♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫

Chris Brown feat. Bow Wow & Pleasure P. - Can’t Let U Go (full) - listen
Chris offers up a bit of a sad-sap song intro on this new track, “Can’t Let U Go,” featuring Bow Wow and Pleasure P. No word on production credits, but there’s a lot of autotune used on Chris’s voice, even though he doesn’t really need it. Chris can actually sing. Autotune is to fix pitches, but it seems as though folks are abusing it and just using it as an effect. The song is alright, but word is, the material for his new album, Graffiti, which is supposed to hit at the top of next year, is much better. Bow Wow and Pleasure P.’s cameos aren’t much to talk about.

Donnie Klang - Stuck In My Head (full) - listen
Bad Boy signee and Making the Band 4 winner Donnie Klang has been given a second chance after the critical and fan flop from last year, Just A Rolling Stone. It seems as though “Stuck In My Head,” produced by Ansane, is the first official single from his upcoming sophomore release, which I haven’t heard any news about, considering that Diddy has been promoting his Last Train to Paris album, along with his reality show, Making His Band. The song is less Justin Timberlake than the last album.

Jordin Sparks - Landmines (full) - listen
Check out a bonus track from Jordin Sparks’s album, Battlefield. She just got off tour with the Jonas Brothers and is about to get back on the road, opening up for Britney Spears, with Kristiana DeBarge as a pre-act. This ballad showcases Jordin’s voice wonderfully. I actually think this would have fit in perfectly with the rest of the tracklisting for Battlefield, title and all. “Landmines” is a great jam.

Rock City - Let Me Kiss Ya (full) - listen
The brothers and writing team known as Rock City are constantly putting out heat for themselves and writing hits for others. The latest to drop from the boys is the Jugganauts-produced “Let Me Kiss Ya.” Even though it’s not the best of their material, it is definitely a dope/fun track. No word on when the duo’s album is dropping, but we need another single from them in a hurry!

Yes, auto tune is out of control. Now its being used by singers who can actually sing. This BS of a fad is just another excuse to keep promoting these non-singers who clearly have no business recording an album.

CB, Bow, and Pleasure P…….no…..every song does not sound good with autotune, when will these artists figure that out

Donnie Klang??????

Jordin Sparks song was cute

Rock City song was decent, but why the lyrics remind of Sammie’s “You Should Be My Girl”

I stay praying for Chris, but I don’t know if he is going to make it 5 years w/o being around Rihanna, guess we will have to stayed tuned. I like Jordin, go girl!

Dear Donnie, I thought u had given up due to your situation–u being with Bad Boy and everything. It was a good idea at first because u thought u would be Successful and I understand totally. Now I did not accept the challenges to listen to your last CD and I’m not setting myself up for this either!! Sooooo have a great day and make sure u get those applications for school together!!!

23.

LOLO

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 /

Like CB and Pleasure P’s verses… UGH to Bow Wow. The song would be relly good if they just take out the autotune. I see Jordin’s song getting alot of play on the radio but I personally don’t like it.The rock city song is just average. Lastly, I actually love Donnie’s song the most which is a surprise. Diddy is really doing him wrong.

Shout out to Rock City for repping our hometown, St. Thomas, VI. We see you and support you.

25.

ONLY REAL MUSIC ALLOWED

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 /

Donnie is still trying? Wow…Whose career will P Diddy destroy next?

No comment on CB. His voice is whiny and immature (just like him), so no wonder he has to hide it with autotune AGAIN.

JS: Brilliant vocals on her album. A pity people aren’t giving her a chance. When artists don’t rely on publicity stunts they usually flop like she has. She’s not making her label much money YET, but at least she has her decency.

Yeah, mad props to Rock City for reppin St. Thomas USVI! These guys are really talented, no joke. Love you and we got you!

I think Chris Brown needs to get rid of most of the auto tune on the song and it will sound a lil better. Besides that the song is HOT and I think Bow Wow could’ve done better but Pleasure P did his thang on this song.
Nice ;)

31.

Kyla

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 /

Chris Brown: Autotune.. ugh! The song would have sounded much better with out it! I actually like Bow Wow’s part.

Donnie Klang: Aww Donnie! I like him, forgot about him though. Hopefully this album isn’t a flop like the last one - the song is okay.

Jordin Sparks: It’s an alright song.

Rock City: LOL, are they serious? Out of all four songs this is the only one I didn’t listen to fully.

Not a Fan

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 /

I’m not a fan of Jordin but she has the pop scene on lock. I’m not really checking for her music. Actually I prefer Kelly Clarkson, why not but her on the CL instead of Jordin, if you’re gonna showcase this type of music. Not to take anything away from her though cause she does sound good.

“Chris can sing”… lost all credibility with that one. Still can’t get over his faint Kiley from 3LW lisp. Good luck to him tho… I love watching him on mute.

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 /

Donnie- you should find another record label and take Day 26 with you! Can’t ya see Bad Boy doesn’t care bout there artist!
Chris- I think you should take a year or two and work on YOURSELF!!!! And hire a new PR person cuz they are not doing you any good.
You are really losing alot of creditablity with your fans.

The only thing from Rock City I heard and liked was “Heart Breaker” and Donnie I wasn’t feeling the song but I still have hope you’ll churn out some good tune. He had a few good songs on his album so I’m staying optimistic.

Stop using the autotune on Chris’ voice. If he’s supposed to be leaving where MJ left off, he needs to leave that kid shit alone. That’s TPain’s shit.
Donnie - is a wrap - he’s corny.
Love, Jordan - she needs some non-nickelodeon shit.
Other group don’t need to be mentioned.

I liked the Chris Brown joint until mid-way when I heard all that auto-tune.. Why!! That probably would of been the fall banger. Maybe they’ll re-record it without the autotune
