Mario's highly anticipated album "Go" is slated to hit stores on November 27th. Here's the latest leaked track.

Keyshia Cole is releasing her latest album "Just Like You" on September 25. Here's a few tracks from the sophomore effort. I must say I was expecting more from Ms. Cole on this one. The tracks sound like castoffs from "The Way I Am." Where is the growth?

Kevin Michael is a new philly based artist. I really love this song and his whole vibe.

Be sure to check him out, or hit him up on Myspace.

I must say that I expected better from Keyshia.

I cannot decide if this performance is hot of its a mess. On one hand she damn near made my ears bleed with the screeching, but on the other hand she did hit all the notes. I'm torn. What do you think?

Good Lord, I hope this is a rumor. I honestly don't think I can take another Beyonce promo spree. Honestly after B'Day (parts 1 & 2) I really think Bey needs to fall back for at least a year. The new project will reportedly be called Worldwide and will be released in January 2008.

Bobby Valentino - "I See You Pointin" (listen/download)

I'm only posting this entertainment purposes. It's just too ridiculous for words. Listen R. Kelly has lost his damn mind.

I know most of us are Beyonced out but Timbaland killed this remix of "Get Me Bodied"

Beyonce ft. Fabolous - "Get Me Bodied" (remix) (listen/download)

I really did know that Kelly could sing like this. I am so mad at DC for keeping her in the background. And by DC I mean Matthew Knowles.

Alicia Keys is set to drop her new album, entitled As I am, on October 23rd. John Mayer and Floetry’s Marsha Ambrosius will make guest appearances. Some of the song titles are: Superwoman, Teenage Love Affair, Sure Looks Good To Me, Like You’ll Never See Me Again, Go Ahead, and the leading single The Thing About Love which she debuted at the Live Earth concert.

For the 8th week in a row, Rihanna holds the No. 1 spot on the UK and Ireland singles chart. Timbaland ft. D.O.E/Keri Hilson has made it's way to number 6.

Seriously Amerie, the hollering is not necessary

I guess I have to commend Chris for trying something new, but the horror film/music video thing has already been done. And as I recall MJ did it much better. If you're going to try to make a "short film" the first thing you need is a budget. This video looks like a low-rent Blade knockoff. Anyway, the dancing was nice.

I've loved this girl ever since I saw her on Star Search way back.

Love this song, but damn that girl need to eat.


Wow! Amy is really rocking the Marge Simpson in this clip.

Beautiful video with a great message.

John Legend is steady trying to convince us he likes women. You ain't got to lie John. You ain't got to lie.

The tracks I've heard from Amerie's latest album are nice, but I have to admit I'm not really a fan of her voice. I think that there are enough non singing wonders out right now, but I'm kind of feeling the groove of a couple of the tracks. It's a real throwback, and I think it's gonna grow on me.

Listen: "Crazy Wonderful"
Listen: "That's What U R"
Listen: "Some Like it Hot"
Listen: "When Loving You Was Easy"

I'm really not feeling this song at all. The "Juicy Fruit" sample is so tired, and sometimes K.C.'s whining and screeching gets on my nerves. I'm waiting for Km to make a comeback though because her verse is kinda hot.

Listen Here: Keyshia Cole - "Let it Go"

When he first came on the scene I thought Chris Brown was going to be another short-lived teeny-bopper sensation, and after I heard that damn "Run It" for the 100th time I couldn't wait for him to fade away. Now that I've heard the entire album and seen him perform and sing live I know that Chris Brown is the future of R&B music. Did ya'll catch that performance at the Grammy's? There is no reason why a minor should be able to do it like that. His latest single, "Wall to Wall", was written by noted hit maker Sean Garrett (Ciara, Beyonce, Usher), and of course Chris killed it.

Listen: Chris Brown - "Wall to Wall"

I must admit that I slept on Robin Thicke for a while, but now I'm really regretting it because his entire album is incredible. But, I really don't think that this single should have been released. There are a few others that are much stronger. Anyways, I'll still watch the video just to see his fine a$$.

Well, R. Kelly is at it again. I am ashamed to say that I really like "I'm a flirt," but this is just ridiculous. Why Robert? Why must you constantly shame yourself and black folks everywhere?

Listen: R. Kelly feat. Young Dro & Young Jeezy - "Blow It Up"
