♫ Mario feat. Gucci Mane & Sean Garrett – Break Up (full) – listen
I’m a little confused about Mario’s project. From the sounds on the last updates he gave us, he said he was going to scale down the amount of producers that he’s working with on the new album, but it seems as though there are a lot of producers he’s working with this time around. The new song, “Break Up” is produced by Bangladesh, and is written by Sean Garrett. I’m not mad at the song, it’s just that something sounds a tad unfinished about it.
♫ Ciara – Kiss My Swag (full) – listen
Ciara’s Fantasy Ride finally has a solid release date of May 5th and it seems as though it finally has developed a definite sound too. Judging from this Darkchild production and the current single, “Love Sex Magic,” Ciara is going for a more pop/dance album, which isn’t surprising. There’s a lot of synths and electronic elements on a lot of the newer material that’s leaked. Although I’m pretty tired of the word “swag,” I can’t say that this song bothers me. Great dance track.
