Hot Music Pics:
Erykah Badu - New Amerykah Part II: Return of The Ankh
What a great compilation of good music. Sure, she came in with a great marketing ploy, the Window Seat" video and got people to talking, looking and thinking, but New Amerykah II is a great follow-up to her critically acclaimed Part I. She went back to her R&B roots on this gem in a way that only Erykah can with several standouts on this album. I'm sure if you haven't picked it up and you do, you won't be disappointed! I actually love and like every song on the CD with my favorites being "Window Seat," "You Can't Turn Me Away (Get Munny)" to "Gone, Don't Be Long " and the simply fabulous "Out of My Mind, Just In Time"....she's touring and her career has been re-ignited and if there's any artist worthy of such promotion it's Erykah Badu, one of our most beloved songtresses and an artist who brings substance to her music. Don't miss her in concert if you possibly can because Erykah is always ultra entertaining!
Monica - Still Standing
Love Monica and so glad she's back with an exciting new project and a runaway hit with "Everything To Me"...she's back in rare form and reminding us just how delicious R&B can be! With only one single released thus far, Monica's Still Standing is nearly gold and she's still within the top ten Billboard R&B chart. So, show Monica some love and BUY Still Standing and support an artist so many have grown up with and simply have enjoyed her music for a long time!
Ledisi - Turn Me Loose
With her current single blowing through the airwaves "Higher Than This" from her album Turn Me Loose, this is one of my favorite hot music pics! Ledisi's a national treasure, a singer's singer for sure! I love this CD for many reasons, her music makes her seem unreal due to her unbridled passion and raw emotion that she exudes through her music with "Goin' Thru Changes," you'll fall in love with her if you haven't already. This commanding music star has been giving her fans lovely music and phenomenal vocals for more than a minute! She's one of the fortunate ones to escape the underground status that so many ultra talented artists find themselves to have created a name and niche for herself! I took personal pride in watching her career expand and reach out to stardom level from her independent work, SoulSinger days. Even our First Lady is bumpin' Ledisi on her ipod. This is her second studio recording with Verve and she surely didn't disappoint. So check Ledisi out and definitely go see her live, it's epic!
