Weekly Throwback

Ne-yo / Miguel- Let's Just Be

This isn't exactly a review but "Let's Just Be" is a song by Ne-yo circulating around the net that is rumoured to be off his next album. As much as I love Ne-Yo's music I just can't listen to it the same way anymore, the image of him without a hat (look above) has been permanently imprinted in my brain. Lol but na, that doesn't take away from his musical talent. Apparently he's given the song to another artist by the name of Miguel. The song is SO sweet, it's about a type of guy with a mentality that every girl would want. Both versions are good, so who knows whether it'll actually make it on Ne-yo's next album..

Here's Miguel's version. This guys beyond sexy. Check out some of his other songs.

Mariah Carey - E=MC2

The moment we've all been waiting for is finally here. Despite being a fan since nursery days (thanks to my parents..) I'm a little disappointed. Upon initial listening the album is alright though.

The stand-out tracks for me are "I'll Be Lovin You Long Time" it's a mid-tempo feel good track that makes you envisage sunny days and bright clouds lol. I like how MC provides her own background singing and it kind of overlaps (can't explain, listen for yourself), I'm also liking "Love Story", "O.O.C" and "4real4real" with it's catchy lyrics.
Oh and "Cruise Control" stands out to me, for the wrong reasons though.. what is up with Mimi putting on a Jamaican accent, I know she has a bit of black in her but C'MON now! LOL.

I'm not liking "I Stay In Love", halfway through it Mariah must've run out of lyrics or somethin because she fills in the gap with an uncreative "na nan na na"- I'm not no hater.. but channelling Britney right now GIMME GIMME MORE! To me it seems like a generic pop-love song. I feel mean for saying this but the song "Bye Bye" is just so boring, the idea behind it (the loss of loved ones either by death, parting ways etc) is sweet but it doesn't do much else for me.

So my overrall comment for this is the albums ok. Maybe it'll take a few more listens for me to warm up to it, but I dunno something seems bland about the album, like I said it's ok, but much more is expected from Mariah.

B to call it a day?

According to the NY Daily News Beyonce's third album may be her last. The follow up to 2006's B'day is scheduled to drop later this year or early 2009. A track rumoured to be on it has already leaked check out 'beautiful nightmare'. Anyway a source close to the singer has said that once she is done with music she will concentrate on being a music scout for her hubby Jay-z 's (aka Jigga, Hova, and Mr.Potato Head lol) new music label The Carter Music Group.
I don't believe this for a second everyone knows that Beyonce/Sasha is INCAPABLE of sitting down lol

Robot Romance

Picture this. A world where life-like robots and humans live life in harmony- and even have relations. The sexual sort. NOW, don't think I'm crazy because apparantly this is all schedueled for 2050. Yeah that's right, an iRobot world coming in the future.

I actually read this foolishness in the Metro (newspaper on the bus for cheap students.. lol).
One woman in reply to this went as far as saying :

"They will be uninhibited, free of STDs and probably much better in bed than most men"

They're even in the process of creating robots with nerve senses in their "nipples" LOL. That's too funny. I don't wanna live to see a world like that! It's just weird!! I think I'll be around 60 then so I probably won't understand what's goin on anyhows!

Leona Lewis

Our very own UK star (born in london) is starting to break the US by entering in the billboard charts at no.1, which is a break through for a UK artist since 1987 (Kim Wilde). Since winning the X-Factor in 2006 leona is now showing us what she can do with a gift like singing and where it can take her and she deifnitelty is. Miss Lewis has now appeared on a numerous amount of shows within the US (Oprah Winfrey show, Ellen Degeneres show, Jimmy kimmel and more...), and she is now starting to get a name for herself as a "really good singer" and not being compared to Mariah Carey (mrs carey cannot be compared with anyone, her singing is too perfect). Oprah said to her "A star has been born", which is a true statement, we all have to commend this girl for going this distance with the talent that she has been given (raisin a glass to her), lol, here's a clip of Leona on the Ellen Degeneres Show. By da way her album is really good, go buy it, it is worth the money tracks like "Homeless/Take a bow" and "Footprints in the sand, i would definitely give it a 4star rating.
