Usher tomorrow.

There's this one slow song that leaked that is really good. And I like Love In The Club remix WAY BETTER than I like the original.

I may not buy it tomorrow, but I will have it by the end of the week.

Usher's new CD is very ballad-heavy, but I like it. Marriage and fatherhood has really changed him a lot. 9 out of 10

I liked it as well. It's a whole different vibe from him.

Just a pet peeve: Will.I.Am really needs to stick to rapping on BEP records only. That rap was a real WTF moment for me.

I agree...the remix is better than the original version.

Anyone pick up the new Ashanti?

I haven't heard it yet, but I've heard good things about Aww Baby's album.

I did get Usher's album over the weekend. THE MAN IS OFFICIALLY WHOOPED. I didn't expect another Confessions, but I was a little disappointed. Trading Places was good (that's the song I couldn't think of the other day) and well as the title track (which I loved). I may have to hear it more times before I get used to this new Usher.

I've heard Moving Mountains and I am NOT feeling it. :(

Wasn't really feeling that either. I was excited that he did a song with Jigga and didn't feel that one either. :( Today I heard a song he took out of the album with Michael Jackson :D and T-Pain :rolleyes:. That one wasn't that great either.

I picked it up this morning, and it's surprisingly good. Some of the ballads were pretty decent, especially Girlfriend and her duet with Robin Thicke. There was a song she did with Akon that I wasn't too crazy about, though. Overall, the CD's not that bad.

I may be late but...

have yall heard the song "I need you bad" by Jazmine Sullivan? She hasn't gained much recognition, but this song is relatively new on the radio. I love her voice. She has a very rich, soulful sound.

Jazmine Sullivan is the truth. That girl has a voice out of this world.

I JUST saw this video just now -- it was cute! I felt like it stayed true to the spirit of School Daze without trying to be JUST like it.

YEEESSSSSSS!!! I was just about to type that girl!!!! That girl....wheeeew...she is the truth....does anyone know about her album???

No info about an album yet, but I found another one of her tracks online ("I'm in Love With Another Man"), and it's FIRE!!!


Just picked up N*E*R*D this week; that CD is HOT!!! It's been on repeat in my car all week!

I really like that new Ashanti !!

Some music news...

Listening to Dwele's new CD...another hot one!!!

Yeah I cant wait to get it.........but its something about his music that bores me after a listen or two.

Listening to it, right now. It's aight. :cool:

It is; "Sketches" is good, but "Some Kinda" will always be my all-time favorite.

Someone jacked me for my "Some Kinda" :( I'm still rocking that "Subject" though! I LOVE that CD!!

Victor Duplaix is cool.
Eric Roberson Live is great too!

"Looking for Love" gets a lot of play on my iPod :cool: I'm glad I ran across his music.

I dig Duplaix. Very mellow sound. It's great when I'm just laying on the couch chilling.

@ bolded: of course he is. It's ERIC ROBERSON!!! :D

Digging the new Chante Moore. :cool:

Any new recommendations?

I MAY pick up Eric Benet's (when released).

Is anyone else feeling Ryan Leslie? You Tube him!

Still stuck on Erykah Badu's newest. When is Pt 2 supposed to be coming out?

^^^ Last month. :rolliingeyesseriously:

Ryan Leslie: Is that the guy who has the video about a ring? He's performing on a stage and at the end, he gets into a limo? :confused:

No. I didn't youtube him. :p

Cody Chestnutt anyone? He's OOOOOLD news, but I've recently been giving him more play on the iPod. Still loving The Headphone Masterpiece.

I'm behind in music purchases, but the Adele is the bomb. Her album, 19, has also been in repeat. Duffy is also cute, though I like Adele more. I need to purchase Dwele's new one ASAP. Anyone excited about JHud or Jazmine Sullivan?

I've only heard one song from Cody Chestnutt that I REALLY REALLY liked, "No One Will."

I'm anxiously awaiting Jazmine Sullivan! That girl can sAAAAng!

Did you know Lala Hathaway has a new release? "Self Portrait." I listened to a few songs in the music store, ...it's nice but I wasn't in the mood to buy it. I may swoop on it later.

What I did buy....David Hollister's newest gospel CD -- Witness Protection. It's real nice!! and, since I didn't know it was his second gospel CD (didn't know he had any gospel projects out there), I bought his first one also. It's nice as well (what I've hold so far), but the newest one is tight.

Yeah. Lalah's project came out earlier this summer.

Lalah's album is real smooth. Great Sunday afternoon music.

...see, I'm all late. and I thought I was making a GC contribution. :o:D

For the music lover in all of you, Songs In The Key of Life. Great blog written by a TRUE music lover!

raphael saadiq's new cd drops in september. :cool:

maxwell to perform in H-Town November 7th. :D i guess the new cd is dropping this fall.

I can't wait for that. And Erykah's new one too. :D

DAMMIT! That's the weekend I'll be in the ATL for Tina! :rolleyes:
I need to check for his dates. I MUST see him. He performs WELL live! :D
