Joe – ain’t nothing like me

I’ve been waiting for this album for a very long time; Joe is one of my favorite artists. He is one of the few artists that really know how to produce an R&B album, his lyrics are always inspiring and romantic, with his style and his choice of beats and rhythm are always amazing. Now this album contains a lot of pretty amazing R&B songs, I was a bit disappointed with the latest R&B albums in the market, but with this marvelous album my passion for R&B songs are back popping :D.

What I like in an album is to not be able to use the fast fwd button or even the next button, and this album actually made me do that(i'm not able to fast FWD the songs).

I’d rate this album 5/5, for the amazing performance by Joe.

Joe Love Is Just a Game Lyrics
Love is just a game
Oooh ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah (telling you) x4

Baby…
You cant keep doing this shit…
Oh oh, love is just a game…
Oh, listen babe…

Quit playing around, like it’s a game,
You tell me to go, you tell me to stay,
Living with you is emotional,
Roller coaster ride, like you’re just gone and hide,

Crossing the T’s, inviting the I’s,
Trying to make it work but you won’t let me,
It’s like you’re fighting with your self,
But baby I can tell, that you really don’t wanna leave,

(chorus)
Love is a game for you, I see, but it means a lot more to me,
To ride it out when the going gets rough,
Then she closed the first real love,
Can’t keep playing around with me,
If you really don’t want me to leave,


Cos if love is a game, then I don’t wanna play,
Cos there’s someone out there for me,

Love is just a game…

Heard you were on the phone just the other day,
Talking to your girls, telling you that I’m leaving,
If you didn’t mean it then why did you say it,
Cos love it ain’t a game to me,

I’m packing my bags here I go again,
Wanna kick me out, ok, well I’m leaving,
And with those shorties came, so baby tell me
What’s it gonna be,

CHORUS

I’m tired of all the fussing, and the fighting
We can’t keep, just going on this way
So tired babe and angry,
You hurting me over and over again,
You making me wanna leave,
U don’t understand just what you’re doing to me
Maybe we’re not meant to be,

Ne-Yo "Because of you"

· Audio CD (May 1, 2007)
· Original Release Date: April 24, 2007
· Number of Discs: 1
· Label: Def Jam

Track list:

01- Because of you

02- Crazy Ft. Jay-Z

03- Can we chill

04- Do you

05- Addicted

06- Leaving tonight Ft. Jennifer Hudson

07- Ain’t thinking about you

08- Sex with my ex

09- Angel

10- Make it work

11- Say it

12- Go on girl

The album is a mixture of jazz with RnB toppings on it, its quiet good. Meaningful lyrics and NE-YO’s performance is amazing, some of the beats weren’t that good but if you judge the whole package, you will see and get an amazing CD.

This album reminds me of Donell Jones music, through out the album you’ll get a wonderful vibe, soothing lyrics and vocals. I personally loved “because of you” “make it work” “say it”.

I’m not sure a lot of people will love this CD, most of the songs are not commercial; and the rest are just smooth.

If I would rate this album, than I will give it 4/5 (didn’t like the production that much).

Timbaland presents "Shock Value"


· Audio CD (April 3, 2007)

· Original Release Date: April 3, 2007

· Number of Discs: 1

· Format:

· Label: Interscope Records


Track List:

01- Oh Timbaland

02- Give it to me Ft. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake

03- Release Ft. Justin Timberlake

04- The way I are Ft. Keri Hilson & D.O.E

05- Bounce Ft. Dr.Dre, Missy Elliot & Justin Timberlake

06- Come & Get me Ft. Tony Yayo & 50 cent

07- Kill Yourself Ft. Sebastian & Attitude

08- Board Meeting Ft. Magoo

09- Fantasy Ft. Money

10- Scream Ft. Keri Hilson & Nicole Scherzinger

11- Miscommunication Ft. Keri Hilson & Sebastian

12- Bombay Ft. Amar & Jim Beanz

13- Throw it on me Ft. The Hives

14- Time Ft. She wants Revenge

15- One & only Ft. Fallout Boy

16- Apologize Ft. One republic

17- 2 man show Ft. Elton John

I was waiting for this CD for a while now, I finally got it. The Beats as usual is amazing, but there are some tittles which I couldn’t like, such as “Release” “Bounce” and “Bombay”. In Bounce Dr.Dre does an OK performance, I mean it wasn’t at all his style and it felt like he was an amateur rapper trying to cut it to the industry.

What caught my ears in this CD and at the same time I felt that I was strange to this album is the verity of genres that Timbaland sailed with this CD. In other sense Timbaland was trying to show case his talent and let everybody know “what ever he touches, turns to gold”, and it did. A lot of pop lovers would love to get their hands on this CD, but for those who were looking for R&B sweet beats that he made back in the days, or the Hip-Hop beat that makes you “flip flop” won’t bother much about the CD.

Highlight:

Release” and “Give it to me” are nice, but they are not what am looking for, they are more pop.

The way I are” it’s an amazing song, yet it sounds like it been done before, it sounds like Justin Timberlake’s songs with some of the Madonna flavor in it. Nothing new in it; But the performance of Keri was amazing as usual.

Come & get me” I thought I wont like this song, but I think its an ok song; its way much better than bounce.

Board Meeting” I love magoo’s style in Rapping,

Kill yourself” I don’t have to talk about the beats. I was waiting to hear Sebastian and he sounds a lot like timba but I think he has a lot to offer.

Fantasy” I loved the rhythm to this song and the beats were something, in some parts Money sounds like Mya; “

Scream” Keri Hilson and Nicole in one song, this is amazing, the beats cant be more Timbalicious.

Miscommunication” Keri and Sebastian, the song is more like Nelly Furtado and Justin’s style, I couldn’t like the song but I loved Keri’s performance in this.

Bombay” Simply he is trying to reach the Asian audience.

Throw it on me” Bouncing beats with rockish style on it, the perfect beats to dance on or rap on. Fantastic BEAT, couldn’t like the performance thou.

Time”, I heard this from Either Oblivious or Nab’s, its not what I like. Alt. Rock I guess, or somewhere there.

One & Only” Now this track has an 80ish style plus Fullout boy has an amazing vocals, I so loved this song, Alt. Rock. Bouncing beats.

apologiaz” I heard this song from Either oblivious or Nab’s, this song needs me to be in a certain mood to love it, somehow I kind a like it! Strange thou, I didn’t like it the 1st time I heard it, but the beats are getting interesting and one republic is somehow cool.

2 man show” Elton john and Timba the perfect duet. A great pianist collaborating with the best producer, although Elton doesn’t sing in it, but the way he played through out the song made it sound good, am not a big fan of his songs, but I love his tones.

I was waiting to hear Keri Hilson and Sebastian (Timba’s Brother) these two artists would sell platinum in my opinion; they are amazing in few words.

Plus I would’ve loved Ginuwine to be in one of the songs there, it would have been an amazing song in my opinion, as for now I don’t have a favorite song but I liked the album a lot.

The album worth buying, 4.5/5

Timbalicious the beats are!

The Notorious B.I.G "Can I Get Witchya "Bigg T Fruity Loops remix""

Well, i loved the beats and the melody to this one and i couldnt finalise it due to my hectic schedule, but im attending too (hopefully), this track resembles me and what i like to do in music most, i love mixin' timba's style with diddy's attitude in producing plus west coast passion. This beat somehow inspires me lol, im not quiet sure how but it does.


I need to add vocals as chours and add a third verse, maybe some time later, plus add some more instruments and tones to the song, the song is 50% ready and the other 50% would be ready soon. enjoy this till the Part 2!!
