This week we have got it ALL! From Alesha Dixon’s new track to a singing Drag Queen Chipmunk also known as Kat Deluna…. get ready to start our Week In Singles.
After the brilliant “Breathe Slow” Alesha releases her 3rd single “Let’s Get Excited” and while the song is not as brilliant as her last single, it will keep her on the charts long enough for her to release some of the better songs on her album.
I can see why this song was released just in time for Spring/Summer, cos it’s light and has loads of “treat me right” attitude which is always a good thing. The thing I like about Alesha is the way she sings upbeat songs. There is just so much fun in her voice that she almost makes you forget the song is kinda forgettable. (I said… KINDA)
I’m sure the video will feature lots of booty shaking and lots of sass which is something we are quite used to seeing from this little British minx. I’m sure that she will not disappoint in the dance department cos her dancing was A-mazing on “Breathe Slow” and that was a ballad. I’m really starting to think that Alesha is better off solo than with Mis-teeq. Cos this girl deserves to have the spotlight all to her self. GOOD 4 HER!
My Rating: 4 hours of hot sex with one of her dancers from this live clip.
Ciara is back yet AGAIN, this time she trying Justin Timberlake on for size. PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE THIS WOMAN A HIT! This is the 3rd single released from her “Fantasy Ride” CD which hasn’t even been released yet.
“Love, Sex & Magic” is storming up the charts (FINALLY!) and some say this will be her biggest hit. Well let’s hope so cos while her last single was BRILLIANT it went nowhere. This song isn’t as good as “Never Ever” but it will get her back on the charts and get her that hit that she so desperately needs. The other good thing about this song is that Justin Timberlake doesn’t sound as annoying as he does on most songs which he is featured in. He always tries to stand out a bit too much but here he keeps his inner N’sync boy in check, cuts the crap and lets Ciara shine.
Finally what I’m really questioning is the single cover. Now, is just me or has Ciara been watching a little too much Rupaul’s Drag Race. It looks as though someone phoned Rebecca Glasscock to pose for Ciara’s single cover. NOT a good look.
My Rating: 3 slightly feisty Post-op Trannies.
Have you ever wondered what you would get if you crossed a drag queen and a chipmunk? Well you would most likely get Kat Deluna.
Kat is the “try to hard to be latina thug” version of J.Lo. This is a big’ol mess and it seems that she is quite proud of it. “Unstoppable” is the first single off of her 2nd album “Inside Out” and to say the song is a stinker would be the understatement of the year.
Kat has given up “singing” and is now just screaming her songs out to ANYONE who will take the time to listen. It seems as though everyone has lost interest in this poor old chipmunk, including her record label, I mean how else would you explain this video. Now, I have seen my share of bad videos but this one takes the dick. You KNOW you look bad when you are channeling Linda Blair in the “The Exorcist” and 2 dollar hooker. NOT flattering Alvin, I mean.. Kat.
My Rating: Make Kat watch this just once. It’s punishment enough for ALL of us.
Single Of The Week:
I guess it was only a matter of time before some woman threatened to throw her pocketbook at a cheating lover that was doing her wrong. That is what it has come down to. Why stop there? Why not just throw something that will really hurt?
This is Jennifer Hudson’s 3rd single, “Pocketbook” and sings “Don’t make me hit you with my pocketbook”. The lyrics are your typical “don’t make me get up and kick your ass muthafucka” lyrics. Now why is this my single of the week? Well, first of all it’s the WAY Jennifer sings that really does it for me. She has got an amazing voice and her “don’t fuck with me attitude” in this song really does it for her. From the sounds of it, you so don’t want to make her mad. The other thing that is great about the song is the production. Thanks to Timbaland, Jennifer shows us all that she can get funky, let loose and abuse her man with any object she can find near her. You Go!
