Michelle Williams, former bandmate of Destiny’s Child has pushed back her album from an August 12th release to October 7th. Despite “We Break the Dawn” hitting #1 on Billboard’s dance charts, I think the album has been pushed back due to a lack of promotion. There was a dispute where BET wasn’t giving Michelle’s video any airplay.
The plan is to send out “The Greatest” as Michelle’s official second single, as well as churning out “Hello Heartbreak” for dance radio. The general response to Michelle’s material has been positive overall, so hopefully this new strategy for the album release works out. I definitely don’t want Michelle to suffer from what Kelly endured during the U.S. release of her sophomore effort, Ms. Kelly.
In the mean time, Solange and Michelle were both due out to release albums two weeks apart, so you can still pick up SoL-Angel & the Hadley Street Dreams (check out the official album cover here) on the 26th of August.
JAZMINE SULLIVAN LIVE
This isn’t really news, but the internet has been going nuts (not to mention my inbox) over this new live performance from Jazmine Sullivan. “In Love With Another Man” is the song that had J. Records executives on their feet when she performed it live for them, and apparently, it sealed the deal for the 21-year-old songstress. Well, here she is performing in the Seventeen Magazine offices, with just her pipes and the piano.
Remember that Artist Spotlight we did on her last year…
Look out for her debut album, Fearless, in stores soon. This girl is singin’, ya’ll…

♫ Pussycat Dolls feat. Darkchild, Diddy, Lil’ Wayne & Fatman Scoop - When I Grow Up (Remix) (full) - listen
Lil’ Wayne is on everything! But that’s besides the point. This remix goes hard! Even though the Pussycat Dolls are hardly on the track, I am definitely digging the remix, produced by Darkchild and featuring a host of other cameos! It just seems like it would be a cool, radio-friendly track. I hear a bit of an MJ sample in the track as well. Love everyone’s delivery on this track.
♫ Usher - His Mistakes (full) - listen
Hmmm. Usher is gearing up to release “His Mistakes” for his third single from his latest LP, Here I Stand. Even though I like “His Mistakes” as an album cut, I’m not sure if I’m really all smiles about it being released as a single. “Love In This Club” was very misleading, as far as the rest of the content on the album. I really think that the label is trading low by releasing this as a single.
