Tweet Raphael Saadiq is back with some old soul steezo. This one is called “Stone Rollin’” and it is cool. Forgive the 1960s-vibe, but it’s something Saadiq has pretty much been on since he changed his name from Wiggins (remember, Tony, Toni, Tone?) The video for “Stone Rollin’” features a vamp walking through the city ...
Tweet Classic R&B songstress Conya Doss is back with ‘All in You,’ her latest single from her latest album. Doss represents that classic soul voice. You won’t find her up in the club, you won’t find her on the gossip sites. She is a true professional, and a singer, this generation’s Anita Baker. Doss is ...
Tweet You never know what you’re going to get when an artist’s tagline is “Singer. Songwriter. Alchemist.” But Candice Anitra might want to add another one: Certified Banger.

U.S. music artists have been stuck in a rut lately; dulled and lulled by the T-painization and Lil-Wayneism of popular music, if you will. Nicole Willis, who’s “If This Aint ...
Tweet It is on pleasant autumn days such as this that I wantonly miss the good old days of music: Soul albums. To be more specific, the texture and warm feel of a vinyl record that produces soulful sounds. I miss linear notes. I miss the cover art, big and bold colors that were as ...
Tweet I struggled with my feelings for weeks now; trying my darndest to come up with an excuse, a valid reason why I should keep “BLACKsummer’s night” in the CD player.I finally took it out last week.In the end though it was simply about the music. Truth be told — and I love Maxwell — ...
Tweet One reunion after another it’s become apparent, Envogue, the New Jack Swing’s answer to the Supremes, are poised to make a comeback.
