♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

Monday, June 23, 2008

♫ Kanye West feat. Mikkey Halsted & Miss Criss - All I Need (full) - listen
Not sure where this song came from, but it’s been floating around and I got a few e-mails about it. I’m not sure whether or not this is Kanye’s song or not because it seems as though he’s not on the track so much, and I honestly haven’t seen anything from the features in a minute.

♫ Mario - Step Out (full) - listen
Mario had mentioned that he’d already begun work on conceptualizing his 4th studio album, with a couple different producers so that the album had a more cohesive feel. After last year’s Go!, I think that Mario would be on a better track with sticking to a couple of producers for a more solid effort. This new song, “Step Out” is produced by Scott Storch - and I’m hoping that he turns out some tracks better than this one.

♫ Day26 - Must Be Love (full) - listen
Day26 had a few songs recorded that didn’t make the album, and here is the Bryan-Michael Cox-produced “Must Be Love.” I can see why this cut didn’t make the album, it seems very unfinished, but it definitely had the potential to fit in with the rest of the group’s debut album. It’s rumored that they just shot a video for their second single, “Since You’ve Been Gone.” So hopefully we haven’t heard the end of Day26. The new season of Making the Band begins in August.

♫ Sean Garrett - Come On In (full) - listen
Here is Sean Garrett’s second single from his upcoming debut album, Turbo 919. We’ve already done a review on the album, and “Grippin’” didn’t do exceptionally well on the charts, so hopefully “Come On In” will jog an interest for the project. I personally don’t think that this is the best choice for the single. I would prefer to hear something more smooth lke The Neptunes-produced “Patron.”

Puffy fails once again. DAY 26 had a great album but whats the point if its not being promoted properly. Their debut video(for a terrible song) came out a week before the album and we have yet to see a follow up. The show isnt enough Puffy!! Invest some actual time and money in these people and maybe they’ll succeed.

and why is there a NEW season of MTB coming soon???? Will this madness of Diddy thinking he’s still a music hit-making mogul ever end? Bad Boy needs to STOP…it MUST STOP…and it WILL STOP! Guess Diddy didnt get the memo.

(but I aint gonna lie…I would watch it though…yeh, yeh…hypocrite LOL It likes a bad car accident u know..just cant help but look)

Diddy needs to hire a new PR team and put in more money for these bands..whats the point behind another season when he hasnt successfully managed the two good ones hes got?? Its the same s**t we are going t6o see with the new one. SMH

The new season of MTB isnt about a whole new band. Its about following DK and Day 26 on tour and stuff.

Yall got it wrong! It is up to their managers and PR are team to look out for them. Puffy is the CEO not PR. Did you know that they are on Atlantic/Bad Boy. What are they doing? Puffy cant do everything. He gave them a record deal, A show, A name for themselvs. They need to hire a better team. DK song Damage went to number 10 on the billboard charts which is actually good. If you like these artist support them, then the record label will do more! DK album is soon to be platium status.

OH NO!! This is just straight garbage. That Kanye West song is so damn bad, I turned that mess off at 17 seconds. I Love Kanye though, thats my boo.

Mario, I love Mario, BUT his song sounds like a damn car commercial. I could just imagine an Escalade driving with the Brooklyn Bridge lights behind it.

I strongly dislike Day26, so I’m not even going to attempt.

I don’t like Sean Garret but ‘Come On In’ is nice, I won’t deny it.

yo. this guy sean garrett needs to put his damn ego down and stick to writing. every song of his i have heard that was leaked to this site has been straight GARBAGE! im really tired of these industry cats not giving opportunities to real artists to shine. when did it become a truth that if someone is a good writer that means he is a good artist. dont get me wrong, ne-yo has some good songs, but im tired of his bite after bite of michael, and why does every one of his songs have the same melody? where are the real artists???

yo if yall wanna hear some real music check out this kid up in nyc doin his thing, solomon cortes. he produced on danity kane, he did the battle track on mtb, cheri dennis, teyana taylor, nina sky, wynter gordon. but fuck that! his own project is ridiculous! its some new wave alt/pop that is sooo crazy. dre & vidal get down with him too… but he writes, produces, plays all his own instruments. thats real shit right there. check him out. myspace.com/solomoncortesmusic. and i just checked out his show. crazy!

The Kanye song is ok … it does sound like he’s channeling his inner DMX on this one, it’s not his usual tone and flow. I just did a little background research and found out that DMX is the dude on the chorus. This is supposedly fairly old. it’s from the Go Getters album, “World Record Holders.” You can tell this is when ‘Ye was trying to be more hood, as she says “run through the airport with the heater” and “put two to his brain at the baggage claim.”

Im a big fan of Day 26,but I must say I am very disappointed in the outcome of the Album.They should’ve had more up beat songs,with some fresh sounds,but instead most of the songs were average.Puff is doing a terrible job with his artists right now.
Cheri Dennis Album could’ve been better,Cassie can’t sing but she has the “it look”,need I say more………?

Boo! @ Sean Garrett if he can sing than anybody can sing.

Mario- not feeling “Step out” his last cd was great.though.

Kanye West - I’m not sure that’s a Kanye West track it sounds like something re-used from DMX back in the 90’s its horrible…

Day 26 ….

I like this song by Mario MUCH better than the other crap that’s leaked from his potential new project. I really liked Go!, I think it was one of his best efforts as it showed his growth in maturity and vocal ability, I just hope this next project sells cuz there was NO promotional force put behind Go! Especially after all the push backs and leaks. Go! was a fine album that no one really got to experience. I feel bad for Mario =[

ummm about that sean garrett song…theres something about cursing in r&b that just doesnt do it 4 me….and about the other songs there not doing it 4 me either!

I just have one question…WTH why is there another MTB what is he going to use now kids, animals, muppets what?

I wonder if Diddy is going to make a girl group or a boy group. Aspiring singers need to stay away from the show…Diddy doesn’t nurture his artists and he doesn’t treat them well. The MTB show is his main mode of promotion and publicity…after that he washes his hands of them. This will be the first and last album for Day 26.

Its not another MTB its a new season for the guys and girls. Although there will be mtb rock!

Not a Kanye fan so I won’t listen to it lest I sound like a hater if it’s wack.

Mario- He did have some nice tracks on his last CD. I didn’t buy the entire thing but I grabbed a few from iTunes. If he had been smart, he would’ve been recording this new album while on Dancing With the Stars or something and dropped it the Tuesday after he was voted off. This song, however, is not working for me.

Day who?

Sean Garret- Should I even comment on this one? We already know he cannot sing and is auto-tuned to the max. I had to cut it off after ‘f*ck’ was in the hook. Not worth me listening to at all.

i have the day 26 album and i listen to it on the regular..to me it is almost on par with the n.e. Heartbreak album..their next single should be “co-star”…beautiful song…wish i could be their manager they have an open door and no competition….they could appeal to the younger crowd and the more mature crowd who enjoy entertainers who can actually sing….they need to put brooke payne on their team and do a past and present tour with new edition..the opportunity is their for them to have a solid career but SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE is fucking them up!

34.

Monday, June 23, 2008 /

umm idk what youre talking about but DAMAGED was a hit…it hit number 10 on the top 100 and pop 100…it wasn’t charted on the R&B charts which means that urban radio stations most likely didn’t play it. But don’t get it twisted…Damaged was a hit song.

But i can’t say the same for “Got Me Going”…i liked it…obviously too many other ppl didn’t because it didn’t do that well.

But the songs in question are all BAD…ALL of em…damn that’s a first for me.

“must be love” is dope as hell! i like the vibe of the whole song.

Okay, #8, Damaged got TOO much play. it’s an annoying song now, plus the message of the song is horrible. Guys who have heard the song now look at women different, especially the ones that came out of a bad relationship. Cuz to them it looks as if we want them to fix and patch us up, and don’t get me wrong some guys will fall for it and do it. But not all of them wanna play doctor. They expect us to recooperate and then see them.

Sorry I got off track, but i really had to say something bout that.

“Kanye” song - blah
Mario- not feelin it at all. lov my man mario, but some of the stuff off GO and this new stuff is kinda disappointin
Day 26- tru it seems unfinished but it’s not a bad song
Sean Garrett- it’s aight on dst catchy slow jamz type of thang u know what i mean. hahaha

37.

Monday, June 23, 2008 /

oh yea lemme re-iterate that i personally dont like the sean garrett song, although i know it is appealing to someone else somewhere.

DAY26’s cd was very good… now its almost a lil late to be coming out with a new video. i hope they do though.
Now yall know how Diddy does.. [ 1 guaranteed album & 1 guaranteed video] LOL Day26 has talent, good music, and deserves more attention/promotion than wack Danity Kane. Im curious to see if Day26 will even have a 2nd album.
I wouldnt sign with BadBoy for nothing!!! Sorry, Diddy does so many wrong.

mario- no!
sean - no!
kanye- no!
