Album Review: Alicia Keys "The Element of Freedom"
Today at 12:01am I went to iTunes and purchased the new Alicia Keys album. I have enjoyed her previous three albums but I was unsure about this one because the first two singles have not been what I expected. Lucky for Alicia Keys I gave her another chance and I just finished listening to the album and I completely understand her genius. Every song is carefully crafted and perfectly executed in order to get her point across. To some the album can be heard as a mid-tempo vibe, but I felt it as something deeper, and I loved it. Alicia Keys rarely has special guests on her albums but this one had two very large names: Beyonce and Drake and I was highly skeptical about these songs, but they were both amazing in their own right. Ultimately, this album is not about the glitz and the glamour that some artists exhibit, instead Alicia Keys asks you to ask for patience, look for love, and find hapiness. My favorite tracks on the album is her duet with Drake "Unthinkable" and "Love Is My Disease". Below I made you quick snippets of the deluxe version of the album. Enjoy!

Kanye West: Artist of the Decade & Album of the Decade
I will forever be a Kanye West fan and just because he told Taylor Swift the truth (however the timing disrespectful and should of been left to a rant after the show or via twitter), he has lost the respect of many (including his recent snub at the grammy's). Fortunately, there are some people out there who still have faith in Yeezy! Rolling Stone Magazine named Kanye West one of the most influential people of this decade! Billboard Magazine named Taylor West and Kanye West the top male and female acts of 2009. Subsequently, Entertainment Weekly just said that Kanye West's album "The College Dropout" is the best one this century. All I have to say to that is that I totally agree! If it wasn't for innovative artist for Kanye West, John Legend, Lauryn Hill, Jay-Z, Outkast, Beyonce, Miranda Lambert and Timbaland who continue to push the envelope we would all be stuck in pop hell with artists like Taylor Swift or Heidi Montag. Mr. West, thank you for always keeping it real.

Beyoncé "Sweet Dream" Video Teaser
Here is a sneak peak of Beyonce’s new video Sweet Dreams. It just surfaced along with her commentary on the song. “It’s very rare to find an up-tempo song that means something,” she notes, “that’s not just about going to a club or partying or being a sexy girl.” Given that a lot of Bey’s up-tempo songs do follow a sort of “I am woman, watch me dance” formula, Sweet Dreams seems like an unlikely choice for her next single.
The video promises to be “flashy” and the leaked visuals definitely confirm that. The song itself is about a relationship, a good one at that, presumably her marriage to Jay-Z. “This relationship is just so wonderful that it kind of scares me, its kind of too good to be true,” she says before adding, “I can say that I am a fulfilled happy woman.” Check it out:

I'm Back!
So it has been a long time since my last post but I am back and I am going to take a bit of a twist with this site. I am going to be finding random stuff to post here like artists you need to know about, pictures that are just random and award show information. Enjoy!
So the BET Awards were great at times but boring at other times...all I can say is thank goodness for Ne-Yo, Beyonce and Keri Hilson for having amazing performances...everyone else was just boring. I still don't get the hype about Drake. Chaka Khan looked crazy. Le Toya Luckett did everything in her power to outshine Beyonce but it didn't work. Janet Jackson was an unexpected surprise. Jay-Z was the highlight for me. Death to Auto-Tune please!
Here is the video premiere for Jay-Z's new video D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune) produced by Kanye West.

A New Beginning
So this is going to be a very personal post. Life is changing all around me very quickly, sometimes for the worst and sometimes for the better but I am very happy that the better is winning right now. Yesterday I decided that a certain job I had been doing for almost 5 years was not for me and I am going to end that at the end of May. I was unsure if that was something I should of done and after deciding to end that job I questioned my decision. Did I act out of anger? What the hell did I just do? Well after talking to some really amazing friends (you know who you are!) I am so good. Last night I decided to start new and I did this by tearing down over 300 pictures off my ceiling so that helped me get some anger out!
Life is full of surprises and as of yesterday it was very bland. I am ready to shake things up again and do things like I had never done before...its time to live like I was dying. There is this song by Rascal Flatts titled "Love Who You Love" that is making my life a little easier.

New Artist: Tina Parol
Think of Tina Parol as the next Katy Perry or Nelly Furtado...but with a really great voice. She has premiered her debut single titled "Who's Got Your Money Now?" and it is quite catchy. Tina has written songs for artist like Britney Spears and Mandy Moore so you know she is more than just a singer. Enjoy. Also, check out this cover she did of Britney's song "Womanizer".
