« Summer Sundown | Main | Underground Soul: Sy Smith »

New Music Tuesday

Album Previews:

Slim Thug - Already Platinum (tracklist)

Bow Wow - Wanted (tracklist)

Fatty Koo - House of Fatty Koo (tracklist)

Flipsyde - We The People (tracklist)

Cafe Soul All-Stars Love Pages is a collection of songs by producers Clarence Smith (founder of Essence Magazine), Duke Jones and Norman Connors. The album features songs from Maysa, Peabo Bryson, George Benson, Glenn Jones, Vesta, Christopher Williams, Roy Ayers, Kenny Garrett, and many others singing new, never before released material. In stores August 23. Preview tracks here.

New Releases have been updated. I recommend Jaguar Wright's Divorcing Neo 2 Marry Soul [listen]. The Justus League is representing this week with releases from Buckshot & 9th Wonder (hear a few tracks here), L.E.G.A.C.Y. and The Away Team.

It's beginning to look like return of the old school. Aaron Hall (formerly of Guy), Charlie Wilson (formerly of the Gap Band) and Keith Sweat (fomerly of the R&B school of beggars) all have upcoming releases. Speaking of old school, Stevie Wonder and Earth, Wind & Fire's upcoming Cd's have been pushed back again *sigh*.

I'm anticipating Goapele's latest. She looks amazing on the album cover.

Listen To Craig David's new single All The Way and watch the video here (thanks Trent for this and the Slim Thug info)

If you haven't checked out the Video Soul section in a minute, make sure you do now. I've added some new videos from K-Os, Chino XL, Akon, and M.I.A. among others. Just when I got "galang galang" and "pull up the people pull up the poor" chants outta my head, now I have "whuh ya wan bucky done gun" in my head. Thanks M.I.A.

Thanks Khadji for the heads up about Havana. Her debut L.I.F.E. (Living In Fearless Emotion) features production from Nicolay, Waajeed, S1 and others. It's in stores this summer.

Thanks Alan for letting me know about Motown Magic. They play Tamla Motown tracks 24/7.
