Miguel has released his third single off of his debut album All I Want Is You. Well hot damn, that's some kind of quickie you've got going on, Miguel. I remember when I first heard this song; I thought it was Pretty Willie-- don't act like you don't know. I like the genuine R&B-esque factor of this song. It grooves and it's about love/sex. I can definitely see this being featured on a infomercial for a three disc R&B collection album in 5-10 years-- don't act like you don't know, again!

Watch The Throne- Mini Documentary
The King and the Prince of Hip Hop are gearing up to release their master project together, Watch the Throne. Many are anticipating the August 8, 2011 release, combining the lyrical flow of Jay-Z and the genius production of Kanye West; there are few features, most notably Beyonce and Frank Ocean.
Their single, "Otis" was released earlier last week, and a verified tracklist has been floating around in the blogosphere. Honestly, I wasn't feeling that "Otis" track when I first heard it, but a few more listens, and I may be sold. If anything, this documentary capturing the journey of creating a product from two of the most powerful Hip Hop artists made me amped about the project. I am interested in seeing whether or not fans will be satisfied with the end result, or overhyped and disappointed.
