♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

Thursday, July 17, 2008

♫ T.I. - Whatever You Like (full) - listen
Even though folks have been going up for T.I.’s new song, “No Matter What,” and they’re loving the video, it seems as though “Whatever You Like” is T.I.’s official first single. I don’t think it’s as strong as it could but, but it’s catchy and I think the ladies will like it. It’s not what I was expecting from an album that’s titled Paper Trail. I honestly like the intensity of “No Matter What” better. Hmmm.

♫ Drake feat. Lil’ Wayne - Brand New (Remix) (full) - listen
I remember posting this a little while ago, but here is a new remix of “Brand New” with Lil’ Wayne. I actually love this version of it. Most are used to hearing Drake rap, but he definitely can sing as well. I’ve spoken to him recently, and he has been hard at work at his debut album, Thank Me Later. I think that “Brand New” should definitely be kept in the mix of his album. I’ve been waiting on Drake for a minute.

♫ Marques Houston - Sunset (full) - listen
Although I’ve never been a fan, admittedly, Marques Houston has put out some cool tracks as singles over the last few years. Even though neither of his albums have soared to huge heights of success, Marques is definitely a veteran in the game (shoot, one of his album was even titled that). But there’s something about “Sunset” that just isn’t sincere to me. It just seems to be hoping on the whole “acoustic” trend, and Marques’s voice just isn’t doing it for me.

♫ Busta Rhymes - Where’s My Money (full) - listen
Check out this new track from Busta Rhymes, produced by Green Light, from Liberty City Invasion: Music From And Inspired By Grand Theft Auto IV. This song is really live. I am such a huge fan of Busta’s delivery, because it doesn’t matter what he’s talking about, or what he’s saying - it still sounds like a party. There is so much energy, I’m digging it.

Been hip to Drake for a minute. I can’t imagine what “Brand New” would sound like with Wayne added to the track since I’ve been jammin the original for a minute.

He caught my attention with the “Replacement Girl” joint a long time ago

I guess Marques Houston lives by the motto if at first, second, and third you don’t succeed try and try and try and try and try again.

Ur a clown nobody’s checkin for your music.

I know I’m in the minority but I think TI is put on this pedestal he doesn’t deserve. His is alright, he’s no king of the South, not in the top 10 MCs that hot right now list, and he should be in jail. This clown continues to get praise. I don’t get it.

I LOVE me some Drake…and that song “Brand New” has been my ish for a minute. I haven’t checked out the remix with Weezy (hopefully he won’t trash this track like he did “Love In This Club Part 2″), but I’m hoping this track is just as hot as the original ;-).

T.I. could make a song about blue cheese and I would still support lol. The track is ‘eh but his swagger is undeniable. I am definitely looking forward to “Paper Trail”…

I’ve been such a fan of Drake since his early days on Degrassi. I love him so much. His talents are crazy! And with Weezy on the joint you can’t go wrong! I still love T.I. but he needs to put out better material. I ain’t even listen to the Marques Houston joint. His Rogers days on Sister Sister still come to mind. I ain’t listened to Busta’s but I’m sure it’s a guaranteed hit.

LOVE that drake song. It’s been on replay in my ipod for a month, and weezy on it kills it.I really hope he blows up

I don’t really agree w/ MH’s review. I feel emotion especially when I’m used to today’s R&B lacking it. I think MH’s song is pretty good and (my) iPod worthy. I also like Drake’s song and I could have done w/o Weezy’s singing lol. Also… I love Mr. Graham but everytime I see him, I’ll also think of “Jimmy” lol!

First and foremost, I’m a self-admitted Drake STAN, and I think I just might be forever. SO much talent and representing Toronto very well. As for the Brand New Remix, I love brand new as a song, because its lyrics are SO true to what I’ve been going through, despite the fact that I’m a feeling. But I must say, that although Lil Wayne’s lyrics are a perfect compliment to the song, his voice really just irks me. I can’t stand the high, t-pain-ish voice that he has going on. Which is really too tooo toooo bad, because his lyrics are pefect for the song, almost as if they could fit into the original version of the song. Which is not that common with collaborations..

62.

I must add, that Drake has two mixtapes, both Comeback Season and Room For Improvement, which are both QUITE nice. I don’t know which I like better. I LOVE me some Drake.

i like marques’ song.

and I’M happy he doesnt give up because i like his music.

favirote girl and circle were good and this ones straight but the way rnb and music period is these days i dont think it will get any play..because 1.its acoustic..or you pretty much only here the acoustic guitar…BUT I LIKE IT the others are so so for me. there whatever.
