This has been a great week in new music, Mariah Carey & Letoya Luckett have both dropped singles that we are totally in love . Is the summer ready for these two divas on the charts?
Drake, Trey Songz, and Day 26 are among other artist that have shot videos and dropped singles this week…
This video for “Broken Hearted Girl” is simple but really good. It shows all of Beyonce’s beauty and talent.
Will recently updated his official youtube channel with an exclusive look at Day 26’s “Perfectly Blind” music video. Directed by Iran Shedfield, this will be the third single from their sophomore album “Forever In A Day”.
Mariah Carey has returned trying to get another #1 single. The lead track off her Memiors of an Imperfect Angel album is “Obsessed“. We are literally obsessed with this song! The songs talks about a guy that is totally obsessed with you that he actually runs around lying about your relationship, or lack there of one. Mariah worked with The-Dream & Tricky on this track, that’s why their is a lil auto-tune. I wonder what Jay-Z has to say about this one… It’s said that she is coming at Eminem, because he continues to talk about their rumored relationship.
Standout Lines:
“Why are you so obsessed with me/ Boy I wanna know/ Lying that you’re sexing me/ When everybody knows/ It’s clear that you’re upset with me,”
“You’re a mom-and-pop, I’m a corporation. I’m a press conference, you’re a conversation”
LeToya Lucket refuses to disappear in the shadows of these other R&B divas. You can always expect a great sad song from Miss.LeToya, and she sure brought it this time. Her next album is entitled Lady Love, and the latest single is “Don’t Need You”. The song empowers you and let’s you know you deserve and need better. This is a great breakup song for the songstress. The lyrics are incredible and really heartfelt. The track was produced by Madd Scientist.
Standout Lines:
“I’m A Keeping Smiling, I’m A Keep it Moving, cuz I Don’t Need You”
“Who would have thought that someone so INDEPENDENANT/ Would become so damn SUBMISSIVE”

Detroit based singer, K’Jon, has been getting a serious buzz on the internet as fans look forward to his album, I Get Around, which will be released the first week of August. Check out K’Jon myspace to hear tracks from his upcoming album.
Trey Songz & Drake are like the greatest duo in the world right now. With new albums set to drop soon, they guys hit the studio again. Trey Songz latest leaked track “Invented Sex” is a catchy foreplay song, that will get anyone in the mood to do that nasty…Drake adds his swag to the already dope track. These two should just have a mixtape together, that would be HUGE. We love that Trey Songz is starting to get more respect by the music world. We just hope they don’t start crediting Drake for his recent success..

It seems like we’ve been waiting half a century for a new single from Rihanna. “Te Amo” is infused with latin strings and carries with it the aura of summer. No word yet on whether or not the song will be featured on her upcoming album but we’ll keep our ear to the grapevine. Pop the hood to listen and let us know what you think!
Check out the single here
I could go another half a century without music from Rihanna. She should just keep serving up the style!
