Does Beyonce look 25? Yeah!
 

I've heard those same sentiments. Many have said that B.Kno is looking better than J.Lo. :confused:

I heard some of MJB's new song today. I need to hear it again. I'll come back with my comments later.

I heard Monica's remix with Bussa Bus (Busta) today as well. Monica is doing MORE rapping. I like this one, it really is a REMIX. :D I can't wait for the CD.

I really like Beyonce's new songs, although I really didn't want to. That video is kinda bad. She is so PRETTY and she is looking all kinds of hooched out. The high-fashion outfit isn't too bad, or the casual one, but that jeans short w/ red pumps thing???? Oowee that's terrible. The girl's body looks AMAZING, whaterver work she did has paid off without her losing her booty, but she is somehow trying to outhooch Ms Lopez without having her innate style (think about it- regardless of how nekkid she is or isn't, J Lo RARELY misses with her outfits- they make her look beautiful).

I have a dumb question, who is MJB? Don't get mad yall:) !

*whispering to grits, MJB is Mary J Blige*
lol

I like Beyonce's new song and will be getting her album on the 24th. I also like Mya's new song. :)

Yea, I heard it on VH1.com and I kinda like it. It has a new twist to it. It seems like Regga is going to be the thing for this summer.

What's the name of Mary's new song?? I LOVE me some Mary. Can't wait for her album to drop.

Monica's CD comes out on Tuesday and I will be copping it. It's on sale at Best buy for $9.99 and on sale at Target for $9.98

Did anyone realize that this summer is the Return of the R&B Diva? Think about it. . .

Monica-June 17th

Beyonce-June 24th

Ashanti :rolleyes: -July 1st

PLUS, Mary, Mya, etc.


ETA: MARY'S NEW CD, LOVE & LIFE, DROPS AUGUST 26th!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

whispering to nikki1920.... thanks girl!!;)

I can get with those prices. I loooooved and still bop to CD#1. I am digging the current single.

So far I've only heard the remix featuring Mia X and I liked it a lot.

:confused: at the name of Mary's new single. :o I didn't hear it today. Whenever I get the name, you know I'll post it (if someone doesn't beat me to it. :p ).

LOL at not knowing who MJB was. Go back and listen to her song on the Mary CD..."Deep Inside". (Was that the name of it? :confused: )

hey I knew, I was just checking(lol);) !

I probably have heard the new Mary song. I heard a few new songs she has done. One with 50 and one with Method Man.

Yes, 2D the name of the song is "Deep Inside". She says it at the end over the chorus.

I've heard MJB's song twice, and I'm not feelin' it yet. I do like Meth's part, though. I'll still buy the CD because the unreleased songs are always the best ones. I do like the Hot Sex on a Platter beat, but right now I don't feel like the lyrics and tone flow with the beat. It's aight. Maybe it'll grow on me.

so you know what to look for
 

Re: so you know what to look for
 

I see she's FINALLY showing off her tats.

Re: Re: so you know what to look for
 

And everything else!

AOL has a first listen of the song with Method Man. If it's the same song you've heard 2D the name of the song is "Love @ 1st Sight".

LMAO. You know we need to hear a REMIX! :D :cool:

Gina, that's it. Love @ first sight. :D I still haven't heard it since Saturday. :o

As soon as I get into Houston tomorrow, I'm stopping at the nearest Best Buy to get Monica.

I'll be buying mine on my lunch break!! I'm kind of mad though because it seems like Best Buy and Target ALWAYS have the new CDs for cheap ($9.99). Media Play, at least the one here, NEVER has cheap CDs. I have the rewards card from Media Play, but all I use it on is books or misc. items. I think it's a conspiracy, LOL.

Yeah, I checked it on AOL last night. I am not really feeling it either. Of course I will buy the CD cause it is Mary.

I can't wait for Beyonce's CD.

I think I will have to DL some of Monica's tracks before I buy. AKA2D and Gina hopefully y'all can give us an album review.

Y'all will have to tell me how good Monica's cd is because I don't want to buy a wack cd. LET ME KNOW!

I hope MJB steps up to the plate with the cd because her last album was GARBAGE!

I can't wait to hear this new 112 cd. I'm a big fan of theirs.

When is Carl Thomas coming back out with something?? I miss him... his first album is still on POINT!

It's about time for D'Angelo to come with something else?

Is it just me, or was KeKe Wyatt the bomb too? I need another cd from her too.

Don't y'all forget to keep a sista posted on Monica's album!:D

Are my music tastes changing?
 

I don't really like the new Monica song. But I haven't heard the remixes, either. That's one I won't be buying. I haven't bought a CD in at least a month or more. I want Kindred and Goapele. I still don't have The Roots. Right now, I need to stock up on old CD's. Like I want DasEFX (the one with the green cover).

Yes, I'm buying Mary's just cause.

I can't wait for Beyonce's either, even though I'm still not feeling her, just her music.

I'll let y'all know about Monica. I figure if I don't like it, I can sell it on eBay. ;)

Have you all seen the video for Hidden Beach II: Bouncing Back? I love that beat with the jazz included...it's TIGHT! I also love the new Mike Phillips song featuring J.R. called "Wonderful & Special." I also love that song by Kindred....they're with Hidden Beach too, I believe. That's what I call real music!

Beyonce and Luther
 

Has anyone else heard the duet that Beyonce and Luther do on his new album? I was pleasantly surprised. It sounds nice. They sound good together to me. I'm becoming more impressed with her as each day goes by.

Re: Beyonce and Luther
 

I haven't heard it but it's going to be on her album, which comes out next Tuesday.

BTW, the Monica CD is alright. I was listening to it on the way home. It has a lot of slower songs on it. I think it will grow on me. I like the bonus CD a lot too, which has a song on it with Mia X.

Me too. :mad: After I read your post Sunday, I went to MediaPlay.com and dayum if it did not say $12.99. I have a rewards card as well. I usually sometimes luck out every now and again with a music purchase. Next weekend is TRIPLE REPLAY DAYS. :D as well as the weekend that Soul Food on DVD gets released.


**sorry about hijack** :)

Re: Re: Beyonce and Luther
 

I kind of feel that Monica owes me $9.99. :mad: That CD does nothing for me. OK, she can give me like $6.99 back because I kinda like the song with Tyrese and the track right after that one. The "So Gone" remix w/Busta is cool too. She should have some HARD with this CD. Everything just sounds like "Another Missy Elliot EXCLUSIVE....." :rolleyes:

I won a copy of Beyonce's CD and I can't wait until I get it! She has me hooked with that "Dangerously in Love."

Re: Re: Beyonce and Luther
 

It's on Luther's CD too. He has a couple of songs that I like, but I'm really surprised that this album is #1 on the charts right now.

Re: Re: Re: Beyonce and Luther
 

I'm not. Many people probably thought that Luther was not going to survive the stroke. The same thing happened with Aaliyah's CD after she passed. :( R.I.P.

I've only listened to Monica's first disc. I didn't really realize there was another disc until this afternoon. :o I have the remix on repeat. I'm kind of disappointed, but since I did get 2 discs for $9.99, I'm not too hurt.

I still prefer the Miss Thang CD. :D

Ideal, when you get back...I bought The Roots after you all left. The chit is DA BOMB! There is a DVD that was included I still haven't watched. :o

After listening to Monica's CD's (regular and bonus), I have decided that my favorite song on there is "Knock, Knock". Missy and Kanye West both did an EXCELLENT job with production and Monica killed the vocals!! I wish she would release this as her next single.

ETA: I have now heard two more songs off of Beyonce's CD. I heard Baby Boy with Sean Paul last night at the club, it was HOT!! I also have another song on a mixtape. Based on these two songs, plus "Crazy in Love" I will definitely have to buy her CD.

MUSICAL FYI
 

"HIDDEN BEACH SET FOR JULY 1 RELEASE

“HIDDEN HITS” COMPILATION FEATURES RISING STARS
FROM ACROSS THE NATION…& the WORLD
ARTISTS TO POINT-UP LOCAL AREA MARKETING

Santa Monica, CA – On July 1, Hidden Beach Recordings will unveil the next wave of emerging new stars with the hotly anticipated release of “Hidden Hits,” the label’s breakthrough compilation CD of unheralded and unsigned artists. Officially titled Hidden Beach Recordings Presents: Hidden Hits Vol. 1, the 17-track set of all original material presents a broad mix of musical genres and artistic styles, ranging from Hip Hop to soul to a cool international vibe, among others.

The CD showcases unknown, yet highly talented artists hailing from such diverse areas as Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Dallas, Columbus, OH and even Paris, France. And, most importantly, the “Hidden Hits” tracks satisfy the project’s two main criteria – they meet Hidden Beach’s high standards for quality and are performed by artists not currently signed to a major recording deal.


On the site you can sample some of the songs. They took songs like Biggies 1 more chance and added a jazz singer and jazzy beat and I will have to admit it was nice. Click on the link and check it out.

Today I went to Best Buy where I was told by a Zeta SF that KEM and Kindred were available for $9.99.

I bought Kem -- $9.99 (I am on track #2 and digging it so far, nice jazzy mix and instrumentation.)

Monica -- sold out @ BB; $13.99 @ Target; $12.99 @ CC. I will hit up another BB tomorrow

Oh and Kindred was marked as $14.99 at BB. I did not check for it at Circuit City though.

Oh and I am digging the Bow Wow song. I finally heard Mary's song -- it has to grow on me.

Oh and 2D, Miss Thang is still my joint too. I never bought CD #2 because what I heard did not impress me.

ETA: KEM's CD has a couple of songs that remind me of Al Jarreau.

I can't believe that nobody liked Monica's second disc. That was the bomb to me! I loved it. I don't know what it was, but that is one of my favorite CDs.

I'll have to check out Kem and I like the song by Kindred that comes on BET's Midnight Love.

Has anyone heard that song by a girl named "Lumidee"? I kind of like it. Her disc comes out Tuesday (as well as Beyonce's) and they're on sale for $9.99. I may get it.

I'm really feeling...
 

Okay, I may be repeating some songs that I mentioned previously, but that just means that they've grown on me.

Fabolous w/Tamia/Ashanti (whoever it is)- So into you/Can't let you go
Lil' Mo- Forever
Jahiem- Put that woman first (I guess that's the name of it)
R.Kelly & Mr. Big - What would you do? (and I hate Mr. Isley/Mr. Big...whatever)
Monica- So gone
50 cent/Em/Busta- Hail Mary
Aaliyah's new release...can't think of the name right now.
Beyonce' :rolleyes: & Jay- Crazy Love
(I really, REALLY don't like her, but I am so feeling her music)


I am patiently waiting to get Tamia's new CD.

I know I'm not supposed to be posting, but I came here to post about that song. That is my JAM!!! Ok, that's all. Off to take a little nap! :)

Re: I'm really feeling...
 

It's Tamia. I heard the first release and it was originally done with Ashanti. The feedback wasn't great (as we all should know :rolleyes: ), so he snatched her from the song and let Tamia sing her own hook. No one can redo Tamia!

If I hear these songs one more time, I can't be held responsible for my actions! :mad:



It's titled "Come Over." It is the jam!

I wish that I could get an advance copy! I'm still rocking the first and second disks!

Re: Re: I'm really feeling...
 

This song was originally done by Changing Faces. I loved it when they did it, and I love Aaliyah's version as well.
