New Music: Ameriie- “Outside Your Body”

http://soundcloud.com/trent-1-1/ameriie

Seems as though everyone is going the Pop/Synth route.  I’m not mad at her for wanting to step outside her lane, but I love the  R&B/Funk Ameriie.   She recently took to her Twitter page to announce she was changing her name to “Ameriie,” and subsequently her Twitter profile name to “@ItsAmeriie.”
Ameriie reportedly said that she added the extra “I” to her name to “reflect positive energy.” She has also been in the studio recently, working on her upcoming album, ‘Cymatika Vol. 1,’ a word derived from “cymatics” — the study of visible sound and vibration. The first single from the album, entitled ‘Who’s Gonna Love You,’ was released back in May. As for the sound of her new album, Ameriie said, “I’m still in the studio right now, so the best thing I can say is it’s a very international, worldly sound.”

New Album: Cee-Lo “The Lady Killer”

Check this new song out by Cee-Lo, “Bodies.”  One of my favorites on the CD, “The Lady Killer.”  Cee-Lo always bring the soul, stories, and realness to his music, and “The Lady Killer” is no different.  His previous two offerings with Gnarls Barkley were pretty damn good!! In my opinion he always delivers, and I’m always excited to hear what he has to say.  He is one of those artists that thinks out the box and is not restrained to “a box”.   Love it!!!

Keri Hilson Speaks on Ciara Beef in New Magazine Article!

Miss Keri Baby is the cover subject of the latest issue of “Jones Magazine”, an urban fashion guide. In her exclusive cover story, which hits news stands on November 30th, she opens up about the feud between her and Ciara.

On beef with Ciara

“It was unfortunate, because we used to be really good friends. We let the media get in the way and speak for us, and we weren’t speaking to each other.”

On where their friendship stands now
“We’re good now. Nobody wants to fight with an old friend. It’s not cute, and it doesn’t reflect our character. Don’t get me wrong: I am feisty, but I’m not catty.”
