NEW ISH FROM LYKKE LI - TONIGHT

The good folks at stereogum, have premiered the video for Lykke Li’s bonus track from her 2008 debut Youth Novels. This video is unique, becuase unlike her previous efforts, which have been elaborate odes to retro style and film making, this one solely features her singing in front of a black background. In the end, the result is a video that forces the audience to listen to what she is saying. View the video after the jump.

NEW JAY Z JOINT - WHEN THE MONEY GOES


Money Goes” is a new track set to be featured Jay-Z’s upcoming album The Blueprint 3. By the sounds of all the material he’s been putting out, it wouldn’t be far fetched to say that this album might be the comeback that Jay fans have been waiting for. Granted, his American Gangster album did receive plenty of praise and acclaim. Nevertheless, the world has been waiting on Jay to come back “like Jordan wearing the four-five”, since his promise to retire after the black album. Unfortunately, this track is only a radio rip, an therefore not the best quality, but I assure you once the official version leaks we will have it ready for you.

Keyshia Cole:A Different Me album Review


Keyshia Cole's third album makes the attempt to try some different styles and show a 'different' side of the singer. For me, she's best on songs that play into her strengths and what we've come to expect from her than those tracks that attempt to be and sound different from typical Keyshia Cole. "Trust Me" and "This is Us" stand out because they feature her vocals paired with a performance tinged with emotion. "A Different Me" is more upbeat than Cole's previous releases, which is a change, but something feels off or lacking on this release. The production of some songs is questionable - her vocals are marred by beats that sound dated and like throwbacks, while her attempts to be different makes her lose the individuality and uniqueness that made her stand out from other R&B artists.

There were some songs that stood out, even if they sounded a bit generic and beneath her usual performance and vocal abilities. "Make Me Over" is one of the best tracks, an upbeat song with something of a gospel-sound. "Please Don't Stop" is quick and fast paced, "Erotic" is just as it sounds - a slower, more sensual song that definitely is a more open and expressive song than you'd expect from her. As for the other songs, they were just okay for me. The release sounded a bit rushed and had less emotion than previous releases. It was a bit of a let down to hear a great singer like Keyshia Cole performing songs that didn't stretch her vocal abilities any and sounded like songs that any up and coming artist could perform. "A Different Me" is average at best, a bit rushed, the production is weaker than the previous releases.
