Quiet Bounce: Just A Lover Out To Score
This is the week for us to be thankful. For everything, from being able to wake up in the morning to being with the ones we love. You could say being thankful is what we live for. Unfortunately, that's not the case for everyone. Take Deniece Williams , for example. Back in 1981, not only didn't ...

As the Queen of Hip Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige has built an impressive catalog of gully dance grooves and deep slow jams. But did you know that her remix game over the years is also ridiculously off the hook? I'm talking about a true remix: where the music and lyrics are re-invented to advance the ...

Melanie Fiona Takes Us To Church
Melanie Fiona is many things: a singer who can really sing, an exotically gorgeous beauty and a natural comedian. Of those three traits, I have to say that the most endearing one for me is her ability to cut up anytime, anyplace. The woman is freaking hilarious. She has jokes for days and isn't ...

Kelis Sings 'Acapella'. But Is Anyone Trying To Hear Her?
It's safe to say that after her nasty divorce from Nas , Kelis kinda tore her drawers with, oh, everyone. In recent years she's become more known for drama than for her music.

No month-long homage to Mary J. Blige would in any way be complete without acknowledging her profound contribution to the genre known as Hip Hop Soul. When she was anointed its Queen by the King of Overexaggeration, Puff Daddy as he was known then, I will admit I did a double-take. True, the ...
