Amel Larrieux has a CD coming out on May 22nd called Lovely Standards -- she covers standards in music history.

^^^Really? I didn't hear anything about it. I'll have to put that on my "must have" list.

:eek:

Yay! Thanks for the info, CT4.

It's not on BlissLife.com but I am on her mailing list and got the e-mail last Monday.

You're welcome! :D

Some folks to check out if you haven't yet:

Anthony David
Eric Roberson (no, for real, you HAVE to check him out.)
Lizz Fields
V

Anthony David is the isht!! He has a song titled "Words," which features India.Arie. It is H-O-T!! I heard the song on "Noah's Arc" and was hooked!! Soror SoulfulRemix put me onto Eric Roberson. He's cool too. I LOVE soul/neo-soul music! :D

I must agreee with the above posting. Anthony David 's album was a classic.

I just wanted to add.
-----------------------------
*Gym Class Heroes
*Clyde Carson
*Big Black Lincoln (their a Canadian based R&B/soul group).
*Corinne Bailey Rae
*Javier
*Leela James (most slept on arist in the soul game of 2005.Honestly you could play this CD all the way through without skipping).
*Mario Vazquez

I didnt know people knew about Anthony David!! I love him. He needs to come to NY soon. Also, I found a new artist while perusing myspace. His name is Napoleon and I am IN LOVE!!!! :D His myspace is: http://www.myspace.com/napmusic82.

And, Soror, I didn't know I put you on to Eric Roberson! Yay!!! :D

Some other acts I'm diggin' right now:

J*Davey
Nouveau Riche
Adrian Hood (bought that "Daddy's Little Girls" SDTK for his song)
Lily Allen

WOO HOO!! I absolutely love her.

Oh, and I'm glad other people (besides myself) are talking about Anthony David. He used to help India.Arie with a lot of her music and co-wrote a few tracks on her first CD.

I've been listening to a lot of Bossa Nova lately. Bebel Gilberto is the BEST! She reminds me a lot of Sade.

I think it was one of the songs that you sent me a while back. If you see me on AOL, don't hesitate to holla at me and put me onto some new stuff. I am always looking for new music! :D

I am always looking for new music too. Myspace has become my little new music finder portal, sad but true. I don't think artists even waste their time and money making ".com" sites when they can have the same effect and reach more people on myspace.

Some artists that I am enjoying:
-Amy Winehouse
-Musiq Soulchild of course
-Sy Smith
-Regina Spektor
-Robin Thicke
-Jhene
-Lloyd
-as always Raheem DeVaughn even though he's an older artist

I too LOVVVVE Amel Larrieux!! I bought her last album and I can listen to it straight through without skipping any of the tracks... you can't say that these days about most artists.

Thanks to y'alls recommendations I added some Amy Winehouse, Anthony David and Eric Roberson to my Imeem playlist!:cool:

I finaaaaaaally purchased Musiq's cd and I'm loving every bit of it! It's so good to hear real music.

I'm loving Amy Winehouse now. Imma go purchase her CD this week. :D
