♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

♫ Brandy – Love Me the Most (full) – listen
Here’s a new track that was leaked from Brandy’s Human sessions. It’s supposedly produced by Bryan-Michael Cox, who was initially supposed to be executive produce Brandy’s latest effort. The song is similar to the last cut on Brandy’s album, “Fall.” In any event, I always think that Brandy’s voice sounds amazing on any track that she touches, but I’m not sure whether or not it fit in with the overall feel of the album. Brandy, however, is already in the studio working on new material with Tricky Stewart. Should be interesting.

♫ Teairra Mari – Deja Vu (full) – [removed]
Teairra Mari is still on the promo trail for her sophomore album. I was hoping that she would be getting a little more promo with her new songs, but it seems as though it’s not taking off as quickly as I had hope. I’m not sure what’s going on with her project, At That Point, but new music is leaking. “Deja Vu” is not the best of the new material, but it’s produced by The Movement and still carries that pop/R&B sound that Teairra has been going for this go ’round.

♫ Jarvis – Superman (full) – listen
Another artist who has been laying low. Disturbing Tha Peace’s Jarvis dropped a single last summer, but we never heard anything else from him. Here’s the new track, “Superman,” which takes from the popular Souljaboy song “Crank Dat.” The song was produced by Jazze Pha, and you can definitely hear him on the background vocals during the chorus. I’m hoping that DTP decided to put the time and energy (and money) into his project, because they haven’t been making much noise with any of their artists, aside from Ludacris…

♫ Johnta Austin – I’m A Mess (full) – listen
I think that Johnta Austin is a very talented songwriter — probably one of the most successful in the game, but it seems as though he just can’t break into the industry as an artist. And with all these writers and producers putting out albums (Keri Hilson, The Dream on his second, Ryan Leslie, etc.), Austin has to feel some kind of way with suffering from Sean Garrett syndrome. Ocean Drive has songs leaking left and right, but seems as though it will never see the light of day. His material isn’t bad, and his voice isn’t half bad either… so why can’t Johnta catch on?

    @ 32 STOP Hating!
    @36 Beyonce DID NOT come out about two years after brandy she came out in the late 90′s and Brandy has been in the game since 93, Had her own sitcom for 6 seasons, played the first African American Cinderella which was the highest rating CBS has had ever in the history of television, Never Say Never went four times platinum and so did her debut album. Brandy is the closest voice compared to the GREAT Whitney Houston. Get your facts straight. Listen to Brandy’s older stuff she has that same soulful raspy tone as Whitney. IE: Sunny Day, Always on My Mind, Baby. Brandy is a TRUE artist and can’t be compared to any other artist out now. What’s sad is that her music is timeless and some people just don’t realize that. She is the definition of true music and Real R&B. She is talented with a GOD given gift and I support her in everything she does.

  2. R3TROSEXUAL

    Brandy is a vocal genius. She slays every track with her tone,runs,harmonies, melodies and PURE emotion and Talent. She does no wrong in my eyes.

  3. LaLa

    Go Brandy show these “SO CALLED” R&B singers how to record an amazing song. I totally agree with 61!

  4. jAZZYjazmine

    I Love Brandy’s Voice.

  7. yd18

    I dont get the hype over brandy voice…she can sing…but yall acting like shes the best…and then somebody said she the closes to whitney voice…WHAT!!!!…. because brandy see her az her inspiration doesnt mean shes the closes to her…..

  8. R&B LOVER

    @ 36 BIG VON. Brandy’s whole album is worth listening. And Beyonce’s career is no where near the lenght of brandys. brandy been in the game since the early 90′s. nobody knew about beyonce till 1998. brandy is a veteran in the music game. Shes been in it for 16 years now. And we all know who the true artist is and who has a better voice.

  9. Staci$tace

    yd18. yes the closet to whitneys tone. not the way whitney blows and hits those notes but the closst to her soulful R&B tone. if you listen to some of her older stuff you will hear it. you can see thwere the influence came from whitney and kim burrel.

    Jarvir- cute boy…song is too young for me

    Johnta- His song is actually nice, But I agree w/everyone who said after he tried to play Christina & HE dosnt even have an album…its a wrap! Stick to songwriting buddy!

  15. BIG VON

  16. Kyla

    Is there a real reason why Beyonce’s name came up? SERIOUSLY stop thinking about her 24/7 move on to something IMPORTANT!!!!! Anyways Brandy has a voice like no other all these other females have to do special things in the studio to make their voice sound a certain way Brandy don’t!!!!!!!!!! For all theese people who think Beyonce is the best that’s yaws opinion, but don’t expect everybody in the whole world to feel the same way!!!!!!

  17. FallBackHaters

    @ #74- I don’t understand why the songs are always removed either, because all you have to do is serach YOUTUBE and they’re on there LOL.

    Brandy’s song is hot, but y’all need to stop with the Beyonce comparisons. Beyonce is at the top of her game and it’s been that way since she’s stepped on the scene. END OF!

  18. Ebonyladibug

    I LOVE BRANDY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU GO GIRL!! PEOPLE STILL DONT GIVE MY GIRL THE CREDIT SHE DESERVES…THE FACT IS..BRANDY HAS HITS FOR DAYZZZZZZZZ

  19. missdiva

    LOL AT THESE BRANDY FANS SIGNING IN TO HYPE HER UP……..AND TRYING TO THROW HER DOWN PEEPS THROAT……….BRANDY SINGING IS AVERAGE AT BEST…NOT GREAT…BUT NOT BAD…RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE AND THATS ALLL!

  20. seemeinlights

    I actually like the Johnta song. His voice is ok. I think that Tyrese or tank coulda really blew the heck outta this song.

  21. seemeinlights

    Brandy’s song is super beautiful! Love it. Keep dong it Brandy.

  22. 1*STEP*AHEAD

    I AGREE BRANDY’S VOICE IS BEAUTIFUL.

    & MISS DIVA…NO ONE IS THROWING HER DOWN YOUR THROAT. SHE WAS IN THE POST SO WE’RE GIVING OUR OPINION. IF YOU’RE NOT FEELING IT, COOL..KEEP IT MOVING MA.

    & IF YOU’RE A HATER YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE YOU CAN THROW DOWN YOUR THROAT

  23. Mia

    @ 79 Sounds like the same exact thing people do for Beyonce!!!! They be over hyping her shoving her down people’s throat just to buy her album!!! So you can’t talk cuz the same thing goes for Beyonce!! I don’t see where people are overhyping Brandy she barely gets the credit she deserves so beat it!!!!!

  24. LoveMuffin

    Brandy’s song is nice. I hate how she is looked over.

    Idk why Teirra Marie looked like Laila Ali in that picture at first glimpse. ROTFL..dont ask!

    “Jarvis”… N E X T –>

    Johnta is a nice, funny guy and all but his voice is sort of weak sounding to me. Maybe he’s just missing something. Didn’t quite like the song either.

  25. London

    I agree No 10, the Brandy joint sounds like Chris Breezy’s ‘Hard To Say Goodbye, I think cuz both songs were produced by B. Cox, not really feeling it though.

    The Jarvis song is for Tweens.

    I think Johnta can sing but I dont like him on that song, I think the song would be more suited for someone like Trey Songz. I like Johnta’s vocals on Bow Wow’s song ”You Can Get It All”

  26. pring

    B. COX DIDN’T PRODUCE THE BRANDY JOINT, ERIC HUDSON DID.

  27. Soup

    I’m not sure why but Brandy’s song reminded of rihanna’s We Ride. Brandy is definitely overlooked and underrated. That woman is in her own league. It’s one thing to not like an artist, but it’s another to continuously try to discredit them just to hype your favorite. It doesn’t take away anthing to give credit where credit is due. People need to grow up.

  28. Dr.D

    I LOVE JOHNTA! this song is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I listen to it ALL the time on JD’s site!

  29. derrick

    love brandys voice1 song is dry!!!

  30. SERIOUSLY?

    PLZ DNT KNOCK BEYONCE, CIARA, RIHANNA, KERI OR WHOEVER JUST BECAUSE THE ARTISTS YOU LIKE HASN’T LAUNCHED LIKE THEY HAVE.. THEY’RE ALL GOOD IN THEIR OWN RIGHT SOME MORE THAN OTHERS BUT IT’S NOT THEIR FAULT THAT THE PERSON YOU LIKE DOESN’T GET AS MUCH ATTENTION. THEY WORK HARD AND WHY WOULDN’T THEY?

    P.S YES BRANDY WAS OUT BEFORE BEYONCE BUT THIER CAREERS HAVE WENT IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS N BOTH ARE RESPECTFUL ARTISTS BE FAIR! JUST BECAUSE YOU LIKE ONE DOESN’T MEAN U HAVE TO HATE THE OTHER!!!

    BRANDY’S SONG IS A COOL LIL JOINT

    JARVIS’S SONG IS COOL.. WANNA HEAR MORE VOCALS THO. HE GOTTA PROVE HIS SELF FOR ME TO BE A FAN

    JOHNTA AUSTIN’S SONG IS AIGHT..

  31. taivonjovonnie
