Cop That Disc!!



Solanges new album has finally arrived a full 5 years after her somewhat disapponting debut Solo Star. Now she is all grown up and trying hard to shake off the comparisons to her big sister, evident in album opener 'God Given Name', and she does so convincingly. The album's retro style is a breath of fresh air in a music industry that is becoming increasingly boring and predictable. There are few artists out there who dare to be themselves and bring something different.(Beyonce included) The album is a great mix of modern tracks with an old school flavour that really showcases her songwriting skills shes written tracks for Destiny's Child as well as the highlights 'Upgrade U' and 'Love'from both Beyonce and Kelly Rowland's current albums. Standout cuts here include 'T.O.N.Y' and 'Valentines's Day' if you want to hear real quality music this is well worth purchasing.7/10

Keri Hilson Update



Keri's debut album 'In A Perfect World' has been pushed back.The album was originally due to be released Semptemver 23rd but has now been delayed until october. There has been no official reason why from Mosley Music Group/Zone 4, a joint venture between Timbaland and Polow Da Don, maybe her first single energy wasn't being recieved the way they'd anticpated. Kmt I've been (im)patiently waiting for this album for like a year and a half so i hope this doesn't get pushed back even further coz keri is talented and deserves her time 2 shine.
