Soulful 22-year-old Obehi is being tipped all over the internet as the next big thing for R&B this year.
Nigerian-born and raised in Glasgow, the pretty young songstress offers a refreshing alternative to some of the wild, in-your-face artists around at the moment. Quite frankly, it’s just nice to see a female artist who doesn’t use sex appeal to flog her music.
‘Everything’ is the debut EP from Obehi; three tracks that all differ in their own special ways but all of which boast Obehi’s sugary sweet vocals throughout.
Lead track ‘Everything’ mixes piano-tinkering verses with a modern R&B beat and no one can argue with a love song that makes you want to dance.
On ‘For You’, Obehi’s voice is sassy but still as sweet as before. The vocals are layered across the sort of ice cool Timberlake-esque sound which sounds too good for just any old dance floor.
‘Don’t Come Home to me’ has all the attitude and attraction reminiscent of 90s queens of R&B, TLC, with its addictive chorus:” Don’t come home to me/ And kiss me on the cheek.”
This EP is a good effort from a very talented singer, but is this really the time for R&B? As previously mentioned, there are so many outlandish artists out there, a naturally talented artist like Obehi is going to have to work extra hard to get herself noticed in the wilderness of the music world.
A MAN'S THOUGHTS is the 6th album from American R&B artist Ginuwine and sees him taking on a plethora of challenging issues facing modern man such as; Who is fitter Danni Minogue or Sheryl Cole? What's best down the pub, pork scratchings or chilli nuts? And am I a bad person if I fancy my girlfriends mum? Ok I'm just teasing, this is a collection of 14 silky smooth jams that allow Ginuwine, a man, to elucidate his thoughts on relationships, love, and how hard it can be to be in love and in a relationship.
The album commences with Ginuwine thanking his fans personally for 13 years of support with sounds of crowd adulation in the background, a nice thought, but a brief mention in the album liner notes would have sufficed.
