Sometimes love just doesn’t work out so you gotta “Walk On” . Check out the new video from one of our favorites, Mint Condition. The video is directed by G. Visuals and stars Carl Payne of Martin fame, and Jessica Castro.
Now you know when a song is titled “4 AM”, something is going on… and it ain’t a prayer meeting, LOL! Check out this new song from Melanie Fiona, “4 AM”.
I recently got to chat with Ginuwine about his upcoming album Elgin slated to hit stores February 15, 2011. He had some good insight on the record business today as well as how he feels about the state of R&B music today. Ginuwine is back and is ready to give his fans what they have grown to expect from him in which he surely won’t disappoint.
What can we expect from the new album?
This new cd is pretty much the same. I really don’t like to change it up a lot. I’m staying consistent with my female fan base and the ballads. It’s pretty much straight ballads, that’s been my strength. I have one song that’s called “Batteries” that’s probably going to be a club hit. There’s some production on there by St. Nick and Bryan Michael Cox along with myself. St. Nick is the one that did the new single “What Could Have Been” and there is a song on there by Diane Warren called “Break”. It’s the number 7 cd and we’re just looking forward to awesome things that are about to happen. A lot of people love real R&B and real music so I’m happy to give it to them.
What are some of your favorite songs that you recorded for this album?
My favorite is called “Drink of Choice” then you have “Heaven” and “Break”. Going into a cd I don’t do any songs unless I truly like them. You do like some songs better than others but for the most part I like all of them but those are my favorite. My top one is “Drink of Choice” by Bryan Michael Cox. (more…)

Art is always out in front of commerce and as such music was a global phenomenon eons before the globalization of commerce. I firmly believe that the great folks over at We Plug GOOD Music must have given a lot of consideration to what the title of this great compilation would be because all one has to do is to go anywhere online to see that collaborations have moved from the neighborhood to different hemispheres.
Great new track from The Family Stand from their upcoming fifth studio album which drops September 7th as a digital only release via Bandcamp.
The term “Grown Folks Music” and “Grown and Sexy” has been so overused that the meaning becomes lost. I would like to present to you my definition of Grown Folks Music with the What is Grown Folks Music Mixtape Vol. 1. Look for others in this series.
