Lloyd ft. Trey Songz and Young Jeezy "Be The One"

I see I'm a little more behind on post than I originally thought. I just came across this new song by Lloyd featuring Trey Songz and Young Jeezy titled "Be The One." This uptempo song sounds like a great summer anthem. Or my type of summer anthem, I love it...

NEW MUSIC: Lloyd "Tears of a Clown" (Smokey Robinson Cover)

Yes you read that right, Lloyd covered Smokey Robinsons classic "Tears of a Clown." I try to be respectful of the greats such as the Smokey's of the world so I would never post anything that I felt was well disrespectful to the original. To be honest, I'm not quite sure how I feel about this remake. I LOVE Lloyd so I thought I'd press play and give it a chance. He actually sounds really good, I can tell that he borrowed a few things from the late great MJ as well. I get a good feeling instead of a bad one when I hear this remake so that must mean something right? Well I'll let you be the judge...OH and Don't hate me!!! :-)

NEW MUSIC: Beyonce " Best Thing I Never Had"

Last night at the stroke of midnight Beyonce' released her "official" second single, "Best Thing I Never Had." The song which was written by one of my favorites Babyface is a bittersweet tale of the "almost love" told by Bey's ever so strong vocals as she belts out:

"When I think of the time that I almost loved you, you showed your ass and I saw the real you. Thank God you blew it, thank God I dodged a bullet. I'm so over you so baby good lookin out... You turned out to be the best thing I never had."

The song reminds me of 90's R&B at it's best which of course means strong lyrics but we wouldnt expect anything less than that from one of the greatest writers...Babyface.

Favorite line:"Thank God I found the GOOD in Goodbye..." classic Babyface! Great lyrics.

Must listen:
