2 fwds In Hip Hop and Soul with excellent reviews

Post by icgreen » Wed Aug 20, 2008 2:47 am

My 1st 2 submissionsDunno how to add the music so i'll fwd you my cdbaby linkwww.cdbaby.com/cd/icgreenYou can preview the songs i submitted (Part Time Stunna, Sayin OOOoooo, & Throw'Em Up)SOUL/POP/R&B ARTISTS in the wide range of Ashanti, Usher, Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, Mariah Carey, R. Kelly, Alicia Keys, etc. are wanted by a team of Mega-Producers for their new Major Label imprint. Nice submission!I recall hearing "Part Time Stunna" before. It's cool to hear more stuff. I enjoyed listening No doubt the production is polished and the tracks are there. I.C. has a great feel for melody and makes an effort to have colorful lyrics. Memorable hooks and verses. I thought there was room for the songs to have couple of surprises along the way (for example, the rap on "Throw'Em Up (A-Town Anthem)" was great). You might consider adding if you happen to do some remixes. Also think about giving the hooks even more punch and pay off. I.C. has a really nice voice. On the performances, though, I thought that there was room to push further - really go for it, especially with ad-libs. Also, I think his falsetto is a highlight. He might consider showcasing that more. Overall, as an artist, I respect that he's looking to do something different. Still, my thought is that he could go even more quirky, left, alternative, etc. to set himself apart further - be more unique & distinctive with the music, songs, vocal performances and overall persona a la Andre of Outkast or Lenny Kravitz - that's all. Something to think about. With respect to the listing, even though I'd say this could be stepped up just a notch, I think there is enough here to garner further consideration. So I'm forwarding on. Keep it up and best of luck!Bio CommentsWell done. Good description of what I.C. is going for - "Touch of Outkast, a Sprinkle of the Beatles, a Dash of Lenny Kravitz, a smidgin of the 60's soul, with a kick of dirty south music, collectively called Dirty Soul Music!!!"HIP HOP/URBAN POP ARTISTS a la Will.I.Am, Fergie, Kelly Rowland, Ne-Yo, Ciara, Chris Brown, etc. are sought after by an A&R rep for a Major LabelThank you so much for this submission. Your music is great. Theres some really strong marketability behind it. The vocals are crisp and very strong. Lyrically the songs work great for the female demographic and the production is right in line with what's hot right now. Keep making these bangers and I look forward to hearing what you've got coming next.I'm excited! www.icgreenonline.comwww.myspace.com/ic ... Facebook-I. C. Green
