TAMIA’S NEW ALBUM & SINGLE ON THE WAY!

With the year drawing to an end, not many R&B singers are scheduled to release new albums. However, one of our favorite singers from the 90s/early 2000s is finally making her music comeback after 5 years.

According to Tamia’s publicist, Michelle Huff, the “Stranger in My House” singer will be releasing her newest single at the end of this month! What’s even more exciting is that her upcoming album is rumored to be titled Beautiful Surprise:

This will be Tamia’s 5th studio album following the release of Between Friends in 2006. At least we know that a real R&B artist will be making a comeback in 2012. Who else is happy to hear this besides me? Can’t wait, Tamia!

THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Tank feat. Keri Hilson – She Got That (full) – listen
Material from Tank leaks so frequently because he’s always in the studio, writing and recording for himself as well as other artists. It’s no telling where this latest track comes from, considering that Tank recently released a brand new first single from his upcoming studio album, Savior.

Kevin Cossom – I Know You’ve Been Hurt (full) – listen
Singer/songwriter Kevin Cossom is still working out the kinks of his debut project. More and more material seems to be surfacing from the famed songwriter, potentially from his first album. It’s not a wonder though, considering that Kevin has relationships with some of the hottest producers in the game right now.

Jazmine Sullivan – Fly & Sexy (full) – listen
It seems like ever since she went on her Twitter rant about taking a break from music, an unreleased track from Jazmine Sullivan’s catalog seems to surface. It seems like every week, there’s a new leak or two from her. It’s interesting to hear the songs that she scrapped for her first two albums. Maybe we can get Jazmine back in the game soon. Her voice is too dope to go to waste.

Ne-Yo feat. Trey Songz & T-Pain – The Way You Move (full) – listen
Check out brand new music from Ne-Yo, who has randomly been jumping on a lot of remixes lately, much like Trey Songz, who is also featured on this new track, “The Way You Move,” which is reportedly supposed to appear on DJ Boy Wonda’s upcoming mixtape, Tough Love.
