CASSIE SIT YOUR ASS DOWN: PART II

August 13th, 2006

So Cassie released a statement via her myspace blog, stating that the media was “absolutely ruthless and will do ANTHING to tear people down.” True, but she can’t blame anyone for that horrible performance she did on 106 & Park last week; talking about she had stage fright! I just find it funny how she didn’t really address that shit..

Anyway, here is her statement:

Yo, some things need to be cleared up right now. First off I’d like to say that the media is absolutely ruthless and will do ANTHING to tear people down. This week particularily has been the worst with media for me. They’ve released statements that I never said about the intentions of my first single ‘Me & U.’ I never said that the song is about oral sex. Take it as you wish, I NEVER SAID THAT, EVER! Second, this week I had an interview on New York radio, first with Angie Martinez and then later with Funk Master Flex on Hot 97. What I said with both Angie and Flex was what I said, but all of it was taken out of context when sites such as Vibe.com decided to write about it. I never said that Pharrell could get it, I said that he was cute and that was on the Angie Martinez show. Also on Angie’s show, I said that I didn’t have time for guys and that is exactly what I meant. It’s not that people aren’t good enough or however some of you may have taken it. I’M BUSY, STRAIGHT UP. I never said that I didn’t like Ciara, I am actually a HUGE FAN of hers. I said that I didn’t understand why we are compared, not only because I’m only on my first single, but because our styles are much different, she’s soooooo talented, why would I discredit her? Lets be real.

THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

August 13th, 2006

   

Cheri Dennis – Showdown (full) – download
This is supposedly Cheri Dennis’s second single. Definitely not as energetic and infectious as “I Love You.” I’m not sure how I feel about this song. It just doesn’t sound like a hit to me. I feel a little bad for her. With all of Diddy’s work with Cassie and Danity Kane, it just seems like he left Cheri to the wolves. He even gave one of her songs to Danity Kane (“Back Up” – which was super hot). I don’t know, it just seems a little unfair.

Sunshine Anderson – Something I Wanna Give You (full) – download
I got a lot of people e-mailing about this song. I really love it, so I guess now it’s time that I posted it. Sunshine Anderson is coming back, and this song is pretty much a good introduction back into the industry. I know some of you guys are going to hate me for bringing this up, but she’s signed to Daddy Knowles’s label. I hope he gives her the play she deserved. I always liked Sunshine.

Brandy makes some very animated faces as she chats on her cell phone while having lunch by herself at Crustacean Restaurant in Beverly Hills, Ca. The singer/actress is enjoying some new popularity as one of a trio of judges on the new reality series America’s Got Talent.

VIDEO: CHERISH – UNAPPRECIATED

August 12th, 2006

Here is the new video & 2nd single from Cherish, Unappreciated. I like these girls. But what’s up with that sitting on the stoop thing? Isn’t that the same steps from IMX’s video for First Time?

Thanx afro-jamaicano!
