♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

♫ 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.

  2. Dame(I am a Jayz stan and what!)

    HMMMMMMM I can’t feel any song by MH that whole Chris Strokes situation messed me up.

    T.I I like it and I am waiting for the cd. I like the other song swing you Rag or something like that

  3. soccerfiend26

    TI:HOT
    BUSTA:NOT
    MARCUS:ALWAYS TRIES TOO HARD
    DRAKE:hmmmm

  4. Khia Fan (R-E-S-P-E Respect Me!!)

    MARQUES HOUSTON COULD GET IT!!!! HE NEED 2 BRING HIS FINE ASS OVER HERE.

  5. TORONTOBreeD

    YESSSS!!!!! Drake! I believe he’s one of the illest MC’s out his age..his a milli freestyle was DOPE.

  6. 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

  7. Greg_Arious

    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.

  8. superchick

    Drake is the duuuuuuuuuude! I cant wait for his cd! He can act, rap, and sing…dis dude is crazyyyyy!

  9. stel

    lil wayne killeD that song wit drake
    i dont like whatever u like its not as strong as no matter what.
    it seems like all of these neew singles comin out lately from artists like ashanti and nelly and mariah are jus sooooo 2001.
    ex.
    body on me.
    good good
    ill be lovin you long time
    r&b needs to be saved

  10. kkk

    so proud of u!!! D-R-A-K-E!!!

  11. shauny

    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.

  12. 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”…

  13. drake

    haha me & drake have the same name.
    lol, but he cool.
    great rhymes

  14. Twani

    I love Drake i can’t believe he won’t be on degrassi no more. anyways Drake and Weezy together is jus crazy. i have to admit M.H. gets on my damn nerves but i am digging sunset!

  15. NUDARKAQUA

    MARQUIS aka BATMAN aka ROGER(sister, sister) JUST REFUSES TO GIVE UP THE GAME…BLESS HIS HEART

  16. I Looove Jimmy!!! Sorry, I’m still not used to callin him Drake. I been jammin to that song for a while now….The first time I heard it, he actually sounded like Trey Songz But that link you put up isn’t working for me Brian.

  17. KGA

    eurgh “brand new” is much better without lil wayne on it, he bloody trashed the song. his bit sounds like garbage. he aint greasy people just need to stop bum lickin him!

  18. NOAMIE

  30. PRISTINE

    Anything Drake touches is the truth, so that track was definitely fire. Cannot wait until the rapper/ singer/ writer/ actor releases the new album.

    MARQUES HOUSTON!!!!! LOL

  47. Ashley

    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.

  48. * GIFT FROM A VIRGO *

    DRAKE,is tight, I love his stuff. I think this should be on the album…

  49. nono

    that sunset song is pretty hot! go head mh

  50. mamashome

    marques houston is coming back out? wasnt expecting that…but im glad he is cuz that song has a nice groove to it….im not really feeling the butsa song though

  51. mamashome

    *busta rhymes,oopsy :)

  52. V

    Now i love me some t.i. but the song is mediocre, but i said the same thing about “you know what it is” and i ended up loving it so IDK, depends on the video i guess

    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

  53. V

    I don’t like marques houston, but he has had some nice songs like circle, favorite girl, that girl BUT THIS SONG SUCKS

  54. DARRIUS

    WTF are ya’ll talking about liking lil wayne part in the brand new song…he didnt even say nothing..i swear you people are slow

  55. Marques Houston is a perverted sexual predator, him and that nasty Chris Stokes!NEXT!

  56. Shorty

    Likes Busta
    T.I. likes that!!!! I need a man to say Whatever u like!!!!
    M.H. he need to try again
    Drake is ok, I was waiting for Lil Wayne to say more than that.

  57. Jamie872006

    Yea I been waiting for Drake too, I love his music.

    I don’t care for Marques Houston song

  58. Lady

    Wow…This song is hot! Definitely on repeat! Finally something different from the simple ‘f*** me’ songs!

  59. Kellz

    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!

  60. Busta cuses like crazy, that’s his style. I like the cut though.
