♫ Missy Elliott feat. Teyana Taylor & Pharrell – Put It On You (snippet) – listen
Missy Elliott’s Block Party project was put on hold, due to the success failure of her alleged first single, “Best, Best,” which was produced by Danjahandz. Even though I really liked the track, and could see it performing well with a video (Missy is known for having unique clips for her singles), it was under promoted. But this new snippet featuring Teyana Taylor and Pharrell Williams, produced by The Neptunes has leaked, and it indeed sounds like the respective album title – a block party.

♫ J. Holiday – Heart Attack (full) – listen
Seems as though J. Holiday’s new album, Round 2, is shaping up to have more love songs, which is great, because it will be representative of his singles. “Heart Attack” is actually a pretty cool track. I enjoy J. Holiday’s voice, but 2007′s Back of My ‘Lac just wasn’t a full batch of enjoyable material. Although there’s no official tracklisting confirmed yet for Round 2, I’m hoping that Holiday follows this direction. These are the type of tracks ladies want to hear from him.

♫ Estelle – Star (full) – listen
Check out this new track from Estelle, whom I got to see live the other night and absolutely fell in love with. Her voice sounds amazing live. I dug her debut album, Shine, but seeing her live just gave me a new appreciation for her voice and her as an artist. “Star” is a little different from anything that she recorded previously on her United States debut, but Estelle mentioned that she was trying some different sounds on the new album. I’m excited to see what she comes up with.

♫ Pussycat Dolls – Bad Girl (full) – listen
With all of this Chris Brown and Rihanna drama going on, I’m glad that they didn’t put this version of the track on the Confessions of a Shop-A-holic soundtrack. I wasn’t really a fan of the song to begin with, which is strange, because I hugely dig Polow Da Don productions, so hearing this new version is neither here nor there to me. But does this mean that the Dolls have already begun work on a third album?

  2. Uhnonymis

    Brian the Bad Girl song is for the “Confressions Of A Shopoholic” soundtrack.

    I like the Rihanna version better.

  3. meme

    i like rihanna’s version over the pussy cat dolls

  4. Aisha

    I really like Missy’s new ish…not bad at all!

  5. 4000 words

    I love Estelle! Apparently the song star is being used for a Crystal Lite commercial but Im not sure how true that is. The song is just okay though, its not a standout track but Im sure she’ll bring the heat with her third album

  6. I like Rhi Rhi & CB version Better….

    Like J. Holiday’s song… I hope the entire CD is good. Cant wait for it to come out.

  7. kmniles

    PCD’s have to be dissaponted with the performance of their latest cd. They’ve released what…4 singles (one being a major hit) and still haven’t moved andy units.

    Missy and Teyanna? Humm…must be those lips….

    Estelle’s song is nice

    J Holiday…blah

  8. ericdwills.com

    IMO…btw…i think missy’s got another hit on her hands.

  9. Datone

    The Missy track is FIRE!!!!

  10. 12

    I like Estelle’s song.

  11. BAD BAD BITCH

    I loooove J. Holiday. He’s so raw and real, plus he’s from the DMC area!!!! Gotta love him! All of Missy’s stuff started to sound the same after 2003. Estelle… eh. Not a fan. I prefer Chris & Rihanna’s version. PCD sucks now. Their first album was the shit! Every song was a hit!

  12. MrB

    I LOVE WHEN MISSY SINGS!!!!! SHE NEED TO STOP FAKING AND GIVE US AT 1 R&B CD

  13. BAD BAD BITCH

    Sorry I meant DMV area, not DMC ;)

  14. saliarai

    The Pussycat Dolls version has replaced the Rihanna & Chris version on the “Confessions of a Shopaholic” soundtrack.

  15. bambino

    shine was not estelles debut album it doesn’t matter if her first was not released in the u.s shine is her second album

  16. saliarai

    I like PCD’s version since Chris Brown’s non-rapping self IS NOT on it.

  17. Nick

    Ha, I bet the Confessions of a Shopaholic people are glad they cut Riri & Chris early on.

  18. syn'ceRe

    i lke da PCD version better i can understand da words and da song aint annoying like riris .

    love j holiday song..yea he need mo love songs

    omg da 2 dikes got a song …its hot tho it sounds like um of her old stuff…dang i aint talked in pig latin since high school lol

  19. JaeSassy

    Augh..I have to wait to get home to hear! I love J. Holiday!!

  20. they’ve been playing RiRi and Chris’ version on the radio

  21. Glamour Us Mom

    I like the Missy track and J. Holiday’s voice is nice over the music. Nice and mellow. Estelle, just can’t quite get into her. PCD. SMH. :sad:

  22. Not really feelin any of the songs. Don’t even bother with the Pussycat Dolls because they a big joke imo. Estelle is the only artist who’s song sounds decent.

  23. Greatestloveofall

    Best Missy track in ages. This could be her big hit after nearly 4 years without a hit.

    Love Estelle.

  24. DEDRA

    I LIKE MISSY TRACK ALSO, IM KINDA FEELING J HOLIDAY!

  25. chocolatekate

    Loving the pig latin on Missy and Teyanna’s joint.
    The production is eh…ok.

    J Holiday sounds pretty cool.
    Estelle song is dope, I remember hearing that in the Crystal Light commercials during the grammys an I am feeling how her key is slightly all over the place..it’s hot.

    PCD can do no wrong & that Natalie is “haught”.

  26. dan

    missys song sounds hot, thats what she should come with!!!!
    best, best was a nice track…but not for a comeback single

    love estelle, song is nice

  27. let's not lie

    estelle’s was nice
    boo to everyone else

  28. chloe

    i love the pussy cats version much much better. im glad they got someone who can actually flow on a track cuz when rihanna sang it it sounded like a little girl singing a song to big for her. she was singing straight from her throat and nose. but ne ways. the estelle joint is hot. didnt bother to listen to the other ones

  29. ELIMINATE THE WORD "HATE" IN 09

    LIKE THE MISSY FT. TEYANNA AND PHARRELL TRACK

    LOVE J. HOLIDAYS SONG. I HOPE HE IS GOING IN THIS DIRECTIONS TO. THE BEAT IS SICK

    ESTELLE’S SONG IS OK I DON’T REALLY LIKE HER VOICE. BUT WHATEVER

    DIDN’T BOTHER WITH NICOLE AND THE PUSSY CAT DOLLAS B/C THAT WHAT THEY ARE. I’M SO SICK OF THEM. I WISH MELODY WOULD GO SOLO

  30. truthfulsista

    Missy Elliot’s track kinda sounds like Baltimore Club music. It’s okay, but she’s wack right now and nobody is checking for her anymore so I don’t think she can come back hard and be on top like she used to be.

    J Holiday’s song made me laugh! You make me wanna have a heart attack???? or whatever he said. I wasn’t feeling it.

    Estelle’s song is okay. I would have to keep on hearing it to get used to it.

    I wish Nicole’s old a** would stop singing the lead on all the tracks. Melody and one of the other girls who I heard but don’t know her name can sing really good. I don’t think Nicole can sing at all. Her voice sounds all raspy! This song sucks. It sounds like something that was made for Fergie. The bass is hot, but everything else is wack!

  31. MRS. SK8BOARD P (AK AND BK STAN)

    love the missy and teyana joint

    i like estelle’s too

    don’t care about j holiday or PCD

  32. PerturbedHipHopFan

    I have Estelle’s SHINE and I love that album, but this song she didn’t really come that hard to me….I don’t like Pussycat Dolls…….at all…..The Missy song is not that hot either

    But what hell is wrong wit J. Holiday???? First he was about to SUFFOCATE now he havin a HEART ATTACK…..what the hell??? Get it together boo!!!!

  33. PEEPLPAYATTENSHUN

    MISSY’S SONG SOUNDS LIKE IT COULD BE DECENT, HER SHOUTING IN PIG LATIN WAS KINDA CLEVER…MADE ME PAY ATTENTION

    “These are the type of tracks ladies want to hear from him.”
    FOR SOME REASON I FOUND THIS SOPHA KING HILARIOUS…
    BUT THIS SONG IS DA BIDNESS

    WOW! I WAS NOT EXPECTIN THAT FROM ESTELLE, NICE CHANGE UP, I CAN SEE THE KIDS SNAPPIN TO THIS, IT HAS THAT “FRIENDLY VIBE”

    NO OPINION ON PCD

  34. fabizzle

    again Shine is not her debut album, its her sophmore!!
    although it is better then her first album, The 18th Day, which was also a solid project

  35. DR Vixen

    You HAVE to post Jai Ho by PCD…it’s such a hot track…I’m addicted!

  36. Woop... I hate haters, does that make me a hater..?

    Estelle and Missy’s choons are heavy. :) There need to be a thumbs up emoticon somewhere

    I like Bad Girl and Rihanna’s version but meh! w/eva

  37. K. Meyth

    Acutally with the Bad Girl Track….
    The one with Chris and Rih Rih was just a demo and it leaked.
    It was originally for the Pussycat Dolls. And it was specifically for the movie, as far as I know.

  38. jacci

    Missy’s track was ok, but she ganna need to come harder on a single

    J. holiday song is good…i love him :-) he keeps it real R&B, and thats needed right now in the music world.

    I didn’t listen to Estelles song….my bad

    Pussy’s at song was okay, but its typical from them…Rihanna’s sounded alot better although I’m not a huge fan of hers.

  39. Rexxx

    The Missy track COULD be serious, gotta hear the whole joint… but this is definitely the jumpoff that could get Block Party poppin’…. sounds like that’s not the final version though. meh at the rest.

  40. Tone

    Still sound like a Rihanna track to me, i like her version better. Why everyone so quick to judge and act when nothing has been officially reported. These are still two real people going through some real issue just like the rest of us have done and or now doing.

  41. tia

    love the j holiday track im just a huge fan of his so im not gonna hate

    i could barely hear the missy track over the extra ads but it sounded hype…cool i love missys videos more then anything sooo yeah

    pcd track is cool

  42. ☆ Lola A♏ ★

    The PCD version is on the soundtrack.

    I like Star

  43. Mr. Kane

    I like Rihanna’s version better but respect PCD!

    I DON’T HATE LIKE THESE OTHERS!!!

  44. BAARBIEE

    missy…not feelin it
    j-holidayy…WAAACKK
    estelle…LOVE IT&LOVE HERR:D
    pcd…WAAACKKK! I LIKE RHI’S RHI’S VERSION BETTER:D

  45. jDv

  48. SylentDreamz

    I love PCD, their lp is dope! I can’t wait to see them in concert this spring!

  49. mslac

    Tha PCD sounds better than the Rihanna, neither has anything special vocally

    The Missy is typical Missy of course Im not really feeling it

    J.Holiday: not feeling the song even though I am a fan of his

    Estelle: fresh and new vibe to r&b..Loves it

  50. deeda
