MUSIC NEWS: SADE WORKING ON NEW ALBUM / DRAKE SPEAKS ON RIHANNA / OMARION SIGNS TO YOUNG MONEY

Wednesday, June 3, 2009

According to Billboard, Sade is recording her first album of new material since 2000’s Lovers Rock.

Known for her long delays between releases, Sade and the group that bears her name are in the studio. Although Sony has not set a release date, the label hopes the record will be out by the end of 2009.

“She is in the studio and the album will come when it is ready,” a source at Sony told Billboard. “You don’t wait for years for one and then rush it.”

R&B crooner Maxwell, who’s releasing a record soon after a long hiatus, is said to have heard snippets of Sade’s new music. He sent a message via Facebook saying, “Trust me, it’s so monolithic it’ll shake you in your shoes!” Can’t wait!

DRAKE SPEAKS ON RIHANNA

Rihanna is busy prepping her upcoming album and has enlisted rising rapper Drake to help. In a recent interview with DJ Semtex, Drake revealed that he’s actually writing for Rihanna right now.

“I’ve never in my mind felt like, “Oh I could probably write something crazy for Rihanna,” that wasn’t my first thought. But being put up to the task, we’re coming up with some special stuff. It’s crazy,” Drake says.

Rumors hit the web that the two were doing more than making music together, but neither has confirmed or denied it. Drake said, “We’re young. We’re just having fun and enjoying life. That’s all.”

Drake is also working on his own debut, Thank Me Later, and said he’s looking forward to working with Jay-Z, Kanye West and Lil Wayne. According to Billboard, Drake is close to signing a deal with Universal Motown in one of the biggest bidding wars ever.

OMARION SIGNS TO YOUNG MONEY

After being dropped from Columbia last year, Omarion has signed to Lil Wayne’s Young Money imprint.

Posting on his Twitter, he said:

Thanks 4 all tha love yall!! Young money! Omarion!! You will believe and see God’s power!! I’m so humble I kant wait 2 give yall tha new me.

According to SoudScan, Omarion’s last album, 2007’s “Face Off,” the collaborative project with Bow Wow, has sold 365,000 copies in the United States.

“Jezebel” and “Is it a Crime” carry serious weight….Those Sade songs are crucial!

Love Sade, her music is so sexy, sensual, and smooth, anticipating the release of her new cd. I’ve seen her live in concert, she does’nt do a lot of hard dancing, but she simply captivates the audience. She has such a unique vocal style. She ’s just so smoooooth!!!

Sade-So glad she’s coming back! A true representation of elegance and quality music. Her return was long over due but very much appreciated and needed in this messed up industry. Welcome back!

Drake-I haven’t totally fell for the his hype and I could care less if him and Rihanna are kicking it. His mixtapes are pretty cool though. I’ll give his album a listen.

Omarion- Don’t care for his music, and if he really did say what I heard he said, he’s an idiot. Most of the fan base he had left are offended as they should be and may be gone. I personally think skin tone preferences is sad and a just politically correct way of saying you are color struck whether you say you’re only attracted to light or dark. A person can be attractive no matter what shade, so saying you are only attracted to one skin tone is just stupid. Again that’s just my opinion. Those Willie Lynch letters sure did it’s damage on our people even centuries later. SMH!

You’re right, she’ll do her little 2 step, turn in a circle real slow, maybe a little side step and have the audience eatting out of her hand. She is so pretty, has that exotic look going on, and her band is so tight, they sound good.

First Maxwell making a comeback, and now Sade? 2009 is the year for GOOD MUSIC. I’m so glad there hear this. Thanks CL!

I like Drake’s response to the questions about him and Rihanna. People really need to grow up and stop assuming whether a celebrity is dating another celebrity just because they’ve been seen out and about together. And if they are dating so what? Like he said, they’re young and they just want to have fun and enjoy life. Don’t we all want that?

Omarion? Young Money? Whoop-dee-friggin-do. Omarion lost cool points from me when he did that sloppy collab with Bow Wow.

i heard about that since the b2k days that omarion felt that way about darkskin women. One of his songs on his cd talked about girl impressed and its not because your lightskinned, he said. That made people question too.

Drake is really doing his thing right now and he doesn’t need that hot mess drama known as rihanna in his life ending his career!

On the Gaymarion tip here’s some advice” you shouldn’t do stupid things that don’t sit well with your fans. Especially before your album comes out!Example: spectacular aka sexi-spec video LOL

Don’t you idiots learn from each other!

Sade is a living legend her music is timeless a voice that cannot be duplicated..so glad shes back in the studio creating new material. Sade is the definition of REAL music! Most 80’s babys were conceived to her songs. I havent heard any hate about Sade cause that would just be irrelevant her music is too good. One of the Greats!

SADE!!!! Nuff said, the rest of this post is irrelevant to me. Just seeing that one name is enough!

Man they (cause Sade is the name of the group as a whole too!) are so amazing. Her voice is like nothing else I’ve ever heard. It’s so rich, so layered and textured and it’s like she’s seducing you with it. Like her vocal chords were lined with gold or something.

By Your Side, No Ordinary Love and Sweetest Taboo are my favourites.
