NEW MUSIC: MARIO – MY BED (NEW SINGLE)

Posted on June 21st, 2011 by ThisIsRnB in MUSIC |

Funny thing is, yesterday, I said Mario better drop a new single soon or he’s going to be lost. Looks like I wasn’t the only one thinking that. However, I used the word Hot, to describe my hopes for the song. I don’t think this lives up to those expectations. As much as Mario has been mainstream, and wants to receive that attention, he has the chops to make Great R&B, and that is what he should focus on. Moving on…Here is a brand new single from Mario, entitled “My Bed.” It is produced by Christopher “Deep” Henderson and Tony “Chef Tone” Scales. Maybe, it will grow on me…

NEW MUSIC: K. MICHELLE – WHEN YOU’RE GONE

K. Michelle shows her diversity on a brand new leak from her upcoming mixtape “S.T.O.R.M.,” with a powerful cover of Avril Lavigne’s “When You’re Gone.” The songstress proves she has a vocal for pop/rock just as much as R&B/Soul. I think she slayed it. Check it out!
