Yes, the love as a battlefield metaphor is
more overdone than swag + hater x 100, but
Mayer’s stoic delivery on most of these songs makes you feel like he really doesn’t care about the romantic firefight. So the loud passionate vocals you normally get with these types of releases are replaced...

With her new EP The Fame Monster, an
8 track release you can either buy separate from
or as an addendum to the re-release of The Fame, Gaga takes a dip into the murky side of that same world she spoke of on her debut. Some of the lyrics are dark and cryptic, others are soft and emotional...

The once reserved, light-hearted songstress is now a
much more mature, experienced woman who knows a bit
about love and heartbreak. On her latest release The Fall, Jones takes you on an unforeseen journey, both emotionally and musically.

“Russian Roulette,” “Hard,” “G4L” [Gangsta 4 Life], and
“Fire Bomb” all sound like song titles that wouldn’t
be out of place on any of your favorite rapper’s albums today. But they aren’t from an emcee; these are titles from songs on Rihanna’s fourth studio album. This “good girl gone bad” has ...

Starting your career at the top of your
game can be both a blessing and a curse.
It’s a blessing in the sense that you make your mark immediately, a curse in the sense that you peak at the very beginning. Your first release helps to revolutionize a genre or medium seemingly overnight...

The first listen to Keyshia Cole’s retro power
ballad, “Desperate Measures,” will probably elicit a chorus of
whatever’s from the grown woman peanut gallery. Of course, simply having the word desperate in the title will turn off a few. It’s truly the last word the average chick wants associated ...

Well thankfully Stimuli chose to float on even
without Hov or JD providing the wind for his
sails and the product of that persistence and pain is his much anticipated, splendidly formulated and emotionally powerful debut studio LP, My Soul to Keep

The extent to which Echo follows Clive Davis’
potent formula for transcending stardom pushes it into the
realm of unoriginality. Echo, in essence, is just an ‘echo” of Mariah Carey circa 1990, when she was young, fresh and new, killing the game with her impressive, mottled vocal range. Consider ...

Listening to Transition makes a few things very
clear. Leslie is a master of production. He knows
what fits with what and how to layer different sounds wonderfully. He understands understated elegance as well. His less is more foundations eliminate all of that phonic busyness some producers fall

Wale's newest album has all the pieces, wide
range of topics, credible mc skills, solid production and
guest spots. What's missing?

Fast forward to 2009 and you find Amerie
in the proverbial sink or swim situation. Some see
her has a unique persona with actual talent in a female R&B landscape that relies more on production than vocals. Others see her as another generic singer in the grand pop scheme....

Recently we all heard of the back taxes
owed to the IRS, the past child support judgments
against him by his first child’s mother, and more recently his costly divorce from Kelis. While all these financial setbacks have shocked many, I wasn’t surprised one bit. What many don’t know or ignore

The Edge is a melting pot of styles,
as varied as her musical taste would allow. Though
the fusion isn’t always seamless, the album offers a cornucopia of soulful pop hits, with a hint of reggae and Hip-Hop. The album’s second single, “It Kills Me” is the only true-to-form R&B track, ...

BISD is his attempt to get back in
the good graces of his fans, and for the
most part it is a 50 Cent that you are familiar with: at his best with his teeth clenched uttering guttural syllables to driving, thumping beats and annoyingly off when he overtly aims for the club/chick song...
