Has anyone tried out the new album?

His last one was pretty decent, and I just got a free download from starbucks for "100 yard dash." Its not the best song on the album but I think its a solid disc and I'd to get some headsup on whether or not its worth the cash.

In case you havn't heard him....

I didnt like it. It was the Amy Winehouse Back to Black formula, using tracks that sounded old school to ride the current popular wave trend. The devaluated the entire project for me.

On that one? Or are you refering to newer sounding things because that has a very motown 60's soul sound to it. It even extends to the style...?

No and it still says it's not available. Some vids are not available in the UK, maybe that is it.

see if you can dig it up though

Be here, last name might be Saadiq, but its worth your time.

That vid is pleasant enough but far too polished for me. Does he mix it up or is it more of the same?

TheBig3 · 10-08-2008, 02:55 PM

be here sounds nothing like his new stuff, Let me try and grab a song for you...

"never give you up" has stevie wonder so that might be nice

but "love that girl" is coming up as a fan favorite.
