FREE DOWNLOAD// JoJo Drops A Mature Mixtape

Published by nusoul on Monday, October 18, 2010 at 1:40 pm.

It’s been four years since pop singer JoJo released her sophomore album, The High Road, now she’s back and is all grown up. The now 19 year old singer is displaying a more mature sound with her newly released mixtape, which finds her exploring. ”This mixtape is more experimental, I was able to explore the full spectrum of things that interest me and inspire me musically,” said JoJo to Rap-Up. Granted she might still be young, but she has the pipes and conviction to pull off fun, sexy R&B with the class and swagger of someone twice her age.

SUBCENTRIC// LA Underground Celebrates Aaliyah’s Music

Published by nusoul on Wednesday, August 25, 2010 at 1:01 pm.

Los Angeles’ underground talent showed their love for fallen R&B icon Aaliyah on August 24 at Aaliyah Revisited—a special tribute event organized by Nu-Soul Magazine, Redlight Promotions, and SoulCulture. Hosted by singer Sy Smith, the event was inspired by the spirit of SoulCulture’s amazing Aaliyah Revisted EP—a collection of progressive soul takes of classic tracks from the late singer.

Sy opened the show with her atmospheric take on “If Your Girl Only Knew.” Each performer added their own twist to songs we have all come to love. Afta-1 and Nikko Gray (who appear on the EP) performed their impeccably produced and gorgeous “ESP (A Four Page Suite)”, essentially a mashup of “4 Page Letter” and “One In A Million” with the signature production vibe that only Afta-1 can create. Jimetta Rose brought down the house with her Ella Fitzgerald flavored version of “Hot Like Fire”, while Rogiérs got hips swaying with his rendition of “Rock the Boat.” Blues belter Gedina Jean gave a completely different spin on “If Your Girl Only Knew”, bringing in a guitar and rocking out.

The event was truly a loving and creative tribute to a timeless talent that will hopefully become an annual event. Be sure to download Aaliyah Revisted HERE and check out pics of the artists who participated after the break. Read the rest of this entry »
