Janelle Monáe is gearing up to release of her debut album, Metropolis. Here is the new single for the release, “Many Moons,” produced by Nate Wonder, Chuck Lightning & Janelle Monáe, for which she just shot a video for this a couple of weeks ago in Los Angeles.
Janelle’s new EP drops August 12, and the whole entire Bad Boy and Atlantic families, who have partnered with The Wondaland Arts Society to bring you Janelle’s latest project, are absolutely stoked about the new project. “Many Moons” is a darker, scarier look into the world of Metropolis, but still with that classic fun that fans have learned to love from Janelle’s music. Look out for more music from Miss Monáe, and be sure to pick up the EP on August 12.
And in the mean time, while we wait for the video, check out this footage of Janelle Monáe rocking out at Afropunk in Brooklyn!
♫ Michelle Wiliams - The Greatest (full) - listen
“The Greatest” is a new track from Michelle’s upcoming third solo album, Unexpected. So far, I have been digging all of the music that I’ve heard from Michelle, aside from that fan-made clip of “Hello Heartbreak.” What I’m really impressed with, is that the single, “We Break the Dawn” is very representative of the rest of the material on the album. Even though it seems as though Michelle is giving us a lot of midtempos, it is staying in the same lane of music.
♫ Brooke Valentine - Friday Night (full) - listen
Here’s some new music from Brooke Valentine, with the same track that has been used by Le’Che Martin of Making the Band, as well as Amerie on her last album, Because I Love It… This track has really gotten around. This song is definitely from some old sessions from Brooke Valentine’s shelved second album, Physical Education. I love Amerie’s version of the song, penned by The Clutch, as well as Le’Che Martin’s, so I guess that’s why Brooke’s isn’t doing anything for me.
Gabrielle Union hit up the “Meet Dave” premiere in Westwood, California on Tuesday night. The actress co-stars in the movie with Eddie Murphy (who was a no show) and it will be released on Friday.
After viewing a few of the commercials of “Meet Dave” I’m convinced it’s going to suck, not to mention Eddie didn’t even show up to the premiere and he is the star! Didn’t he do that for Pluto Nash too? Anywho, Gab looks nice.
DJ Clue, Jermaine Dupri and Young Jeezy attend Young Jeezy’s VIBE Magazine cover debut party at the Hotel Gansevoort on Tuesday in New York City. Guest Included: Nas, Fabolous and more.
Here is the newest video from Nas. It was produced by Polow Da Don and features Keri Hilson. Nas’s new album, Untitled is set to drop next week on July 15th. Peep some video from behind the scenes when you keep reading..
Let me reintroduce you to Hollyweerd. Back in January, we featured them in our artist spotlight section, and they got a swelling response from readers, other blogs and even some label executives.
So, they felt is was time to give the public another taste of what they’ve been grinding on. “Monkey” is that just that - a wild, loose animal, all over the place, a lot different than their previous track, “Have You Ever Made Love To A Weerdo?” But the group is still going strong and working on their debut, banging out cuts with a few different producers.
