Kels "Doubles Up" on the music leaks
From a recent press release sent to me:
"Moved by the terrible events at Virginia Tech last week, singer-songwriter R. Kelly has written and recorded a song of encouragement in memory of the victims and in condolence to their families.
As the details of the tragedy were unfolding last week, Kelly was traveling across the country on his tour bus for a performance. Deeply affected by the news, he was inspired to write lyrics he shaped into a song entitled, “Rise Up,” a moving anthem in honor and remembrance of the victims of this heartbreaking event.
At Kelly's request, his label, Jive/Zomba Records is making the track available as a digital single for sale on Tuesday, May 15th in hopes of spreading the message of hope and unity. R. Kelly and Jive will donate 100% of the net proceeds from the digital single sales to the university’s official fund, The Hokie Spirit Memorial Fund, and listeners who buy the track will be able to access a direct link to the memorial website. Recalling the spirit of triumph in one of Kelly’s previous celebrated anthems, “I Believe I Can Fly,” “Rise Up” is meant to offer encouragement and solace in the face of this senseless tragedy; “…We’ll be strong together, Stand together, Pray together, Rise up.” To learn more about the Hokie Spirit Memorial Fund, click here.
Listen to "Rise Up" below:
Oh yeah, he also has a record with Usher called "Same Girl" that just leaked but I doubt anyone cares about that, do they??

Bashing Hip Hop Post-Imus: the other side...
Image courtesy: NYT
Cos its starting to get a little crazy out there....
Kelefa Sanneh:
"[T]he anti-hip-hop fervor of the last few weeks has been extraordinary, if not quite unprecedented. Somehow Don Imus’s ill-considered characterization of the Rutgers women’s basketball team — “some nappy-headed hos” — led not only to his firing but also to a discussion of the crude language some rappers use.(click here for more from The New York Times)
Unlike previous hip-hop controversies [though], this one doesn’t have a villain, or even a villainous song.* The current state of hip-hop seems almost irrelevant to the current discussion."
Jim Farber:
"The way the protectors of the public good currently carry on about their favorite bogeyman - hip hop - you'd think popular music just reached some heady new peak of depravity in which the airwaves are awash in a non-stop bitch-ho spew.(click here for more from The Daily News)
Pardon me if all this strikes the music fan as more than a tad behind the curve. As someone who actually listens to all forms of popular music - as opposed to those who spend their hours just attacking it - I have to deliver some disappointing news:
Not only are we not submerged in some new Sodom, we're actually suffering through the most squeaky-clean phase in popular music since Pat Boone came in to shoo away all the sex and cool from the likes of Little Richard in the '50s."
Davey D: "Cheney, Rowe, Cohen, The Police - They Don’t Believe in Snitching so Why Should Hip Hop?" (click here for more)
* Other than, of all the rappers out there, MIMS and (not even a rapper) R. Kelly of course!

New(-ish) Amerie!!!
Via the Fader:
Amerie "Gotta Work" [MP3 | Stream]
So friggin' hot (the music too!)....
BONUS:
I know it's been out for a hot minute now (in blog time at least) but check out the Omarion/Usher "Icebox (remix)" here if you haven't already. BTW: how many R&B remixes have come out that feature guest singers (not rappers)? I'm sure there's probably been tons but off-top I can only think of this one and the also-recent Ciara "Promise" remix featuring R. Kelly. Music nerds, set me straight on this please 'cos I'm sure I must be missing some obvious ones from the past, no?
