New Video:  Goapele – ‘Undertow’


Much to fan delight, soulful songstress Goapele returns with a visual to ‘Under Tow’ – the latest single from her 2012 release ‘Break of Dawn’.  The Bay beauty lifts the ballad’s video from the beaches of the Pacific Ocean – a move that only accents the serenity of the song itself.

New Song:  Jennifer Hudson – ‘Gone, Gone, Gone’

And I Am Telling You’ singer Jennifer Hudson has been telling fans all year how she is hard at work on her yet-titled third album.  Teasing fans with a series of snaps of herself in the studio with her production team, the product of one of those sessions is ‘Gone, Gone, Gone’.

The R&B tune is an unmistakable female empowerment anthem and shows off J. Hud’s chops in ways like never before.  If the cut will make the album, we don’t know yet.  But, we’ll enjoy it until we find out.  Press Play below and hear for yourself (thanks Singersroom):

    J. Hud’s song sounds like a 2001 adult contemporary reject. She’s only 31 years old. Why do they give her 50 year old fashions & music? I just don’t understand.

    Candice Glover can sing, but what is her target market. Hopefully she’ll find her niche in the upcoming market.

    Jhene’s song is HOT! I love her music!

    I honestly didn’t bother listening to the rest, sorry.

    I love Ron Isley’s song and video…i became an instant fan after the Isley Brothers featured on R-Kelly’s DOWN LOW back in the day

  5. Super Cisus May 26, 2013

    None of this s*** will chart anywhere

  6. ratedxxx(tic toc) May 26, 2013

    I f**** with ron isley….everybody else gets a big side eye from me…

    especially jennifer hudson…ive always said this about her..her voice is not made for pop or R&b music..her voice needs to stay at the church choir …

    everybody else boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boooooooooooooooo….

    is candace that chick that won AI? meh

  7. chis May 26, 2013

    Please go back to the lab with that ish Jhud.

  8. Casual May 26, 2013

    The best track is the Robin Thicke track. Jennifer Hudson is giving Betty Wright from the 70’s – old school but not in a good way. The rest are just so-so.

  9. MelyB May 26, 2013

    Luv luv luv the Goapele, JHud, Jhene & Robin Thicke tracks! Thanks for giving Goapele & Jhene some shine – both are so underrated. I can’t wait to hear Candice Glover’s music – I hope that truly talented writers & producers get together to create a spectacular debut for her…and I hope that those who let skin color drive their music purchases, give her a chance and don’t write her off as a “basic r&b chick”.

    • MelyB May 26, 2013

      *forgot to mention Teedra Moses – she is another incredible yet underrated artist. I cannot wait to get her new album.

  10. Sisqo’s new album is coming!! “Last Dragon” 2013 May 26, 2013

    Goapele,Jhene Aiko, Robin Thicke, Dawn Richard songs are like wow.
