August Recap Chapter IV: Hip Hop + R&B

• Really Doe - First Impressions - Like early Kanye, but less obnoxious
o Mesmerized
o They Say
o Sew It Up

• Mullage – Trick’n - Saw this on 106 & Park and really liked it

• Iyaz – Replay NOT Sean Kingston

• Mary J Blige – Stronger - Wasn't a big fan until I heard this amateur acoustic cover. Still like the cover better, but the recorded version is good too. *Written by Keri Hilson.

• Jason DeRulo – Watcha Say - Cool idea to put Imogen Heap into hip hop, but could have been done better, her clip in the chorus is the best part.

• Cassie – Let’s Get Crazy (ft. Akon) - I'm a big fan of her other new material, this one not as much

• Flo-Rida ft. Nelly Furtado – Jump (Malinchak club mix radio edit)
- Didn't like the original, but really like this remix. Can't find a full length clip so this will have to do.

• Basement Jaxx – Raindrops - This song is awesome

• Trey Songz - Ready - Should have been called Sunday Night Slow Jamz
o Neighbors Know my Name
o Say Ahh (ft. Fabolous)
o LOL :) (ft. Gucci Mane & Soulja Boy) - Worst lyrics ever, but good music
o Be Where You Are
o Love Lost
