R&B: John West – Nobody (Video)
May 30, 2012
I’ve been high on this R&B record for months by John West. It seems like his label is finally pushing for this single to be heard & now SEEN by more people. It’s too much of a dope R&B joint to let slip away from people knowing about it.

R&B/Soul: John West – “Nobody”
March 18, 2012
L.A. based singer John West has been coming with some quality songs with each release but the leaks haven’t been too abundant or frequent. I was enjoying the “Lovely” joint with Pusha T that he put out in March of last year around this time & here he comes again with another quality joint called “Nobody”. Great work. I’m even more looking forward to his upcoming album to be released on Mercury/Island Def Jam. I usually can tell if I dig a song if I played it more that 2 or 3 times in a row. This was one of those types of songs….

When this song first dropped back in March I was worried that such a good song was gonna get lost in the never ending shuffle of music that gets released in the course of a year. I used to have this “Lovely” song on repeat in my itunes playlists & it’s good to see they didn’t just let this song die without a good video to breath new life into it.
R&B/Soul: John West – ‘Lovely’ feat. Pusha T

One of my friends swears that I’ve seen John West perform while I was in L.A. on a visit but I can’t honestly remember. I gave her the ‘Oh ok’ acknowledgement, but I didn’t have much of a clue. I’ve seen a gazillion new artists perform in my lifetime. Apparently John West has been around for a while having been in rock bands & is now a solo artist signed to Island/Def Jam. I didn’t expect much when I came across this song in my email except for the fact that this song ‘Lovely’ was featuring Pusha T. I’m glad I checked this out because this joint is hot! John West seems like a mix between John Legend & Robin Thicke & I wouldn’t be surprised if the label was trying to push him into that ‘blue eyed soul’ lane. The positive side is John West doesn’t sound like anyone else in R&B/Soul today vocally speaking. This particular song reminds me of Kanye West’s ‘Heard Em Say’ from a musical perspective so I wonder if Yeezy had something to do with the collaboration in some way…..
