review for Promo Only: Dance Radio February 2010!! Happy birthday to my

Time: 12:00 AM
1.
I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha
4.0 ratings (if a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already.
If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much REALLY LOVE it as it’s considered
“mindblowin’” when I hear it) so any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0
rating.
To tha artist/producer: Don’t get catchy feelin’s
if I don’t like a song on a first listen. Things could change in tha future as
I could love it, so you neva know!

01.
AnnaGrace “Love Keeps Calling (Radio Mix)”
This
iz gr8! I feel addicted to it at times, ya dig! Originally, I thought it was
just a typical mainstream Dance song by how it was. But, it just seems betta
than that. I don’t know why PO put a “content
warning” on it; don’t hear anything dirty… Tha beat iz REAL hot (once again)
and you KNOW how AG does it wit tha songs! My
Current Rating: 4.3
02.
Selena Gomez & The Scene “Naturally (Dave Audé Radio Edit)”
Only
Song #2 but I feel that THIS IZ HUGE!!! It HAS
ta be tha HIGHEST rated song on this CD for me!! I IC’d it within 10 seconds of
listening to it thanx to tha HOT beat and tha HOT vocals too!! It’s a HM
(signed to Hollywood Records [Miley Cyrus label]) and she’s only 17 but it
sounds like a Dance song to me; gotta luv it!! Tha lyrics sound gr8 and tha
chorus iz DEFINITELY hot; you KNOW it’s somethin’ when there’s elements
(“lightning”) in a song!! REAL GR8 job, DA, for tha beat!! My Current Rating: 4.8
03.
Alex Sayz Feat. Evi “Hate To Love (Original Radio Edit)”
All
these songs DEFINITELY had a HOT 2nd ½ of January wit me so far!!
This iz DEFINITELY anotha good mainstream Dance song; deserves more
recognition! I hope MCD FINALLY kills
“SOM” and replaces it wit this song!! I heard dat Evi left Lasgo? Iz that true?
I think she’s doin’ her own thing now… Cool beat (especially before tha chorus)
and Evi makes tha lyrics come to life!! My
Current Rating: 3.9
04.
Taio Cruz Feat. Ludacris “Break Your Heart (Wideboys Radio Edit)”
I
heard tha original on MCM (Music Choice Mixtape)
and it was good for an original but I didn’t IC it. Maybe this mix’ll do?
>>> A lil’ dry on tha start; hope tha beat and err-thang picks up. It
sounds pretty good before tha chorus so thumbs up. Tha chorus also sounds
pretty good too wit tha WB beat. Although I like this as a mix a lil’, I kinda
think it’s just okay. I don’t think it’ll be that big of a playlist song for me
if it gets released or whateva. Ludacris sounded good for this (as it was tha
remix that had him originally). My Rating:
3.6
05.
Kim Sozzi “Secret Love (Stellar Project Radio Edit)”
SMH
@ them not listin’ tha mix. :td I look at tha stats (3:05 and 128 BPM) and I
found it ta be tha Stellar Project Radio
Edit (thanx iPR for gettin’ it but SMH @ MCD for just labelin’ it as
“Remix”). I bought tha JH mix and it was good for a start but this mix gives it
a nice flava and iz a lil’ faster! Keep tha HOT songs comin’, Kim! Definitely
likin’ tha chorus on this one; good comeback for SP!! My Current Rating: 4.4
06.
Rihanna Feat. Jump Smokers “Hard (Jump Smokers Clean Radio Edit)”
Shit…
This iz Dance sources dickriding at its finest!! Just ‘cause Rihanna’s rappin’
on this song DOESN’T mean dat y’all had ta remix it?? And JS ain’t really Dance
to me! They’re even rappin’ on this instead of Young Jeezy, lol. Even though
this iz pure shit (SMH @ its 116 slow-ass BPM), I’m gonna prolly add it to my
playlist for a good laugh ‘cause she just makes me lol. SMH @ this (Jody Den
Broeder mix) bein’ iPR’s #1 song on their playlist currently; why so fast? I
feel like tha P stands for “Pop” now wit them. :roll: Tha JS sounded random
rappin’ on this; feels like they LUV this song ta death or somethin’, lol!!
Even Rihanna’s “where ___ at” parts are SO cheesy too (especially how she says
‘em)! My Current Rating: 2.3
07.
Cascada “Fever (Radio Edit)”
ROFL @ tha content warning! :rofl “Who tha fuck needs V.I.P.?” Hot ear-catcher!! Tha beat DEFINITELY sounds hot here; has a lil’ “ETDF” feel and people’ll DEFINITELY catch a “fever” listenin’ ta this ‘cause of how hot it iz!! I know Pop stations’ll get this too! Glad “ETDF” really blew up on them too! My Current Rating: 4.3

Flanders “Time (Vincenzo Callea Radio Mix)”
Keepin’
tha hot released songs comin’!! PO was on
point for grabbin’ these all for Feb quickly! I like this much betta than
“Behind” (maybe not on 1st listen but overall); still feelin’ tha
slow beat in tha verses! I like tha chorus and tha beat ta this one; good job, Flanders! My
Current Rating: 4.2
09.
Jennifer Lopez “Louboutins (Jody Den Broeder & Warren Rigg Radio Edit)”
Needed
ta have a remix ta this song! Tha original version kinda faded too fast when I
got it last month (and J-Lo said it was ‘pose ta be a big song, lol).
DEFINITELY lookin’ forward ta this remix; hope it’s HOT!! >>> Sounded
like a different mix but I heard tha WR-type start after like 15 seconds (tha
quiet part before tha verse came on). I don’t know about tha random keyboard in
tha song; prolly could’ve had TM team up wit WR instead of JDB ‘cause I think
JDB’s sounds ain’t makin’ it tha catchiest here. Tha interlude kinda seemed
long (wit tha “walk it out”). Will MCD pick this up after how much they
dickrided her other songs in ’07? My
Rating: 3.5
10.
BT Feat. Christian Burns “Suddenly (Cicada 7” Mix)”
Interestin’
ta see a new Cicada mix. I didn’t get ta hear tha original version yet though
so let’s see how this iz. I saw it on MCD last night. >>> Not bad for
a start; wanna hear more in tha beat. Okay, tha chorus sounds a lil’ better; at
a peak here for tha song. Pretty good chorus but I don’t know if this’ll be
better than tha original when I hear tha original. It sounds like it’ll be a
good Dance song but this mix ain’t really nothin’… My Rating: 3.2
½time: Lookin’ gr8 here!! Of
course, a lot of tha songs I knew already had GR8 ratings!! Tha newbies didn’t
turn out too gr8 so I hope tha 2nd ½ pulls off! Tha average CD
rating currently iz 3.9; not bad.
11.
Fawni “Serious (Soul Junkie Radio Edit)”
LMFAO!!
Where was PO a year ago? :? This was added on
MCD December 31, 2008 and it was already out online a while before that… It
made #21 on my YEC of 2009 (prolly Top 10 for Dance songs) wit whopping amount
of spins!! I HOPE this iz a good mix ta revive tha song!! I don’t know what ta
anticipate… >>> Cool intro here… I smell new life wit this song! I
don’t know about tha part that’s dubbin’ after tha 1st verse. It
even went into tha 2nd verse right after that… Boo @ 1:07 where they
tricked me, makin’ me think tha chorus was there but it started dubbin’ again.
:( Not likin’ that this sounds like a dub. FINALLY, tha chorus @ 1:52!! Cool
beat once again… Damn, only one chorus? YUCK!! A bunch of negatives came outta
this for me while there were positives… My
Rating: 3.8
12.
Kaskade & Seamus Haji Feat. Haley “So Far Away (Kaskade Radio Edit)”
I
smell a mainstream Dance song here!! Only heard it once on MCD and you know
it’s catchy! Lemme hear it again on this review! >>> Tha intro sounds
hot. I like tha way Kaskade has tha mix goin’ on here. Wow, tha chorus
DEFINITELY sounds hot; good shit here!! Tha lyrics are definitely catchy; “got
an hour ta kill.” That’s how I feel right now wit this review, lol. Prolly got
an hour left ‘til tha review ends. I’m gonna really look forward ta playin’
this; glad PO did their thang wit grabbin’ a
good mix!! My Rating: 4.3
13.
Irene Nelson “Sunrise
(Chew Fu Wasabi Radio Fix)”
Iz
that an error? Iz it really “Radio Fix”
(EDIT: Yes, it iz)? I like tha
artist name so I HOPE this iz GR8 and
not SHITTY like dat Rihanna “Russian Roulette” mix from tha last CD!!!
>>> Okay, tha start sounds hot here; glad I ain’t complainin’ already.
I hear tha vocals and it almost sounds like a sample but it’s good! Tha vocals
are pretty catchy durin’ tha 1st verse here; interestin’ song here. Sounds
like an accent on tha 2nd verse; this once again iz catchy! Thumbs
up ta tha remixer doin’ it. My Rating: 4.4
14.
Damien S Feat. Femke “Stars Collide (Timothy Allen Remix Edit)”
Talk
about HOTNESS!!! Glad PO discovered this song
and motivated me ta play it in 2010 as well as tha end of ’09!! MCD has it in
late night rotation but it sounds like a HOT late night song! Almost reminds me
of Vocal Trance here (on tha slower side). Tha music DEFINITELY has a mood and
those vocals are REAL gr8 for this!! I wish more would happen wit tha music but
it’s hot after tha verses! Tha lyrics DEFINITELY are on point here!! Tha part
at 3:01 iz REAL HOT for this song and tha music a few seconds after as well!! My Current Rating: 4.5
15.
Myah Marie “Chemistry (Radio Edit)”
This
PO ‘bout ta get REAL anticipating!!! Known for
“Everything” wit RR & DS, let’s see how she does it, Next Plateau style!!
REAL HIGH AL here!!! >>> Sounds like they produced it based off tha
beginning; it has that HOT “Everything” type beat and even tha sound on tha
verse has that feel too! Good job on tha vocals here and tha song has me
interested here! Tha chorus iz hot; catchy lyrics here for anotha future Dance
song! Hope people pay attention for this like they did for “Everything”! My Rating: 4.2
16.
Birdman Feat. Drake & Lil’ Wayne
“Money To Blow (Mike Rizzo Clean Radio Edit)”
LOL,
for tha 2nd time on PO, not only
was tha highest BPM 133 but it was a Rap song (or Rap song remixed); weird! And
who would’ve guessed this song would be remixed? Louisiana has entered tha Dance world, ROFL
(even though I don’t consider them LA artists ‘cause they don’t have tha LA
sound)!! Knowin’ my mainstream tastes, I didn’t come close to IC’ing tha
original version but wit MR doin’ tha mix, it’ll prolly be an instant; let’s see!!
>>> LOL, this iz hella cool/unexpected!!! Tha 1st verse iz
Drake. I like Drake but neva IC’d any of his songs… I know no one will get
this; I’ll laugh if anyone gets it, lol. But yea, he sounds good on this mix. Of
course, who doesn’t like a song about havin’ buku “money?” As for Birdman on
tha 2nd verse, he sounds like talkin’ than rappin’ ‘cause of how
slow his flow iz. Now Wayne
iz pretty catchy for his part on tha 3rd verse for this. Glad Drake
made it a catchy chorus too. My Rating: 4.0
17.
Laidback Luke & Gregor Salto Feat. Mavis Acquah “Step By Step (Big Room
Radio Edit)”
Saw
PFM get this song and it’s on their playlist; I wonder what it gon be about…
>>> I hear tha vocals and it’s good; mainstream Dance sound. It sounds
good when tha chorus comes in; lookin’ hot here. Pretty hot PFM song here; they
random when it comes ta pickin’ up a hot Dance song! Tha chorus iz remindin’ me
of older Dance music when songs like these would just become anthems outta
nowhere. My Rating: 4.1
18.
Kilo Feat. Funk Generation “What I See (Funk Generation Radio Edit)”
I
see LOTS of AL
for this one!!! You KNOW if it’s MR and it’s Next Plateau on tha label, it
should be REAL, REAL HOT!!!!! >>> It’s male vocals; unexpected here. LOL
@ tha chorus part (I think that’s what it iz); almost reminds me of Reggae
vocals. Interesting song but I don’t know how much I’ll like it from my AL. Tha rest of tha song
iz pretty much what I said before… Either this’ll get out there on MCD or get
totally ignored. My Rating: 3.6
19.
Livvi Franc “Automatik (Smash Mode Radio)”
“NITB”
was an okay song for what it was. This song however iz DEFINITELY HOT!!! I like
this one better and tha original version has it goin’ on!!! iPR picked up a
Wideboys Stadium Edit so let’s see what this mix’ll be like; I have AL for it!! >>>
ALWAYS tha hot music from SM; on tha slow side again for their remixes. She
DEFINITELY sounds hot on this beat though; likin’ tha lyrics a whole lot for
this song!! I really like tha 2nd verse wit tha “body robe” and
“fightin’ battles I could neva win” part! I also like tha bridge wit tha “pull
on me like—like a magnet” part (rhymin’ wit tha title)! :tu Even some nice
dubbin’ in this too! I definitely like tha original version betta. This mix may
be good but I’ll stick wit my Wideboys mix although it sounds like Miley’s
“Party In The U.S.A.” mix they did. My
Rating: 4.3
20.
Chris “The Greek” Panaghi Feat. Laylah “I Wanna Feel The Music (Chris “The
Greek” Panaghi Radio Mix)”
Forgot
what this one was for a second… I like Laylah and her “Outta Control” song from
two POs ago. I think this’ll be anotha hot song from her, especially since
she’s teamin’ up wit C”TG”!! >>> Once again, just like Kelita, she’s
DEFINITELY hot wit tha vocals and how she delivers ‘em! ;) This one sounds more
quiet in tha beat than tha “Outta Control” song. At around :46 where she says,
“tha music,” tha sound effect sounded EXACTLY like she says tha intro in “OC.” This
iz like ¾’s of a minute longer than “OC” so basically, it was just like an
extra chorus was added, lol. Actually, my prediction was wrong ‘cause I hear a
bridge; there might be an interlude though. You know I like this but tha beat
should’ve been more upbeat like “I Like To Feel The Beat.” My Rating: 3.7
21.
Calvin Harris Feat. Ayah Marar “Flashback (Radio Edit)”
LOL,
time ta talk about him: My college station that I DJ at (known for Rock and
some Electronic music; I play my own undaground Louisiana Rap music) added
“Ready For The Weekend” (11/09 PO) onto their
“current” rotation. I LOL’d @ it when I saw it on their website and when I
stepped into tha radio station, I heard one of tha DJ’s play it and talk about
him. They said they had anotha song of his in rotation too, lol. For this song,
I didn’t really IC it when I first heard it but I think I gon get amped for it
‘cause I had “flashbacks” of my boy Nu$$ie (from Louisiana) who got murdered a year ago at
this time (‘cause I was puttin’ my 2009 YEC on YT). Lemme hear. >>>
Tha intro iz like LOL in tha beginning ‘cause it’s like his “RFTW” “end” vocal.
It sounds cool wit tha beat in tha beginning and tha lyrics are good, I guess.
Tha beat kinda startin’ ta get dry… I thought it sounded hotter but it’s still
pretty good. Tha chorus iz good; who’s tha random female? Catchy song; I think
I gon add it finally. My Current Rating:
3.8
Overall: I thought this was a cool
CD. Some of my high AL’s
let me down a lil’ but it paid off. I liked a bunch of songs off this CD and I
see a lot of future songs on my playlist!
