New Albums you Must have

Well here we are in the late end of March.. Took a lil break from bloggin about music, but I Have to update you on all the goodies out there. Everyone knows that the new Kanye album is Vicous!! 808's and Heartbreaks took a few plays for it to grow on me. Once the growing began, I was stuck. See you in my nightmares, Say you will, Robocop, Love Lock down.. well shit that whole album is dope. Kanye is strong in his musical talents, and he is always gettin it in!
Beyonce's I am Sasha Fierce, what can I say? Ive been a slight Beyonce fan from the Destinys Child Days. She can put out club bangers and booty shakers. This album was a taste of something different though. I wast really feelin the Diva thing. Sounded too much like Weeyzs A Millie.. wasn't original to me. Felt like Beyonce was being fake to who she is. This album was more of an electric feel verses her normal love ballads.Some of my favorites are Radio, Broken hearted girl and my top fav which is mostly like Beyonce Halo.. Man I love that Track.. Halo was personally addressed to me from my soul. Not a love song to a man, but a song that sings to my soul! I was goin through tuff times when this track was released, the melody and strings pulled on my soul in a way that corrected all my wrongs and kept my head high to the vision infront of me.
Now on to the Newest Albums.
Ryan Leslie's self titled album Ryan Leslie, is great. Ryan Lesile has been in the game for a while, and like most of the best artists he's been working behind the scenes producing for may artists. Working with Bad Boy, and his production company Next Selection.I love watchin him on you tube. The way he works the instruments over each other producting a perfect melody is like magic infront of your eyes. He has a very in tune ear to music.Keep doin it Ryan..some of the hottest tracks on that album are.. Shouldn't have to wait, Outta the Blue, Diamond Girl and one of my favorites Gibberish.. Not many people give him the play and respect he needs and deserves. I personally love this album.
Ok so now its time for a female. This week Keri Hilson released her new album. To my great surprise, this album is good. I really dont put very much faith into new female artists who have tracks that are ft. with The hottest Rapper out at the time. Most of the time we get one banger on the album and the rest is trash, but Keri Hilson seems to be the diamond in Ruff of trashy music. Her ability is so obviously in song writing, and her soulful voice is clearly a storng hold on her talent as well. She has worked with many many veterans in the music game writing #1 hit after #1 hit. You know her money is right, so putting out an album was more of a passion vs. money driven. I was surprised by the various producers that blessed this album. you Have timberland, Kanye, Neyo just to name a few. One of my favorite tracks is her single out right now with Kanye and Neyo.. Knocks me down. Its nice when you can feel what an artist is trying to do with their music.Keri Hilson has a very bright future, and gold and platinum line he roads she rides down.

Now to my favorite of them all The-Dream
Yes ladies and Gentleman he has dropped yet another bangger! The Radio Killa is the real dilla! I love this guy! I was hooked on his music the moment I heard him sing those famous lines "fuck that Ni$$@" Love Vs. Money is the 2nd chapter in the musical of The Dream story book of hits. Dream apparently has been hurt by someone, and sorry to say I love it, Im livin the same thing. I swear this guy has split personality disorder cause it is obviously played out in his music. How his songs constantly go in different directions by the end of the song. LIke Mr. yeah.. starts out up beat and melodic, then twards the end slows down with finger snaps, piano harmonies and souful singing.. YOU can always come back!! love it love it! He has a story to tell about his broken heart, thought money would make life right we all learn the hard way money cant buy you love, but it can buy you christian lacroix.. Many people haven't jumped on dream yet, which at times can be good, then they dont murder him on the radio.. but then he doesn't get the play and album sales he deserves.
So far this year has been a very exciting year in music for me, I just cant wait to see what the summer holds. I know i will be blastin The Dream and Keri Hilson. I am waiting to see when Alicia Keys will drop a new album.. and i know luda is back in studio.. Until next time. Keep it right and Do it 4 ur soul!
Soul work!
