THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Sorry for the lack of updates, guys… it’s been a while. I’ve been having some computer and internet trouble, and have missed out on posting a lot of good (and bad) music. I hope everything’s been alright with you guys. Hopefully all is worked out now.

Ciara feat. Will.I.Am – Do It (full) – download
I’m assuming that this is an outtake from “The Evolution.” Again, like it’s other bonus tracks, I can definitely see why this was left off the album. Ciara is so good for the sing-talk, but I guess it works for her. “Do It” is produced by Will.I.Am and it sounds pretty much like all the other materials he produced on her album, Black Eyed Peas’ album and the tracks on Kelis’s album. From all the unreleased material I’ve heard from “Evolution,” I think Ciara did a pretty good job making track cuts.

Rico Love – Boy, Stop! (full) – download
If you haven’t heard of Rico Love, he’s one of Usher’s artists, on Usher’s Atlanta-based Us Records. If you’ve been visiting CL for a while, you’ve probably heard some track he’s been featured on. As much of his other material, “Boy, Stop” is produced by the Corner Boyz, whose production are all starting to run together for me. If it doesn’t sound like something else they’ve done, it sounds like someone else’s production.

Diddy had everybody and they mama jump up on this remix. I have to admit when I first heard the original version of this song I was like, “OH LAWD!! Diddy is trying to sing again!” But surprisingly it grew on me and I jam to it from time to time. The remix ain’t all that, but I’ll let yall decide. Oh and if you didn’t know, this is a CL exclusive homie!

The track features: Keyshia Cole, Yung Joc, The Game, Big Boi, and Rich Boy…

NEW MUSIC: RIHANNA FT. NE-YO – “HATE THAT I LOVE YOU”

According to Rap-up.com, this song will be featured on Rihanna’s upcoming album, “Good Girl Gone Bad.” The singer added her friend Ne-Yo to the track, and he most likely wrote it as well. It definitely has that Ne-Yo mellow groove to it.

I was actually starting to feel Rihanna’s new vibe, so hopefully she has more tracks similar to “Umbrella” on the album. Check it out.
