Drake – “Unforgettable” Feat. Jeezy [Download]
Another down-tempo, R&B ish flavored joint from Drake that has leaked and it features Jeezy. It also features an Aaliyah sample from her cover of “At Your Best” by The Isley Brothers. This sounds like something more from So Far Gone, and I think at this point, that is exactly what Drake needs. His old fans aren’t connecting with his new material and his new fans are connecting with his new material either LOL. Jeezy has some nice bars on this too. This is in the pocket!
The Roots – “Dear God 2.0″ Feat. Jim James (My Morning Jacket) & Monsters of Folk [Download]
Wow, I have heard Jim James a couple of times on some My Morning Jacket songs, but on the whole it’s not my preferred genre of listening. However, leave it to The Roots to flip that script. I am loving this joint, and it all works. The instrumentation, the tempo, the myriad of sounds and the production working to put it all together…I like it. June 22nd, new Roots! The tracklist looks interesting, too.
Estelle – “Fall In Love” [Download]
I think Estelle’s first song to drop, “Freak”, might have been TOO much, video and song wise. It wasn’t bad, but the shock value was high, the music was uber-dancey and it was just totally in your face. So, she follows up with “Fall In Love” which has hit the web. Where “Freak” was too much, I think “Fall In Love” is a little TOO safe. Estelle hopefully won’t suffer the sophmore jinx Stateside, because she has grown on me a lot. This song isn’t bad, but I def don’t see this becoming a huge hit…

Looking forward to the new Roots album. But I have a request for you IPS…can we pls get a review (or at least a mention) of Leela James’ new album? I previewed some of the singles on itunes and it def sounds like a banger. Ppl who enjoy good, soulful vocals (and not just Rihanna/Ciara-esque writhing about to sell a record) should appreciate this. Just my 2 cents :D

@mslady I will try my HARDEST!! Just for you. I’m a little overwhelmed, which is why I haven’t written a lot of reviews lately, that’s all.
