From reading reports on the matter, it appears that Nas and the late Amy Winehouse were pretty close. Brought together by artists like Salaam Remi, who produced their collaborative track "Cherry Wine", their distinct vocal deliveries complemented each other seamlessly. While we would have loved to see more music materialize, which we hope happens some day soon, "Cherry Wine" is one of the most bittersweet symphonies to touch down in 2012. Today, we also get our hands on the highly anticipated visuals that accompany the composition. Featuring a classy club setting, Winehouse's silhouette is [...]
Transitional periods in life often times provide the greatest lessons. For practically all of 2012, much of my time has been spent in the air and/or highway attending weddings of [...]
One of the most anticipated tracks on Nas' so-far-so-good upcoming LP Life Is Good , the Salaam-Remi produced "Cherry Wine" just got its proper debut on Tim Westwood's Radio 1 show. Obviously, the late Ms. Winehouse's presence on this track makes for a must listen sort of curiosity. "Cherry Wine" is nice though, cooking down Salaam's silky smooth production touch to speak vitality into rap journeyman Nas' inspired (for latter day Nas) rhymes. Amy & Mr. Jones. Nas ( Twitter [...]
The wait for July 17th has not been an easy one for those abstaining from Life Is Good track releases and it's not about to get any easier. Just 24 [...]
It's been out for more than a week, but I still haven't gotten around to listening to Amy Winehouse's Lioness: Hidden Treasures , which debuted this week on Billboard's Top 200 album chart at No. 5, with 144,000 copies sold in its first week. Why the delayed reaction to "new" music from such a great singer? It's just hard for me to get into posthumous albums. I've never listened to one that impressed me much. I prefer to remember my icons the way they were, not via outtakes cobbled together for one final cash-in, or as [...]
Sono proprio i due produttori Mark Ronson e Salaam Remi a raccontare come è stato realizzato “ Lioness: Hidden Treasures “, dopo aver compilato la tracklist e curato la pubblicazione con la collaborazione della famiglia Winehouse, del management e della Island Records. I quattordici minuti di "Hidden Treasures Story", sono la video-storia di come il disco postumo è stato assemblato. Ci sono anche il producer Paul O'Duffy e Nas , tra le voci che ripercorrono traccia dopo traccia la scaletta e svelano informazioni su ogni brano. Un'occasione in più per apprezzare [...]
![[Unreleased] Amy Winehouse – Halftime](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3893915_lg.jpg)
When first reported in July of 2010, imaginations began to stir: what brilliance would spring forth from the collaboration of Questlove , Salaam Remi and Amy Winehouse ? I'd say this is a pretty good window into where it was headed, and I would have loved to hear more. (via Swift.FM / Questlove ) Amy Winehouse - Halftime
E siamo a quota tre. Tre inediti dei dodici che saranno contenuti in " Lioness: Hidden Treasures ", il disco postumo di Amy Winehouse che la Island pubblicherà il prossimo 5 dicembre. Dopo " Like Smoke ” - il duetto con Nas - e " Our Day Will Come " - la cover del brano portato al successo dai Ruby & The Romantics - ecco "Halftime", che potete ascoltare in streaming video a inizio post. In realtà questa "Halftime" non è propriamente un inedito. Venne infatti registrata nove anni fa, quando Amy Winehouse entrò [...]
Now this is more like the type of stuff I was anticipating to leak from the Winehouse vault! With Salaam Remi on the boards, what we have here is a soulful, lush single that exceeds all other posthumous works we have seen thus far. This song will appear on Amy's Lioness: Hidden Treasures on Dec. 5.
This July the music world lost Amy Winehouse , who tragically became known more for her battles with personal demons than her immense musical talents, at the all too young age of 27. The retro soul singer, who had been rumored to be working on the follow up to her wildly successful 2007 sophomore effort Back To Black , left behind a collection of recordings that included unreleased tracks, alternate takes as well as a number of new tracks. Two of Winehouse's former producers - Marc Ronson and Salaam Remi - sifted through the material, and on December 6 [...]
Posthumously, Amy Winehouse is still rocking! This is a new song from the quickly put-together album of unreleased material called Lioness: Hidden Treasures . The song sounds like a cut from the Back To Black era. It's all taken from snippets of her previous videos and then some still to zoom into. It looks like a VH-1 Behind The Music documentary. Let's hope the unleash some unseen footage next time around. Filed under: Beats , Brit Brit Brit , Clip Tagged: amywinehouse , Back to Black , [...]
Posthumous music collections are always tricky because it's like YAAYY!! for "new" music, but BOO!! for big bad evil record companies trying to make a quick buck off of someone's death and BOO SOME MORE!! for the fact that the featured material usually isn't all that great (a main reason why it was "unreleased" in the first place). In the case of the forthcoming odds 'n ends Amy Winehouse collection Lioness: Hidden Treasures however, the cons of this kind of project don't loom as distressing since A: some [...]

Tracks from Amy Winehouse's posthumous Lioness: Hidden Treasures are leaking left and right. This is a new track from it called "Like Smoke" and it features Nas, or is it someone else? To tell you the truth, we wanted less rap and more Amy. Actually, no rap at all. That voice!

An artist dies, they're buried...and then the "posthumous albums" start rolling out and such will be the case for Amy Winehouse . Spokesman Chris Goodman says there is "plenty" of material in the can and an unnamed source close to Universal records claims that prior to her death the singer had the "framework" of around a "dozen" new songs . For now, discussions haven't begun on what will be released or a timeframe for when fans will receive the music. Frequent collaborator Salaam Remi confirmed that Winehouse had quite a [...]
