Tha ish: songs I’m feelin’

It’s been quite some time since I’ve updated my blog. My bad! In my defense, there really wasn’t a whole lot out there that my mojo going. Perhaps I’m a little hard to please!


There were a few songs that struck me and put a smile on my face. Check out my short list of fab new-ish songs.


Knock You Down

Keri Hilson feat. Kanye and Ne-Yo


I love love this song! Miss Keri, Baby is giving all the R&B girls a run for their money! She is seriously hitting us off with hit after hit. Turnin’ You On is still the ish, and her latest single is getting huge play. You go, girl!


Diva

Beyonce


I have soooo much attitude when I listen to this song! This is so the song that gets you hyped before you go out for a night on the town! Thanks, Bey!


My Life Would Suck Without You

Kelly Clarkson


I’m such a closet Kelly Clarkson fan! I can’t help it; her music totally helps me with my numerous relationship issues. Yes, I can identify with her angst! So it's no surprise that I love this song.


Anyways, take a listen to these songs and let me know what you think.

Tha ish: Turnin’ Me On- Keri Hilson


Forget the fact that this song is many months old, it’s still such a hot track. It’s such a hot track that I must listen to it on a daily.


I like how Keri’s voice straddles on being both slightly annoying and swaggerlicious. She starts off the song singing alongside a barely there accompaniment, and then a nice hip hop groove settles in and showcases her voice nicely.



The song itself is about how some men have that certain je ne sais quoi that turns you on, and also how some men don’t have game or the skills when approaching you
—which is a def turn off. I unfortunately meet men from the latter category.



I like her brazen self-assured attitude (and the different/edgy hairstyles that she rocks!) which doesn’t come off too arrogant (read: not Kanye-esque at all!), but simply confident.



More than midway through the song Lil Wayne enters and spits his lyrics. True, they are a bit juvenile, but you can always count on him to make a single hotter!



I know this song is a bit old, but it’s definitely worth a listen.
