We have waited, waited and waited some more before finally hearing Cassie's new song called "King Of Hearts" and boy was it worth the wait. The Bad Boy singer delivers a sultry performance on the techno beat that has young and young at heart dancing. "King Of Hearts" which was produced by J2 has the [...] Cassie "King Of Hearts" W Lyrics is a post from: RnB Music Blog

Blessed are the bands that still release real singles, thereby keeping alive the dying art of the B-side whilst simultaneously driving completists like myself batty. Los Angelinos Batwings Catwings paraded out the noisegasmic Radio single a while back, and now they're handing over the flipside simply as a way of giving back to fans. Early Exit is a synth-heavy neo-new wave workout that presses your nostalgia buttons without turning a cold shoulder to the band's signature serrated attack. Did I mention you can dance to it if you're so inclined? [...]

Lovely Bad Things' re-release of their cassette New Ghost/Old Waves now both on vinyl and available for download, is doing nothing to help the acute jonesin' for summer weather that afflicts all thoroughly soaked, sun-deprived Pacific Nor'westers this time o'year. Believe you me. You can practically smell the coconut scented Coppertone when their dreamy AM radio sounds come wafting through your speakers. With their infectious guitar riffs and wall-of-sound guy-girl harmonies, it's hard to decide whether you should backcomb your hair into a beehive and do the frug, or [...]

Back in May of last year, when last I spoke of Giant Drag and their upcoming sophomore album, frontwoman and all-around kooky lady Annie Hardy had gone through serious health problems and shitty dealings with the music industry. Fast forward to now, things are looking up. Label has been found, new album will see the light of [...]
It took Brandy and Monica 14 long years to get back in the studio and deliver the sequel to their smash hit "The Boy Is Mine" called "It All Belongs to Me"- now the question was it worth the wait - seeing the track has leaked in full let us dive in it and find [...] Brandy And Monica New Song "It All Belongs To Me" (Listen) is a post from: RnB Music Blog

Having dropped Simple Song in January, we now have more new Mercer in the form of its b-side, September. It's a woozy acoustic number with some some great western electric guitar noodles and of course an airy vocal from Mercer himself in which he admits 'i've been selfish and full of pride' . Indeed. The Simple Song single and accompanying September is out February 14, followed by the release of The Shin's new album, Port of Morrow , due out March 20th. The video was premiered [...]

Here We Go Magic released the first details of their new album, A Different Ship . The album was produced by Nigel Godrich, who is the long-time producer of Radiohead and considered their 6th member by man. The band met Godrich after he and Thom Yorke caught a set by Here We Go Magic at Glastonbury in 2010. The first track from the album is the funky Make Up Your Mind that we have for you to stream and download. A Different ship is set [...]

Boosting collaborations with Greg Dulli, Isobel Campbell and Josh Homme among others, Mark Lanegan has been contributing to plenty of great music over the past couple years. Now, after capturing the crown for the king of the cameo, the dour frontman is dusting off the Mark Lanegan Band and bringing his own foreboding songcraft back to the forefront. His first solo outing since 2004's Bubblegum , Blues Funeral drops February 7th on 4AD and features guest turns from the aforementioned [...]

We here at MOKB are no stranger to the outlaw lifestyle, so we feel a certain amount of kinship with ol' Shooter Jennings . And while it seems like we've been waiting a coon's age for the official follow up to the apocalyptic Black Ribbons , on March 13th, that patience will pay off in spades when we get Family Man in our grubbies. Backed by The Triple Crown, a new New York-based unit featuring Erik Deutsch on piano, Jeff Hill [...]

Yesterday, Rolo Tomassi treated us to the first taste of their as-yet-untitled upcoming third studio album, in the form of new single, 'Old Mystics' . It's the first new music we've heard from the band (as opposed to the previously unreleased demos and the like on Eternal Youth ) in nearly two years, so we were pretty damned excited to hear it. First of all, go and listen to the song over on Rolo Tomassi's official Facebook page . At the [...]
Let the soulful voice of Miss Dondria take you back, way back in the 19902s when R'n'B was sweet, smooth and lead to baby making. As promised Miss Dondria has unveiled her new mixtape called "Dondria Duets 3: The 902s Edition" for free and I must say it is worth your time. On it, she [...] Dondria "Dondria Duets 3: The 902s Edition" Mixtape (Listen) is a post from: RnB Music Blog
R. Kelly wants to do nothing more than share love on the first single off his upcoming eleventh studio album "Write Me Back" that is set to be released later this year via RCA Records. On the disco-flavored track "Share My Love," Kelly takes the listener back to the 19702s and influences from music greats [...] R. Kelly "Share My Love" : New Song From "Write Me Back" Album (Listen) is a post from: RnB Music Blog
Here's "The First Time I Ran Away," a new song (and video) from M. Ward from his forthcoming album A Wasteland Companion , which comes out April 10. The charming animated clip was directed by Joel Trussell, who was also responsible for the lovely video for "Chinese Translation," and indeed this song hearkens back to Post-War era M. Ward, offering flickering, watery production over a simple melody. This isn't the kind of tune that immediately hooks itself into your psyche, but its impressionistic melody feels like an idea that is quite comfortable rolling around inside [...]

The Kitsuné compilation series are always something that I look forward to. Put one of those on a party and your music duties are done for an hour or two. The newest release, Kitsuné Parisien II , features a new track, titled So Long, My Love , from Air member Jean-Benoit Dunckel's side project Tomorrow's World . Contributing vocals on the track is Lou Hayter from New Young Pony Club and The New Sins. The track contains a pulsating beat with screeching noise flowing under the airy vocals of Hayter. You [...]
While others were bummed out when J. Tillman announced that he would be leaving the Fleet Foxes, we were quietly excited that the often overlooked and very talented Tillman would be able to release more solo material. We loved him Fleet Foxes, but often felt that his talents were not being utilized to their full extent. Little did we know that we would see new material so soon and that it would be under the name, Father John Misty . Released today was the first song, titled Hollywood Cemetary Sings , [...]

One of the more neglected sounds in popular indie music (if there is such a thing) are those that take away from the hardcore funk and psychadelic movements of the late 80s and early 90s. In comes Pond to change that. Pond is comprised of members of Tame Impala that take some of their trippier moments and combine that with heavy basslines and in your face guitar licks. For those old enough, flashbacks to early Lenny Kravitz will instantly hit with the soulful, funky vocals on Moth Wings , not to mention [...]
Brandy and Monica have been locked up in the recording studio cooking up the sequel to their 1998 hit "The Boy Is Mine" called "It All Belongs to Me" and thanks the Moesha's actress fan site, we can now have a little taste of the forthcoming record. "It All Belongs to Me" which was written [...] Brandy & Monica "It All Belongs To Me" Snippet is a post from: RnB Music Blog
Pop/techno Dev is not the only singer advising people to let their hands do want they want. "Touch Me (Like U Touchin Urself)" is the title of a new sexy tune by Chris Brown which features singer Se7en that has hit the internet this afternoon.
