Here goes my review for Promo Only: Dance Radio May 2010! Since
this iz tha May edition, I wanna say HAPPY BIRTHDAY ta me doin’ tha PO reviewz!! It’s now four years!! Start Time: 10:56 AM | End
Time: 1:04 PM
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.
Tino Coury “Diary (Groove Police Radio Mix)”
I
forgot a lot about some of these songs’ labels and shit so at first, when I saw
this, I thought it was a Country song remixed wit female vocals. Then, MCD got
tha original and it has dat kinda J Brazil “Girl I’m Tryin’” feel so I was
like, “CHEE-ZY!!!” But, wit Mike Rizzo & Josh Harris (Groove Police) on tha
mix, how good will it be for a starting song? >>> This sounds MUCH
betta for a start and makes me NOT wanna know there’s an original version dat
sounds yucky! Kinda cheesy on tha lyrics at first but it takes a Dance version
ta save tha day! LOL @ tha end of tha 2nd verse; “I feel like JT
[Justin Timberlake] on dat ‘Cry Me A River’-type shit.” That’s a ROFL line fa a
song like dis fa me, lol! I didn’t think this would be edited here and there
for a random song like dis. DEFINITELY passes for a HM! :tu My Rating: 4.3
02.
David Guetta & Chris Willis Feat. Fergie & LMFAO “Gettin’ Over You”
I
thought this original version was a flop when it was released when “One Love”
came out. Then, here comes Ferg & tha LMFAO dudes makin’ it HOTTER!! Ferg
sounds REAL, REAL HOT on this (makin’ her even sound more Dance than some of
these artists today) and LMFAO sound good on tha rappin’ too! :tu MCH got this
about a week after it came out on MCD so it sounds like it’ll be anotha Dance
song on Pop stations! My favorite part iz 2:13, where Ferg sings tha Black Eyed
Peas “Boom Boom Pow” for a sec and then sounds REAL HOT @ 2:29!!! :tu My Current Rating: 4.5
03.
Reina “Just Let Go”
I
think this iz a GR8 comeback!! I do get kinda jealous wit MCD playin’ this more
than tha Mayra Verόnica “IYWF” song all of a sudden. Either way, NICE job wit
Reina doin’ her thang here wit tha HOT beat for tha ’10! :tu Sounds hot on tha
chorus and GR8 for tha Summer!! I smell a Megajam sellout!! I thought they did
a good breakdown wit tha vocals on tha lil’ bridge. My Current Rating: 4.4
04.
Kaskade Feat. Haley “Dynasty”
I
thought this song was later in tha CD but it’s here now! MCD got it yesterday
and iPR got it last week. Let’s see how they do it for tha Summer time 2010!!
>>> Soundin’ good for tha beginning; like tha title! Once again, Haley
comes through wit ANOTHA hypnotic chorus; DEFINITELY sounds HOT wit Kaskade on
it!! I thought this sounded plain at first when I heard a few seconds of it on
MCD; maybe they have a different mix? I feel like Dance music iz startin’ ta
sound a lil’ bit betta for tha mainstream!! My Rating: 4.2
05.
Kim Leoni “Emergency”
KL
FTW!!! Tha MOST AL on this CD fa me and I feel dat it’s ABOUT DAMN TIME SOMEONE
came through this year wit a 140+ BPM song!! How have tha last one be Iyaz
“Replay (Jason Nevins)” from December ‘09’s CD? :? That’s too long! There was
someone arguin’ about me yesterday from Baton Rouge
about tha Baton Rouge
music I like. They went too far wit sayin’ somethin’ about it so I said to
them, “Do you think I like dat NO ONE makes Trance music anymore? Everybody’s
on dat 128 BPM-type shit, Dance labels are signin’ NON-Dance artists/songs,
etc.” So now, I’m GLAD someone’s
keepin’ it real right chea!! DEFINITELY lookin’ forward ta this comeback!!!
>>> Gave me a Basshunter/Central Seven start and I’m DEFINITELY
feelin’ it!! LIFE came back for a second right here!!! :tu MCD BETTA get this!!
I KNOW they DON’T like fast songs fa
some reason… Like when they got tha S&H version of “What Hurts The Most”
and a Fonzerelli Mix of “Now You’re Gone.” But yea, REAL, REAL HOT music and
Kim doin’ her thang!!! DEFINITELY sounds HOT wit tha topic and I’m GLAD she
even LUVED my rappin’ back in ’07/’08 when I added her on MySpace!! :tu DEFINITELY
a PERFECT RATING ‘cause of how it sounds; THIS iz what’s missin’ in mainstream
Dance music right now!!! Robbins didn’t sign this but someone else did… My Rating: 5.0
06.
Usher Feat. will.i.am “OMG (Almighty Radio Mix)”
LOL
@ this bein’ after KL… >>> First time hearin’ this mix and it’s okay
for a start; glad there’s a mix. I guess ‘cause tha original has 130 BPM so you
KNOW Dance people had ta remix it!! Tha 2nd ½ of tha chorus sounds
good and this sounds like a GR8 HM so far!! Much betta than tha Ripper Mix on
MCD. Nice job wit tha collaboration here; this CD’s tryin’ to top tha last
one!!! My Rating: 4.2
07.
Kimberley Locke
“Strobelight (Tony Moran & Warren Rigg Radio Edit)”
Keepin’
tha HMs goin’, this was ANOTHA song dat wasn’t signed to a typical label… I
DEFINITELY look forward to this wit this mix! Speakin’ of Almighty, tha last
time KL was on PO was on tha 11/07 edition wit
“Band Of Gold” and Almighty did tha mix. Now, let’s see her in TM&WR
action!! >>> Sounds GR8 for tha intro once again; REALLY liked tha :15
- :22 part!! This gives it a NICE club vibe vs. a typical HM sound! Hearin’ tha
chorus now and it sounds GR8 wit this music; nice collaboration!! I KNOW MCD’ll get this and luv it! I just
know how they are… Tha bridge sounds good on this too; once again, thumbs up!!
We got this shit on lock fa this CD; ALL 4.0+ ratings so far!!! My Rating: 4.5
08.
Ricky J “Whatta Night (Klubjumpers Radio Mix)”
GR8
job wit tha mixers here, PO!! I didn’t know
what this song was when I saw it on tha preview here but I recall it bein’ a
MCH song. I guess this was anotha upbeat song so that’s why it was mixed here…
>>> Sounds betta on tha KL song. This doesn’t sound like KJ on tha
mix; sounds more Rhythm Dance than Dance… Now, I hear tha lyrics and it sounds
DEFINITELY on tha HM tip. LOL @ tha “screw & choppin’” it; a lil’ Rap-type
wit tha lyrics here since that was a Houston,
TX movement (screwed &
chopped). Tha chorus sounds good… But, I think this destroyed tha 4.0+ rating
consistency wit me. :( My Rating: 3.9
09.
Lauren Hildebrandt “Underneath (Josh Harris Radio Mix)”
Now
THIS iz prolly more like it!!!
DEFINITELY lookin’ forward to this comeback!! PO’s
REALLY gettin’ their Dance on now!!!
>>> “Underneath tha wrapper,” lol? I thought she said “rapper” at
first, lol. Uh no, anotha Rhythm Dance sound here… This iz more of a turn on
but can it compete wit tha last song? Sounds more like a Pop song wit no mix. I
hear tha chorus now and it sounds HOT; DEFINITELY givin’ her a plus!! Tha
bridge sounds like it’s vocalizin’ a sample or somethin’… This tha type of shit
that deserves ta go Pop! If only people had more knowledge in their brains!
Treat it as human dignity; equally!!
It doesn’t matter if you’re Dance or a Dance artist signed to a Pop label; PLAY
IT & SUPPORT IT!!! My Rating: 4.3
10.
Sidney Samson Feat. Twista “Shake That Thing (Riverside)”
Been
WANTIN’ ta add it to my playlist but no one had it online… Glad they got it here!!
Originally, was just an okay MCE Rap
song but sounds MUCH betta wit Twista’s fast-ass rhymes!! :tu I think these
kinds of collaborations over Electronic beats wit rappers should continue! It’s
like, who needs a boring beat? Gotta add elements to it! This sounds a lil’
shorter than MCE’s version. “Killin’ tha whole club like a ace of spades;”
tight rhyme right there! My Current
Rating: 4.5
½time: Statistically, this iz
tha BEST PO accordin’ to tha ratings!!! Now, there were other POs I liked betta
but this one has tha ratings THRU tha roof!!! Mega thanx to KL’s song fa
helpin’ out!! Tha average CD rating iz a NICE 4.4 right now!! Shiiid, I feel like
I’m reviewin’ my Baton Rouge
music ‘cause of how HOT this iz right now!!! ;)
11.
Iyaz “Solo (Cahill Radio Edit)”
Lemme
JINX tha Rhythm Dance thing ta come back fa this one!! Sorry but this guy’s
like a one-hit-wonder ta me wit his “Replay” song; what IZ this song??? Tell me tha mix gon make me like it… >>> Real
slow wit tha vocals here and tha beat iz ALWAYS soundin’ like their typical
beats; good shit in tha beat (as always)! PO
was smart fa this mix and MCD was dumb for tha DA mix. Yuck @ tha line, “I was
‘so high’ and now I’m ‘solo’.” Definitely feelin’ tha mix but I’m not crazy
‘bout tha song… My Rating: 3.7
12.
Paul Harris Feat. Deborah French “Sing Oh (Wideboys Miami Mix Radio Edit)”
MCD
got this and I heard it like 3x in tha same day they added it. I didn’t realize
at first dat PH was a member of Dirty Vegas. But yea, this song’s DEFINITELY
HOT wit tha HOT-ASS vocals!!! :) WB did a NICE job on tha beat here too!! LOL @
her “shake it like Beyoncé” part; catchy job wit tha whole song itself right
chea!! Really feelin’ tha 2nd verse too! Nice job here; it’s almost
3:00 in when tha 2nd verse ends. I remember it soundin’ short at
first ‘cause tha 2nd verse ends at 3:09 and tha beginning’s kinda
long. Yea, tha end just ends… My Current
Rating: 4.4
13.
Alexis Jordan “Happiness (Wideboys Radio Edit)”
LOL,
anotha mix already, yet double Wideboys back ta back… What, PO?
Tha original version wasn’t Dance enough, lol? It wasn’t a Christina Aguilera
“Ain’t No Other Man” or Justin Timberlake “SexyBack;” it actually SOUNDS Dance for it bein’ signed to
Jay-Z’s label! Now then, let’s hear Wideboys once again!! >>> I can
feel more Dance in tha beginning here and it sounds hot!! Tha vocals sound a
lil’ slower but there’s added elements! Gives me a GR8 feelin’ like Rihanna’s
“Rude Boy” mix on tha last PO. They added LOTS
of power ta this song, lol!! Sounds REAL HOT before tha chorus comes on and
then when tha chorus IZ ON!! :tu iPR
doesn’t have this song yet… Will they pick up this mix? I hope Pop stations get
more on this song! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much power added ta this mix!!! They REALLY
keepin’ dat chorus goin’ at tha end!! My
Rating: 4.8
14.
Justin Michael & Kemal “Her World Goes On”
Can
be hot for this CD… I got it a month ago (when iPR got it) but didn’t even
listen to it ‘til MCD got it; ROFL @ a “late night” song fa them. Sounds like
good vocals and a hot beat but I dunno when it’ll be a playlist add fa me. I
might just spike it (1-3 spins a playlist) for now. Tha singer sounds like
Frankie J (a Pop/R&B artist)… My Current
Rating: 4.0
15.
Maniacalm Feat. Lala “Never Forget You (DJ D Major Radio Mix)”
PO finally picked up a Red Stick Recordings song,
lol. All tha Red Stick songs usually are BIG on mainstream Dance stations but
neva make PO so this iz a 1st on
here! I think this’ll be a big one; it has a HOT feelin’ to it! I wasn’t sure
when I was gonna get this song but then again, I forgot about it bein’ on here
so now I have it! Nice job wit these vocals and this addictin’ mainstream
sound! My Current Rating: 4.4
16.
DJ Angel & Gabi Newman Feat. Alex Senna “Hanging From The Ceiling
(Sunloverz Radio Edit)”
I’m
slowly rememberin’ more about this PO… Next
Plateau signed this one! Lookin’ forward… I dunno what ta expect though!
>>> Sounds okay for a start; looks like it’ll be a House song? Okay on
tha mixin’ even though tha only song I heard from SL was “Shine On.” This
would’ve sounded betta as an Ultra song; I usually anticipate tha NP songs… My Rating: 3.4
17.
Lolene “Rich (Fake It ‘Til You Make It) (Static Revenger Mix Radio Edit)”
I
really enjoy tha original version (since it’s dedicated to those FAKE people out there) so I dunno how
good a Dance mix’ll be… >>> Sounds pretty anticipatin’ wit this STRONG
intro… LOL, just a chorus so far? No wonder why MCD—Oh, now I hear tha 1st
verse at 1:14… No wonder why MCD got tha original version; I don’t think
this’ll be on sources. I think everyone’ll get tha original version. I guess
there’s no room for tha 2nd verse, lol? Definitely sounds like a HOT
club style though! My Rating: 4.1
18.
Gaia & Luna “Give It Up”
Shit
yea!! This iz DEFINITELY what I’m talkin’ ‘bout!! Shout out ta tha YOUNGEST
Dance artists, ONLY 9 & 12 years old!!! :) There’s a music video to this
online and it looks HOT wit tha way it’s shot and everything on tha basketball
court! Good job on Robbins fa signin’ and Ago for makin’ this Gaia & Luna
project happen! VERY HOT soundin’ wit VERY HOT vocals, makin’ you think they
weren’t this young!! I luv tha whole “fire” parts and this REAL HOTNESS!! Hope
they continue ta make music!!! My
Current Rating: 4.9
19.
Mike Moreno & Alberto Gabilan Feat. Nicole Tyler “Kiss It Better (Vocal 5M
Radio Mix)”
Tha
other NP song on here… Anotha big ID so let’s see what’s up wit it!
>>> Nice 4:37 on tha length right here; betta be good! Sounds like it
for tha start! Although I don’t have much ta say right now, I think it’s still
a turn on… You know I feel ta hear a new Dance song! It sounds pretty hot at
2:52; HOT job wit tha beat in tha chorus! My
Rating: 3.8
20.
The Script “Breakeven (Mike Rizzo Radio Edit)”
Back
to tha Rhythm Dance feelin’ wit this one… Not sure of tha original but this gon
sound like a slow HM… >>> Not that much into this… Sounds like an
original production wit a remix feel but on tha Pop tip. No comment on this… My Rating: 2.6
21.
Klaas Meets Haddaway “What Is Love 2K9 (Klaas Radio Edit)”
I
didn’t know what tha ending song was for tha longest time ‘til I accidently
peeked at it… I don’t think this’ll be a good ending… >>> Same start
but let’s see this “Infinity 2008” sound, lol… Kinda like what happened wit tha
“Give Some Love” song from tha 8/08 PO, not
into their beat style. I only liked tha “Infinity 2008” and “Ride Like The
Wind” at first but that’s pretty much it. ROFL @ tha gurl vocals on this
version!! Not a good/called for ending here… My Rating: 2.9
Overall: Shit, look what tha
fuckin’ endin’ did ta tha average rating!! :( #20 made tha average rating go
from 4.3 to 4.2 and tha last song made it go from 4.2 to 4.1! :( Looks like tha
April CD won, statistically, but this one had tha best ½ time!! DEFINITELY was
feelin’ a lotta tha songs on here!! Of course, if there was a good start, then
there’s somethin’ SPECIAL in there somewhere (Kim Leoni ;))!! Hope we keep it
hot for June’s!
