♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

♫ Michelle Williams - Hello Heartbreak (full) - REMOVED
The full version of Michelle Williams’s “Hello Heartbreak” has leaked. I think I dug the snippet a little more, but this doesn’t distract my interest from Michelle’s new project, Unexpected. This is the first song from the album that I’ve heard that really just hasn’t kept my attention. And even still, I think it may have something to do with the quality of the song. Is it just me, or does the vocal seem really low?
♫ Joe - E.R. (Emergency Room) (full) - listen
Although extremely underrated, I really liked a lot of the songs on Joe’s last album, Ain’t Nothin’ Like Me, and to be completely honest, I’m really digging this new song too. “E.R.” feels similar to a lot of the material on the last album, so I’m wondering if this means that Joe is coming out with a new album or if this is just unreleased material from the sessions of the last album.
♫ Ashanti - Good Good (full) - listen
This is Ashanti’s second single from her latest album, The Declaration. It was originally supposed to be the Akon and Nelly-featured “Body On Me,” but I think Ashanti realized that the song wasn’t all that great, and she decided to trade high instead of not trading at all, especially with it being really hard for some artists to find relevance these days. “Good Good” is produced by Jermaine Dupri.
♫ Jazmine Sullivan - Need U Bad (Remix) (full) - listen
Check out this new remix of Jazmine Sullivan’s first single, “Need U Bad,” which has been getting a lot of spins here in Atlanta. I’m really glad that Jazmine’s album is finally going to come out, because I’ve been checking on this young songstress for sometime. Although I don’t like how the vocals were a little sped up on the song, I think her fans will like this remix. I prefer the original, though.

I HATE concept songs like Joe’s “ER” and Raheem DeVaughn’s “Text Messages”…. that shit is so lame and uncreative and WHACK!!!!!!!!
Jazmine’s remix is fire!
I’m glad that Ashanti’s label decided to take my advice and ice that Nelly/ Akon foolishness and release “Good Good”…. thus giving her album LEGS!

Im sorry but I think Ashanti’s track is childish. I picture fast ass highschool girls singing it.The only difference in this song is she’s not popping a damn vein in her forehead screamin the damn lyrics like the first song released. And the few who do like it is only because they think their sh*t is good good….paleeze! Half of yall probably don’t even wash your asses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As for Jazmine Sullivan. love her voice. That’s what you call the business. The original version is my sh*t.

Ok, and I defintiely made it clear that I “didnt” know what she was speaking! Yea, and who exactly would i be going to get the information from for this “research” for one freaking part of a song! Maybe I could A.) just use my voice analyser that would magically tell me what she was speaking was “patois” or I could B.) just ask a FUCKING question, like I just did!

Jazmine is simply sick as far as vocals go. We don’t have enough of that right now! I’ve always been a fan of Joe; he has never gotten the credit he was due. Ashanti is Ashanti and you either like her not. I choose “not” to. We need to save the air time for real artist..enough is enough. CD’s are much too expensive to waste money on mediocre talent. Not hating just my opinion. Good-Good..?????? I mean com’ on talk about your bubble gum lyrics!!!!!

FYI: Joe is coming out with a new project. Supposedly it is going to be on Kedar Massenberg’s new label. He was on KJLH on last Thursday and they played about 6 new songs. Some of it was good…some was alright.

Ashanti song sounds to much like something Beyonce would sing, maybe not those words but same beat, sorry not buying it.

Jazmine sounds just like Lauryn Hill. I know we missing the real Lauryn right now but I hope she ain’t just biting her style to fill a void. Be yourself [girl] , every one else is taken - Oscar Wilde
