WILL DOWNING - Classique (2009)

I have to admit that I am not really familiar with Will Downing even though he has been releasing albums since 1989. Classique is his latest offering. I do not which one should I recommend, His unique baritone vocals or the music on his songs but if it were up to me, i have to opt for the latter since I am not really a fan of his vocals. The singing was moderately mediocre to me, nothing impressive there thus leading me to believe that it was the music that make this album a big of a deal. Live instruments and percussion, varying from the old school RnB to Jazz to those typical Quiet Storm stuff here and there. Vocal wise? Just not my cup of tea.

GREEN DAY - American Idiot (2004) The only reason why am I putting this 2004 album is because it was so hard for me to get this album on the net when I finally decided that it was the time for me to try and give this album a proper listening. Green Day had just released their 2009 album titled 21st Century Breakdown a couple of months ago by the way and I think I shall wait for another couple more years before I give that one a try. After wimping out with a couple of "mature" albums, it was a relief to see this most popular punk rock band on the planet doing the hard political stuff again. Although Wake Me Up When September Ends was the typical ballad following the Good Riddance (time of your life) formula and I have to admit that the song was a very good, radio friendly and listenable song. One thing for sure, without Green Day and Offspring, MTV pop punk bands in the likes of Good Charlotte, Sum 41 and Simple Plan would still be in their respective garages playing to the e...

ANTHONY HAMILTON - The Point Of It All (2009) I got this one from Rapgodfathers. Big up to the nice people there for this album. I bet most of you will love this album. 14 tracks filled with soulful vocalizations. Anthony Hamilton is no rookie with his powerful rough and tough voice with crazy skills on the microphone. You will love the soulful tracks in the likes of "Please Stay" showcasing Hamilton's powerful vocals and the bluesy "Prayin For You/Superman" as a tribute to the old school part dance hall and part swingin blues jam on the keys. "Fine Again" is purely a fine gospel number and "I Did It For Sho" is a nice laid back cute jazz tune. All I can say is that you will find this album heavily influnced with gospel. For those who love a complete evolutionized from roots to the newer than new styles of RnB, than this album is for you. Although I am not a fan of Hamiltons but I still think this album is worth a try. Still not my cup of tea...
