♫ Johnta Austin – Close Your Eyes
Singer/songwriter Johnta Austin never released his debut album, Ocean Drive, but he’s gearing up for a new project.
The lead single, “Close Your Eyes” (produced by Bryan-Michael Cox and Jermaine Dupri) comes from his forthcoming new project, Love Sex Religion, which he plans to release some time this year.


Sounds like everything else out today!
who…?
# 1 AND #2… BE CAREFUL. JOHNTA IS MY BOO AND FAVORITE SINGER/ SONGWRITER…
THE SONG IS COOL. DOESN’T TOP MATERIAL THAT WAS ON OCEAN DRIVE BUT IT’S COOL. I CAN’T WAIT FOR THIS PROJECT, I WILL DEFINITELY BUY THE ALBUM!!!
“BE CAREFUL. JOHNTA IS MY BOO AND FAVORITE SINGER/ SONGWRITER…”
LMFAO!!! Yeah, OK. Whatever. What are you gonna do??? LOLOL.
The stuff people say behind a computer screen.
Anyway, this song is wack. It’s the same as every other, played out song on the radio now. But what can you expect. no one wants to be original these days. It’s all about the business, not about the art.
I heard the single, “Close Your Eyes” the other day & I’m still wondering where I can download it! I must say, I just jumped on the bandwagon of knowing of Johnta’s music! I’ve downloaded, “Lil More Lovin” loved the sound! Johnta, you have a new fan in Phoenix, Az.
Love it and love him. Lifers stand up!!!!
First Johnta my man love the song.
Wish him the best in whatever he does.
Johnta’s version of “Hood Love” with Mary J. actually sounds better than Trey Song.
Ummmm…. Nothin stands out for me. It’s not a bad song though. *shrugs*
@ 1 + 2. this comes from the same guy who wrote most of Mariah Carey’s last two albums
and Usher’s ‘Confessions’
Love this track! Finally this talented Singer/Songwriter is gonna get some shine
Well he needs yo write better shit for him self, cuz this is wack! Cuz you make good music for other people doesn’t mean you have the knack to make music for yourself! Love to see how people are brainwashed on the Digital sound bullshit!
For the person saying he wrote her last two albums, I see why she is getting drooped from her label, plus her last wo album were the worse of her career!
he wrote most of trey songz music too.
Johnta wrote on Mariah’s Emancipation of MiMi which was one of her last two albums and it was successful BIONICBROTHA83. Know what your talking about before you speak up. Tricky and Dream wrote Mariah’s EM2 which was her last one which bricked. And Mariah is not getting drop, she’s working on an album now, so it would be hard for her to get dropped. But back to the song it’s cool, some real R&B for the ladies.

He wrote “We Belong Together” & “Shake It Off” on the Emancipation of Mimi album for Mariah back in ’05. The Dream wrote the last album for her.
I could care less! I don’t like the way it sounds! To generic for me! I like music that utilizes real instruments! So I will continue to support people like Janelle Monae! People how are not following a trend, or wanting to stay current to make a dollar! Not to generalize, but it seems to me that most people born in the 90′s don’t really know what real music is! Trust me Auto-tune and computers ARE not a substitute for it! Well he should at least make better music for himself, cuz this is just to ABC-123!!!
Janelle Monae is dope! But a bunch of groups from the 90′s such as Guy, Boyz 2 Men, & Jodeci used drum machines and synthesized music. Their music was NOT live instruments. I understand what you’re saying though. But the days of the Al Green’s & Marvin Gaye’s are gone. Sad but true.
In the 90′s though the music was still good! It made you feel good, it had that spark! Now it just sucks! What’s missing is real talent, and artistry!
johnta is so talented.i am so glad his cd is finally coming out
Who the hell is this little R.Kelly wannabe. HORRIBLE!!!

I came across an online community for individual seeking interracial love. It is ^***=═══════════════════════╮
w/w/w. Mixed Passion.c/o/m
╰══════════════════════════╯^^^^All singles there are seeking interracial relationships. Interracial is not a problem there, but a great merit to cherish!
@BIONICBROTHA83 People like you are frustrating to read because i am in the music industry. Times have changed man to say sounds like everything else out is so vague and whiney.. if you dont like somehting why put it down.. Suggest how to make it better.. I get so tired of people saying the music industry is dead but lady gaga just went diamond. or i wish it was back in the 90s.. Guess what if some of those groups came out now with the same music they still wouldnt sell because of downloading and itunes.. The old days are gone .. are you just gonna complain about it . As far as real music is concerned. I dont think Jonelle Monae is even hot. I haven’t heard anything from her thats dope .. People want something different so bad they graviatate to it.. but it’s still has to be hot…
HIS FIRST SONG HE WROTE WAS TYRESSE “SWEET LADY” WHEN HE WAS 16
well this digital shit is going to die to! cuz it changes too! fuck real is real! music today sucks! Lady Gaga is nothing new!
