The HairyKat Chronicles

 Dont worry HairyKats I'm getting my hair done today so you'll def get a new blog about some new hair do's but I had to comeback for another round of the tracklist because I'm uber excited about this one. While doing my usual new music search Monday night I came across the Dawn Richard-EP titled Amor On. Its 10 songs. My nosey self decided to check the label it was under and of course Bad Boy was not listed. Shocker? Nope! Its the Bad Boy way! Check Mase, 112, Day 26, must I go on...the only one still on Bad Boy, is well Diddy. Anywho, if you loved the sound of Last Train of Paris you'll def love this EP. Its ecclectic, rhythmic, yet melodramitc. I love it! Its uptempo base beats track after track to lyrics that are heartfelt and soulful makes for one good EP. Hey if this is an EP what is her album gonna sound like? Sheesh. This woman has definetly created her own genre, her own sound! Guess that Last Train to Paris was real...Dirty Money aint coming back! ...

Hey HairyKats, Its time for some new music. So The MF Life by Melonia Fiona dropped last Tuesday. I spent my time with it and I like it...but I have to be in the mood to listen to it. Its her sophmore album which is in my opinion an artist's make or break moment, for the most part . For a sophomore album she's definetly evolved as an artist. Her voice is raw! its real! there are no machines! which is what I love. I feel like this album is reflective of her diary/journal at a very specific point in her life. Which gave it a sort of montone feel, emotionally, if you are the type of listener that connects music to what you are feeling. For some artists you can listen to one of their albums and it will curtail to your every mood. I will say though, that this album definetly breaks the mode for what we all expect for an album to be you know 3 pop song like singles, 2 vocal displaying ability songs, a super bass track featuring the hottest rapper at the time, and then some ran...

Sophmore albums are the most difficult for any artist so when Estelle's All of Me  dropped last week I was curious to see how she would follow-up from her 2008 Shine album. I fell in love with the first single Break My Heart and after listening to the album I have found my favorite song of the week. Now we all know I have a Trey Songz obsession...so this one may be biased lol! But I love Estelle's delivery and Trey hits us with his melodic precision in the form of rap on this track. Also featuring Chris Brown who I think just brings magic to music! AND produced by David Banner! Its called International (Serious) Enjoy!!!!
