THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Anthony Hamilton feat. Keri Hilson – Never Let Go (full) – listen
Anthony Hamilton’s new album, Back to Love hits stores on December 13th and it seems as though he is keeping up with his consistent sound. Have a listen and what’s supposed to be the soul singer’s next single, featuring none other than singer/songwriter Keri Hilson.

Ester Dean – Death of Us (full) – listen
No stranger to demoing for other artists, it’s no surprised that Ester Dean, who is responsible for writing over half of Rihanna’s latest album, Talk That Talk, has demos leak all the time. Check out “Death of Us,” a leftover demo from the sessions of Rihanna’s new album.

K. Michelle – For My Cinderellas (full) – listen
Since the merger of Jive Records, K. Michelle has still be working on her debut album, Pain Medicine and remaining afloat with the release of mixtapes. The latest of her material to surface is the track, “For My Cinderellas.” Since she’s always working, there’s no telling whether or not this was even meant for her album.

JoJo – Last Heart Standing (full) – listen
Still waiting on JoJo’s often delayed third album, Jumping Trains, but it seems that tracks can’t help but to leak. A clearly unfinished pop track, “Last Heart Standing” just seems to be another demo that got lost in the sauce. Hopefully, we get Jumping Trains at the first quarter of next year.

THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

DJ Komori & Cassie – Sound of Love (full) – listen
Cassie has been making a splash back on the music scene. Check out this brand new track, produced by DJ Komori with the Bad Boy signee’s vocals. Although, always a fan of Cassie’s delivery, this production is a little overbearing. Something about the mix seems really loud.

Wale feat. Rick Ross & Kevin Cossom – Best Night Ever (full) – listen
Check out the latest from Wale, who is gearing up to release his sophomore album, Ambition. The new track features Maybach Music boss Rick Ross, as well as Miami-based singer/songwriter, Kevin Cossom, who is also working on his debut album. Wale’s album is set to hit stores November 1st.

Crystal Nicole – Haunted Heart (full) – listen
Songwriter Crystal Nicole, more widely known as Cristyle, is working on her debut album, so it’ll be interesting to see how much of the material that leaks is actually hers, considering being an accomplished songwriter. It’ll be difficult to tell whether or not these tracks are meant for her, or simply demos for other artists.

Candice Pillay feat. Shawnna – Dirty Diana (full) – listen
Has Atlanta-based producer Bangladesh found himself a new music in Candice Pillay? He produced her debut single, “Smooches,” featuring Kelly Rowland, now she brings us a track with former DTP signee Shawnna, entitled “Dirty Diana.” Little is known about Candice, but Bangladesh seems to have faith the new artist.

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.

THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Lil’ Wayne – Up, Up & Away (full) – listen
Lil’ Wayne just released his latest album, The Cater IV, but not without offering up his fans some bonus tracks that appear exclusive on the iTunes and Target releases of the album. Make sure you pick up your copies to get the extra sounds.

Kevin Cossom – Make Love Thru the Speakers (full) – listen
Check out new music from Kevin Cossom. “Make Love Thru the Speakers” was produced by Bangladesh. It’s been a minute since we’ve heard anything since his single with Fabolous and Diddy. I think it’s safe to say that the singer/songwriter has gone back to the drawing board for his solo project.

Estelle feat. Swizz Beatz, Jadakiss & Busta Rhymes – Break My Heart (Remix) (full) – listen
Estelle offers up the official remix to her single, “Break My Heart.” The Swizz Beatz production finds Estelle spitting a few bars, but that doesn’t come as much of a surprise, considering that the songbird started off as a rapper. Estelle’s new album, All of Me, is slated to drop this fall.

The Dream – Wake Me When It’s Over (full) – listen
Here’s another track for The Dream’s upcoming internet album, 1977, which he plans to release tomorrow, August 31st. The 11-track free album will proceed his fourth studio album, The Love, IV: Diary of a Madman, due to hit stores this fall.
