Missy Elliott

By jboogie@thethomascrownchronicles.com (J Boogie) ‘Meltdown’ – the first single from the album, featuring guest vocals from Gwen Stefani and old-time collaborator Justin Timberlake is a typical Timbaland club-stomper, with thumping chorus in which Justin and Gwen invite one another to ‘melt down; all the way’.

By jboogie@thethomascrownchronicles.com (J Boogie) Now let's look 4 years before Under Construction in 1998 when an artist named Cat Power was recording her incredible 4th album Moon Pix across the world, in Melbourne, Australia. With the lunar theme in mind, Cat Power and her teams wrote 1/2 the album in just one night. One track that caught m...

By jboogie@thethomascrownchronicles.com (J Boogie) Despite the slow news in the Missy Elliott world, head over to our friends at Missy Watch and listen to the demo T-Pain and an unnamed MC did for Missy. Track is HOT! Sadly though it's not produced by Timbo but it's definitely the best would be Missy track I've heard in a long time.

By noreply@blogger.com (Czar) For me, second only to Missy Elliott, the late-great Static (I still feel so weird saying that) has to have been one of the greatest r&b songwriters to team up with Timbaland on a consistent basis. The music that they created together was and is unparalleled. Like Tim and Missy, Static an...

By jboogie@thethomascrownchronicles.com (J Boogie) Ciara said about the track "I really want to embrace the world and the culture of vouging with this song. It's saying 'when you hit the dance floor, you better work! You better show it off" and she has. The track sounds like a D-list gay anthem throwaway beat. Sorry Danja it's not your best work an...

By noreply@blogger.com (J Boogie) Following the same route every artist does these days, Keri Hilson and Missy Elliott have had their albums pushed back. Keri's has only been pushed back a couple week until October 7th. No word as to why but I'm sure Keri wants to make sure a solid, debut album with all the fixins is ready for us.
