So, I purchased a copy of Alicia Keys 4th Studio Album " The Element of Freedom"
I am so amazed musically for this particular album. I love track 7,9,11... I guess I am into to even numbers, however, I think since around 10:00am I have listened to the album in its' entirety 5 times today. I simply love that fact that a new up and coming rapper who happens to be from Toronto Canada, Drake, is credited in writing track 7 Unthinkable/ ( I'm Ready) for Ms. Keys.
I love the lyrics, and the symbolism behind them. This album speaks volumes to the conscious music listener. The lyrics are definitely a breath of fresh air for those who have been looking for some real music instead of this " snap" your fingers music in today's world of R&B, Jazz,Hip- Hop, and Rap. This Album gets a thumbs up

Let's Talk Kem
So lately I have been listening to some borderline Jazz/ Smooth R&B Music.
I would like to recommend Kem's " Album II", I love this artists ability to combine the elements of Jazz with the lyricism of those Neo Soul Poets, the free spirited laureates of long ago. I absolutely love it! My favorite song on the Album is " Heaven", track 2. I really believe in lyricism, which is such a paradox considering I read, have written, and know music pretty well. I fight constantly with the ability to love w song based on the classical conventions of what a great song is and what makes great lyrics. So I will just say that I like Kem's Album. So, just like any other request to those out in the music loving world, please go and buy this Album. You might even start harmonizing after you listen to a couple of songs, lol. It was just a thought.
Much Love,

Sooo... Music Late-ly?
Just wanted to let the masses know that I really really really like the song " Already Home" by Jay-Z and Kid Cudi from Jay-Z's Blueprint III Album. All I have to say is go listen to it... Heck, buy it if you have too. I promise, you will not regret the purchase.
