It has been confirmed that singer Kelis has been released her record label Jive. The ‘Milkshake’ singer saw the most success with her 2003 album ‘Tasty’, however her most recent effort, 2006’s ‘Kelis Was Here’, didn’t fare too well on the charts. “She’s a different kind of artist — very image and style-driven. It’s either something you get or you don’t” said her manager Jeff Rabhan. He went on to confirm that she is currently shopping around for a new ‘non-traditional’ deal. {Source}
With Mario set to drop his third studio LP ‘Go!’ on November 27th, an exclusive new track titled ‘If’ has surfaced. Upon first listen, some of you will recognize the lyrics from Beyonce’s rendition of the song (from the ‘B’Day Deluxe), as well as the beat – which samples Trey Songz current single ‘Can’t Help But Wait’. Though the track will not be featured on the album, it’s still definitely worth a listen. Be on the lookout for a potential Mario feature in the coming weeks.
Kelly Rowland touched down in London yesterday for a series of PA’s across the city. She first performed a set at EA’s ‘Be The One – X League’ event last night in Trafalgar Square.
Check out this new promotional pic for R&B collective Cherish. The sisters are currently prepping the release of their sophomore effort ‘The Truth’ – which is set to drop March 28th 2008. I’m guessing this pic is indicative of the look they’re going for this time around; I’m liking it.The video for Sean Paul’s new single ‘Watch Dem Roll’ surfaced earlier this week. I can’t say I’m a fan of the song – particularly as a single. Considering Sean usually delivers with his first singles, the song is kinda so-so, as is the Rich Newey directed video.
What do you think of the video?
R&B star Ashanti gave a rendition of ‘God Bless America’ at opening game at the MLB World Series in Boston this past Wednesday (October 25th). Till this day, I never understand why people argue that ‘Ashanti can’t sing’; she nailed this performance. Thinking about it, I guess it’s because her true vocal ability doesn’t always transcend onto her records. Here’s hoping she comes with ‘it’ on her new CD ‘The Declaration’ (due February 2008).

Def Jam’s Rihanna is currently touring in support of her ‘Good Girl Gone Bad’ album. On September 24th, the Bajan star hit Montreal’s Bell Center in Canada for a show and MSN Music was there to tape the event. By clicking the link at the bottom of this post, you can watch the entire concert – which was made available online yesterday .About the concert, I thought she did ‘ok’. Call me a hater or whatever, but it lacked the energy of a show I would spend my money on. Still, I’m sure there are those who are feeling what she has to offer…
Singing sensation Leona Lewis is hitting the promotional trail hard this week to support the release of her new single ‘Bleeding Love’. She stopped by daytime talk show ‘Loose Women’ earlier on today to perform the track. Though not initially a fan of the song, I’m liking it more and more each time performs it – vocally she was overly on-point. A tidbit: though, I don’t usually care for such things, her outfit had to be a joke, right?
In other news, ‘Bleeding Love’ is set to become the fastest-selling UK single this year, after going on-sale this Monday. The track is guaranteed the #1 spot come Sunday when the official numbers are announced.
What do you think of the performance?
What’s more, the highly-stylized nature of the pics kinda clash with the album’s title. Anyway, ‘Still Da Baddest’ drops February 12th 2008. The CD’s first single ‘Single Again’ can be heard by clicking here..jpg)
