♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

♫ Brandy – Throw It All Away (full) – listen
One Brandy song at a time! More material has leaked from her sessions from the new album, Human, which hits stores November 11th. The production on this is quite interesting, but I’m digging the song. Vocally, Brandy just does it for me.

♫ LL Cool J feat. 50 Cent – Feel My Heart Beat (full) – listen
I remember a couple of years ago, LL Cool J and 50 were quite chummy at some award show, so I was interested to see whether or not they would cut some songs together. I guess this is the product of that new-found friendship. “Feel My Heart Beat” is neither here nor there for me. It’s a cut from LL Cool J’s last album on Def Jam, entitled Exit 13. His single, “Baby” featuring The Dream has been doing pretty well, getting love in the clubs and on BET’s 106 & Park.

POLITICS: HILLARY CLINTON’S DNC SPEECH / OBAMA ASSASSINATION PLOT? / DYSON CALLED ON OBAMA BOOTY TALK / HILLARY CLINTON TRIBUTE

Sen. Hillary Clinton, a self-proclaimed “proud supporter of Barack Obama”, called on the Democratic Party to rally behind the Democratic presidential candidate, adding that “it is time to take back the country we love and whether you voted for me or you voted for Barack, the time is now to unite as a single party with a single purpose.”

Clinton was met with a standing ovation from an enthusiastic audience in the last speech of the night, as she thanked voters for supporting her campaign and reached out to those still wary of Obama. To sum it up, Clinton declared, “No way. No how. No McCain. Barack Obama is my candidate. And he must be our president.”

POLITICS: MEET MICHELLE OBAMA / FL, MI VOTES COUNTED / CLINTON TO RELEASE DELEGATES TO OBAMA

Meet Michelle Obama, whose rousing headlining speech kicked off the Democratic National Convention Monday night.

Her mom said she’d be watching nervously as Michelle delivered her big speech, but predicted her daughter wouldn’t be because “she’s very confident, and I think that comes from being sure of who you are.”
