Music: Cee-Lo – Robot Sex

The Lady Killer leaks out a record that I’m assuming didn’t make it on the actual Lady Killer album. Cee-Lo explains that “she doesn’t want that robot sex; She wants human touch”…… And I agree! Minus the thriller laughing at the end of the track I really enjoy it, funky baselines and groovy vocals, nice!

Music: Timbaland feat. Lyrica Anderson – Mentally

Timbaland drops his latest Timbaland Thursday’s release and it is a collaboration with Lyrica Anderson, who was featured on Shock Value, titled, “Mentally”. A pop track about breaking up, it’s decent but nothing special, as this whole series has been basically garbage. Tim might not get the idea of releasing music this way. It is not about just putting out leftovers which you didn’t want to release before. The music still has to be good to create a buzz! Needless to say, some of you may like it so check it out.
