall she get to it? Re-make it the same way? This song is hot! FYAH, BABY!!!!

1. Supernatural is the business, it’s got a relaxing feel to it.
2. Jamie makes Plies’ track worth listening to. Plies needs to retrieve some different subject material because he’s ridden the brakes off this bust-it baby idiocy.

Yeah I’m sorry i don’t consider his reviews “Reviews” I will stick to Billboard, Rolling Stone, NY Times if I may say they do excellent reviews. I mean he gave a plug for Keri’s cd. His reviews are more personal opinions which reviews are but his are more like journal entries. i mean why don’t you like is the beat, vocals, melodies what. There was no review of Supernatural. Really none of them are reviews you did however mentioned that you loved the chorus in Wyntor G. song. But hey this is just MY opinion maybe we have different views on what MUSIC reviews are.

That Plies song is actually Lil’ Ronnie’s (the producer/singer on “Addicted”: I’m A Fiend” he’s in Atlanta on Lil’ Bow Wow’s label. He’s also the one who did R. Kelly’s “Flirt” and Kells and Usher’s “Same Girl”
His version is on his myspace and sounds a lot better than the one with Plies and Jamie.

i likes the Ciara joint, its nice. I fucx wit dat.
Luv Plies freak-nasty ass. (i like how The Dream comes in on his verse but i do have to say he sounds a lil like a woman)
OFFICAILY BUMPIN THE WYNTER GORDON IN ROTATION. wasn’t feelin it a first but soon as the corus came in i HAD to put on repeat.
Dayum im luvin the “No Static” its good to hear some hip-hop were i can focus more on the lyrics than the beat. B/C these dudes can actually rap, they don’t need a beat to distract from their words.
61.
Beeyah!
Saturday, June 7, 2008 /
Ciara’s song is hot.Vey smooth and sexy.
Can’t get into Plies sorry.
Wynter Gordin is nothing special to be honest and her label is not pushing her music because there is no interest from the public.
Brian sweetie, just post the music and let people decide if it’s hot or not. Nine times out ten anything Brian likes is not all that and it’s starting to get annoying.

Wow im impressed with Ciara. Her vocals were very nice and the lyrics were very creative. The song is truly art work. I think I might just buy her new album…I bought the second one….didnt buy the first. She just got more interesting.
Plies song is ok. I per fer listing to the Bust It Baby remix with Ms. Jackson.

the review seems very personal…
it wasnt even a real review.
kinda harsh if u ask me…i mean for someone who thinks keri hilson’s new song is the shit when it just sounds like every other BORING song is not a reliable reviewer…
anywho the song speaks for itself and it is the ish! very hot and new and different for ciara who is growing up now.
TEAM CIARA!

Brian idk what the fuck you on but that Ciara is the shit. I didnt care enough to listen to the other stuff, but that Ciara is on point. It seems like you got a personal problem with her though. Why you hatin? It’s like anything Ciara does you don’t like. And I agree with another person who said you should just give us the music and let us decide because 9 times out of ten you like the bullshity ass songs and on the jams you be like “eh”. Wass up with that?
72.
ummmm
Saturday, June 7, 2008 /
damn…the review is so openly hateful(0% ear for music)…and some people just followed and agreed…listen to the song….its too refreshing…
she actually captured a feeling with the song and her melodies…
your opinion is yours but if you say u cant listen to it for more than a couple of seconds…ur really angry inside and envious..!
