Keri Hilson begon achter de schermen. Als songwriter voor diverse grote artiesten als Britney Spears, Usher en Pussycat Dolls was ze verantwoordelijk voor de grote hits. Het was echter altijd haar droom om zelf in de spotlight te staan. “Het was niet frustrerend om voor andere artiesten nummers te schrijven,” vertelt Hilson.

The old and the new were on display at Manhattan’s Porsche Design Space when 90s R&B stalwarts Boyz II Men held an intimate listening party and live performance Monday (Sept. 19) to preview their new album “Twenty,” due on Oct. 25 (with physical copies available exclusively at Walmart). “Twenty” was played in its entirety before a sharp-dressed crowd of print, social, and entertainment press over wine and hors d’oeuvres, prepared by celebrity chef Angelo Sosa. Just moments after their sudden arrival, the trio treated its guests to a near- a cappella performance (save for a few piano brushes) of new single “More than You’ll Ever Know” and old standbys like “I’ll Make love To You” and “On Bended Knee,” which will be reworked on the album’s second disc. “There was no schedule, no set list, and honestly, no rehearsal” explained manager Joe Mulvihill. “Just a piano and mics… the evening just unfolded naturally.” The group’s management, along with its public relations team, The Chamber Group (reps Sherlen Archibald and Vanessa Wheeler were on hand), appeared genuinely enthused over Boyz II Men’s rejuvenation. Recent successes include the launch of their charity, The Boyz II Men House, the release of their mobile ap, and their own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

every so often, I hear a song that is so good I want to die.

Generally that feeling is for one or both of the following reasons: A. It’s a song that I wish I would’ve or could’ve been able to write myself, or B. It’s a song that holds qualities that somehow appeal to every part of me as a music fan.

Ich will das Unmgliche mglich machen am besten noch vor dem Frhstck! sagt Aura Dione. Auras Stimme und ihre Musik gleichen einer verbotenen Frucht : hat man erst einmal davon gekostet, kommt man nicht mehr davon los. Aura ist ein musikalisches Ausnahme-Talent mit dnischen, spanischen, franzsischen und farischen Wurzeln. Die offensichtliche Faszination, die die junge Sngerin und Songwriterin auf ihre Umwelt ausbt, ist aber auf viel mehr als nur ihre exotische Herkunft zurckzufhren. Auf Ihrem neuen Album “Before the Dinosaurs” spielt sie mit den Sinnen, fesselt als groartige Geschichtenerzhlerin und malt atemberaubende Bilder mit ihrer Stimme und ihren Melodien.

Have you gotten to check out Timbaland’s hot new music video yet? It is for his new single, “Pass at Me” featuring French DJ, David Guetta and Pitbull. It was first released on September 13th, and is the first single from Timbaland’s forthcoming album Timbaland Presents Shock Value III. Like the two albums before it in the series, Shock Value III showcases Timbaland’s ability to be paired up with a collection of different artits from various genres, and create something special with them, in a way that only he can. throughout the years Timbaland has been able to create a  sound with a distinctive use of vocals, electronic tones, and drum patterns tied together in a way that progressively fuses melody together with rhythm. These songs usually then push the boundries of Pop song structure. As he has grown as a producer and musician, he has used the “Timbaland sound” to help redefine the sound of various artists. in many ways Tim’s work with an artist can be considered a milestone in their career, in which their sound is forever influenced by the growth they experienced while working with him. This is particularly notable when listening to the work of artists like Aaliyah, Justin Timberlake, Chris Cornell and Nelly Furtado.

1317475530 25 To school in style

The opportunity yesterday for free back-to-school haircuts, washes, and curls brought nearly 200 children – and their budding senses of style – into a popular 22-year-old barber shop that has long been a de facto community center in Boston’s black community. the second annual “cut and curl’’ is the brainchild of Jamie Mitchell, a father of five and owner of Mattapan’s Finest Barbers. Lines spilled onto the sidewalk for the event, held at the barber shop’s location across from Grove Hall’s mecca shopping center.

I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. on some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio.”
