Drake's "Back To Back" Meek Mill Diss Song

Drake's "Back To Back" Diss song got so much hype that I thought I was going to hear this ETHER type song that was going to really put Meek Mill in his place... I got 6 lines (ehhh maybe 8) of Fire and the regular flow over this average beat... I enjoyed it because I think battles and verbal beefs are good for sales and streams in Hip-hop.  I actually like when people are getting paid to entertain the public and thats exactly what has happened.  The memes and vid-memes have been absolutely hilarious.  But, lets be clear, in this battle Meek has yet to respond and whether you like him or not, he is known to bring the fire. 

The level of greatness pales in comparison to the Jay-z & Nas battle of yesterday but we will wait and see how far it goes...

Jacquees - Ms. Kathy (Make Up)

Jacquees

Jacquees

Do you remember "I'm sorry Ms. Jackson", the very popular lyrics from Andre 3000 of Outkast that explained how a man should make a mends to the creator (mother) of a beautiful Princess that didn't get treated very well in her relationship.  ATL singer Jacquees is no new comer to the music scene but is creating a freshman buzz on the streets like no other.  His latest single "Ms. Kathy" takes a page from the old OutKast book by explaining the 2015 version of young love to the mother of his love interest.  The lyrics may not apply to everyone but for those who can relate, ITS DEAD ON...  Overall, its good Trap-Soul to ride with!

Purple WondaLuv - The Eternal Peace EP

Musiq Soulchild has reinvented himself again and changed his name to Purple WondaLuv.  It's not clear what his inspiration was but I do know that the music has a lot of Jazz and Sade 80's music origins with a touch of a lot of soul.  The vocal vibe says relaxation with a message which guides this entire project.  "The Eternal Peace" EP mentally knocks on the door of finding some level of inner peace with words like "Only Love Can Save Us", while tiptoeing around the world of complications we must endure daily.  The project is completely written and produced by Purple WondaLuv and from a producer's perspective that is a recipe for disaster.  But, after listening closely, he is attempting to reach a the healing portion of the soul that each listener has within and thankfully I got it!  If your looking for the typical Musiq Soulchild, this is not for you.  This is for the audience that is looking to expand their minds and look for inner peace within themselves through Musiq...

Anthony Lewis - "Its Not My Fault" Ft T.I. (Under The Radar)

The industry has been able to produce some quality singers over the past few years.  But, the faces of R&B have been the same in the mainstream media since 2005.  Here in 2015, major labels have been attempting a push of some very talented young R&B artists.  Anthony Lewis is in that pool and making his way to the top of the list.  His latest effort "It's Not My Fault" is a funky fun sampled horn driven song that will generate a few nods of the head and taps of your feet.  T.I. brings in the major flow on the song to give it that slight edge of street credibility.

Joe - Love & Sex Pt. 2 ft. Kelly Rowland

Mr. Joe Thomas is surely in the running for Mr. Consistent.  We have seen Joe grow musically with time but the one thing he has not swayed from is Soul R&B Music.  He focuses on love and relationships like no other.  Album after album he gives his fans exactly what they want and expect.  His latest effort Love & Sex Pt. 2 ft. Kelly Rowland chronicles two critical factors in maintaining a solid relationship in 2015.  You be the judge.

Omarion Ft. Chris Brown & Jhene Aiko - Post To Be (Official Video)

At this stage in music, we are seeing many different kinds of collaborations.  Some that are shocking and some that just makes sense.  Omarion, Jhene Aiko & Chris Brown just makes sense to me.  Three great artists having on a feel good track.  "Post To Be" is fun, energetic and danceable on any level or dance floor.  The recent release of the official video shows how having fun with great artists can come across almost effortless.  We look forward to future collaborations by these artists and wish them continued success with their solo careers.
