Keith Sweat released his tenth studio album just last year to little fanfare despite the radio-friendly “Test Drive”, which featured fellow R&B crooner Joe. He’s ready to give it another go and is offering up an Open Invitation, set to hit stores November 1. Check out the new single, “Make You Say Ooh”, and let us know what you think.
Lil’ Jon remixes Beyoncé’s latest single, “Best Thing I Never Had” by tracking her original vocal with a sample of The Gap Band’s “Outstanding,” and a rap verse by Shawty Putt. The track comes from Bey’s latest album, 4, which has already been certified platinum and is in stores now.
Meet Sabi. This Warner Brother Records singer/rapper made her first appearance to the music scene not too long ago when she was one-half of the L.A duo The Bangz. Now after being featured on Britney Spears’ “(Drop Dead) Beautiful” and opening for her, Sabi is stepping out on her own with a new pop/rock track, “Wild Heart”, produced by the Dream Machine (aka Henry “Cirkut” Walter and Adrien “AG” Gough) and written by the one and only Ester Dean.
Meet MBK/J. Records latest signee, Elle Varner. The daughter of two published songwriters and graduate of NYU graces us with her J. Cole-assisted first single, “Only Wanna Give It To You,” a fun ’90′s-esque throwback.
The musical prodigy, who plays piano, flute and guitar, is presently working on her debut studio album, which has been said to hit stores later on this year.
