Actually really digging the new Ne-Yo track (save for one sub-Bruno Mars line right at the beginning)
― Evan R, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 14:29 (1 year ago) Permalink
This is actually pretty great.

Have we talked about Emanny's Songs About Her? I know I got it from one of y'all either here or on Tumblr or somewhere. It triangulates Drake, The Weeknd and Ne-Yo basically but it's awesome because he has actual songwriting chops and just uses that post-40 soundscape to really dig into solid songs.

That might have been my rec. I'm still really digging it. Seems like he's sort of positioned himself as a more traditionalist Bei Maejor; he embraces a lot of the same post-Anticipation sounds, but usually stays grounded in Mario/Ne-Yo balladry. This one's probably my fav right now

new jhene aiko -

wow that's great
and she's still really freaking hot
― twittering spinster (k3vin k.), Saturday, 2 June 2012 19:50 (11 months ago) Permalink
huh, jhene aiko and adiah were the same person to me until a minute ago
― twittering spinster (k3vin k.), Saturday, 2 June 2012 19:57 (11 months ago) Permalink
seriously, k3v? totally different vibes, to my ears.
adiah's stuff is much more, for lack of a better word, tropical? upbeat? i dunno. 'drumz' and that new song are both 'fun' or whatever.
jhene is basically the female sonic equivalent of drake and the weeknd for r'n'b but lex likes her. sometimes. she's also affiliated somewhat with kendrick + the black hippy crew and it sounds like it.
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Saturday, 2 June 2012 20:16 (11 months ago) Permalink
also affiliated w/ miguel + fisticuffs

i mean, they both kind of sound like cassie, i guess, but not even in the same way
― The Reverend, Saturday, 2 June 2012 20:24 (11 months ago) Permalink
yeah i mean in fairness i've heard like 2 songs by each of them and they're both incredibly hot, aiko moreso i think

i find jhené aiko really uncompelling actually
― kanye kardashian (lex pretend), Monday, 4 June 2012 12:08 (11 months ago) Permalink
it's kind of like someone trying to deliberately recreate the prime cassiefanclub aesthetic (which cassie herself seems guilty of as well these days)
I don't really see the Cassie/Jhene comparison besides the thin voice? Cassie's songs, while sort of detached in performance still have a certain air of either (a) menace a la Me & U or (b) sweetness a la most of the rest of her stuff. It's bubblegum, and it's thin but it's polished and 'pop'. Jhene's stuff seems like Cassie trying to do Drake.
Much closer to the sonic universe of Drake/The Weeknd/this new Emanny album/Anticipation-era MMTS/whatever.
Old-school Cassie was always much tighter, either in her post-Neptunes R-Leslie incarnation or the more actively R&B but also club music era of Connecticut Fever, or King of Hearts, which is straight-up dance music, beautiful-detached-robo-Cassie vocals or no.

that's why it's my favourite! it was never a real album and it never will be, but it's such a great name and it's the best way to shorthand

i really wish drake would've named a mixtape Toronto Fever
― J0rdan S., Monday, 4 June 2012 15:02 (11 months ago) Permalink
I mean, his first mixtape was called "Room for Improvement" which is almost as great.
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Monday, 4 June 2012 15:06 (11 months ago) Permalink
"Degrassi Fever" would be better, tbh.
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Monday, 4 June 2012 15:07 (11 months ago) Permalink
he called himself the Tony Montana of Toronto, that's enough for me

jhene has this kind of subtle jazzy element to her that cassie does not (nor drake/weeknd)
