Michael Jackson – You Rock My World (Urban Noize Remix)
You might’ve liked the original, or the Jay Z remix; but you will love this … guaranteed! We get another posthumous Michael Jackson album (“Xscape”). Sure. But the Miami based production team Urban Noize was like, “Let’s take it back to Off The Wall MJ days” with a little help from the early 80’s Ray Parker Jr classic “A Woman Needs Love (Just Like You Do).” Â Â This tribute remix to Michael’s 2001 hit “You Rock My World” does just that. Enjoy.

R&B/Soul: Usher – “Good Kisser” (NΞHZVIL Remix)
I’m digging Usher’s new single “Good Kisser” & quite a few R&B remixes have popped up since then that also sound very good. Check out what THIS soulful NΞHZVIL remix is hitting on for Usher’s “Good Kisser.” Kinda nice.
Vinyl Destination | Ep. 10 ‘Lost Luggage’ On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
How good is the timing of this episode? DJ Jazzy Jeff and friends are wrapping the tour and heading stateside in a few days. Why’s that good timing? What… you didn’t know Skillz and Jeff have a gig at Center Stage (Atlanta, Georgia, USA) this weekend? Well, you do now (click here for info)!
In this episode of Vinyl Destination, the crew treks to Biel (Switzerland) before a bit of a baggage snag in Novgorod (Russia). Then… the last night of the tour before hopping the big pond to LA (USA) for the Do Over.
R&B: Keke Wyatt – “Rain” featuring Pusha T
Keke Wyatt going for a very grown, very sexy vibe with Pusha T on “Rain.†Released as part of her self-titled EP (“Ke’Ke'”) out on iTunes.
R&B: Mars – “I’m About My Grind” featuring Nipsey Hussle
Unreleased until now. Uncelebrated no more. Check out this Mars x Nip Hussle collabo called “I’m About My Grind.”
R&B: Sasha Keable – “Sweetest Talk”
Gotta give ThisIsRnB credit…This is a good find! Sasha Keable calling out somebody fake on their “Sweetest Talk” over some snappy snares. Listen close to the rawness of the lyrics right from the start. Sexy, but there more depth of emotion to this. Run this a few times in your earphones (over your speakers if you’re off work and chilling).
Taken from my forthcoming EP “Lemon Grass & Lime Leaves.”

R&B/Soul: Eric Lau x Tawiah – “Love Call” (EP)
Yep. Small talk is over. Time to put in for the “Love Call.” The EP from Eric Lau and Tawiah is out and available for you now.
DJ Neil Armstrong – “Mi Cheri Amour” (Remix)
DJ Neil Armstrong putting some Hip-Hop sense and sensibility to Stevie Wonder‘s hit “My Cheri Amour.†Listen. Hear that? That’s “The Bridge” from MC Shan in there. And hear that drop in after that? That’s “Grindin†from The Clipse in there, too. With Steveland’s classic track playing all along. Blend-ing (say it like Pharrell would…no one will blame you)!
“In honor of Stevie Wonder, from the mixtape Bittersweeet.”
– DJ Neil Armstrong

R&B divas Meelah (formerly of 702) is giving us a good look at her solo music flight (and that body so right – whew). On this “Give It To You†single, she features Musiq Soulchild (father of her four year old son Zac). Good move. Good chemistry. Good track. Give it a good listen.

R&B: Mack Wilds – “Remember The Time” (Video)
On his debut album, “New York: A Love Story,” Staten Island, New York native Mack Wilds has a remake of a Michael Jackson classic, “Remember The Time†(produced by Havoc, of Mobb Deep, and Salaam Remi). Mack is a bad-mutha-shut-yo-mouf…but bad enough to touch the King of Pop’s track? See for yourself.
Chris Brown feat. The L.O.X. – “Loyal” (Tedsmooth Remix)
DJ & producer Tedsmooth has been killin’ it with his 90s influenced remixes over the past year or more. This time around he borrows from Biggie’s hip hop classic ‘I Got A Story To Tell’ & brings along Jadakiss, Styles P, & Sheek Louch to lay some lyrics to the joint. This is nothing short of dope!

R&B/Soul: Chrisette Michele – “Love In The Afternoon” featuring Nello Luchi (Produced By Musiq) [Video]
Two things we know you’ll love about this “Love In The Afternoon” video: Chrisette and more Chrisette. The Konee Rok-directed visuals have her going through some MJ-Black-Or-White type changes, getting more and more sexy and the eyes getting more ‘bedroomy’ as the song progresses. Like she sings, ‘Let her have her way’ with you in the afternoon. You won’t be disappointed. Oh yeah, Musiq is good with the track, and the flows by Nello Luchi…nice. But watch for nothing but hot Chrisette Michele; because that’s what you’ll get. The single is off the “Aubrey Hepburn: An Audiovisual Presentation” mixtape Michele has out for the FREE.99 (linked below).

R&B: Jazmine Sullivan – “Dumb” feat. Meek Mill
That Philly girl Jazmine Sullivan is back with a new single called “Dumb” & she brought another her fellow ‘City Of Brotherly Love’ spitter Meek Mill to provides some additional vocals on this joint. It’s been a minute since we heard something new from Jazmine Sullivan & this one right here works for us. There’s very few young female R&B vocalists her age (26) that have the vocal chops to SANG like she does. After what was a 3-year-hiatus, the Philly songstress rocked a sold-out performance in London recently & is geared up to perform during the Essence Festival’s 20th Anniversary between July 3-6th in New Orleans. Don’t be ‘Dumb’…go ahead & peep her movements on her website below & press play to hear this new jawn!
