Friday, December 19, 2008

Acoustic soul artist India.Arie is returning with her fourth album, Testimony: Vol. 2, Love & Politics, and the lead single from it, “Chocolate High”, features R&B crooner and good friend Musiq.
I’m definitely feeling this one, and I can’t wait to check out Testimony: Vol. 2, Love & Politics, which is scheduled for release on February 10, 2009.

I love India! i wanna marry her. i like this song too; her lyrics are always deep. I dont know about her singing about politics though in the new album…unless it’s about hope, god, progress and what not.

I wish artists like this girl and erykah badu, gnarls, macy and the others be so much more successful, this is real talent, not talentless studio artists, ppl who use looks and sexiness only, yall know them I wont say no names; its such a shame that music nowadays is what it is; excepting a few of them deserving their success because of their hard works, the others are jokes to me! Music of the past is so much better, we, new generation have all the technology and material they didnt have, but lack of recognization for real talent & originality SMH

I love India’s music, style, and serenity she is a excellent role model for young black girls. They don’t have to comprise their dignity and their morals to make good music. I will def buy this album.

I’m glad to hear new music from India, can’t wait for the new album. I think alot of people slept on the last album she but out.
Hopefully people won’t sleep on the new album Musiq Soulchild has out, it’s hands down his best work yet!
Here a beautiful video using Musiq next single “So beautiful” It’s a tribute to Barack & Michelle Obama

I wonder if she wrote anything about Obama on this cd since it’s called “Love and Politics.”

India Arie, Jill Scott, Musiq, Anthony Hamilton, Alicia Keys, and Angie Stone make music for the soul. I actually believe their music has healing power and as long as they continue to make music like this I will continue to support them.

okay…finally! someone with depth and soul. don’t get me wrong…there are many talented artist out now…. but 75 percent of the ones who are at the forefront of the industry are WASHED and WATERD down soooo much we can’t even tell, either trying there hardest to immulate another artist, or over exposing themselves to the point where its soo obvious there career has nothing to do with the music.. (ie beyonce..sry girl, but i can tell ur not having fun anymore). i’m looking forward to this. i know india won’t let me down

I am felling this song, and NOT just because I am a Chocolate-colored sista…………..
but it DOES help LMAO
I am so feeling this tribute to my beautiful skin tone and the collabo’ is sweet and irresistable….., subtle and not forceful (unlike Musiq and MJB’s collabo on “If you leave”- I luv the concept of the song and words, but it’s almost like a screamfest)

These two complement each other so well, and it shows through song
I think they were any item at one time. Anyway the Steve Harvey morning show aired this song in early January of this year (105.3 WDAS FM PHILLY) I was
feeling it first listen. It is a singalong happy song.
