So she's a knockoff version of Amy Winehouse, I still think Duffy's got something, though her production leaves something to be desired...Then there's the Ting Tings...They're fun...Secondhand Serenade is cheezy and has a lot of slow songs that appeal to me when it's raining out and I'm wistful. Not only is she a femme fatale, but man, she's got range...Leona Lewis has become a singer that I'm not ashamed to say I've been listening to lately. Dr. Nina Simone put out a tribute to Billie Holiday album. It's good. Traffic Entertainment/B Boy Records put out an album called the Masterworks. All the tracks from Sparky D are dope and if you like that old school hiphop sound, then this album is for you, especially for some hard-to-find tracks by Cold Crush Brothers, BDP, Money Earnin Crew, Soul Dimension and Positive Image. Still in the process of reviewing other stuff...In the meantime, going back to the Isley Brothers for some well-sampled slow jams...
Revised 10.24.08 Joan recommended Justin Townes Earle from the CMJ showcase....A really great recommend...Thanks, Joan...North of Division X recommends Little Brother...
