Here
goes my review for “Promo Only: Dance Radio April 2011”. Even though I had an
unanticipated view at tha tracklisting, first, I’m pretty anticipated, now! Start Time: 3:09 PM | End Time: 4:47 PM
Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. 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! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> “ iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> “ iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it.

01.
Adele “Rolling In The Deep (Downtown London
Remix Radio Edit)”
Liked
tha original when it first came out; didn’t think it would be big or anything.
Now, #1 on VH1, and played so much on MCD? Who would’ve thought this’d be
Dance-remixed? Even though I like tha ‘90s feel, it’s a good replacement from
tha original wit me. ROFL, it didn’t even censor “shit” (sounds like “ship”
‘til I heard it reversed on tha music video and had to google it; ROFL @ no
content warning, too). My Current
Rating: 3.8
02.
Eric Prydz Feat. Jan Burton “Niton (The Reason)”
Heard
it on MCD (thanx to this PO) and smh,
late-night song (‘cause I only heard it about two times within tha last few
weeks)? After everyone dickrided “Call On Me”? I think they better step their
game up ‘cause some of tha better, less-mainstream songs on here are in regular
rotation (“Falling”, “We Own The Night”), which iz weird for tha typical them.
Anyway, real hot beat and good comeback; these male vocals sound tight, thanx
to everything combinin’! :tu My Current
Rating: 4.5
03.
Chris Brown Feat. Benny Benassi “Beautiful People (Main Mix)”
Who
would’ve thought we’d see a collaboration like this? Back a few years ago, and
still now, it would look like “Benny Benassi Radio Edit”, but now that everyone
knows Dance artists (not sure who’s reachin’ out to who), looks like they’re
featured, lol. At first, I was like, “what tha hell,” especially wit this
weird-ass, Auto-Tuned-ass voice of his, but it’s been catchin’ on tha more
times I hear it. Also, this was tha “Jam Of The Week” on MTV Jams (urban video
channel); who would’ve guessed this would’ve happened? That’s one play every
HOUR for a week (168 plays in its 1st week); crazy! My Current Rating: 3.9
04.
DJ Mog & Paul Kennedy Feat. The Stetz “Full Circle (Chriss Ortega Radio Edit)”
First
of, I think, two artists on here that MCD would NOT STOP PLAYIN’. How long did
we have to hear “Somewhere”? :? They finally cooled down wit that song after
almost 10 months. Now that I saw them premiere this, I wanted to wait for tha
review to give my fair opinion. >>> Kinda sounds like a Rock start but
adds tha interestin’ Dance beats and somewhat-good for tha mainstream Dance
outlets. Sounds much betta wit tha chorus part; glad tha beat’s in full Dance
gear, now! Usually, I’d be a lil’ bored wit somethin’ like this but because of
this good mood this CD’s bringin’ me, I can’t dislike, right now! My Rating: 4.0
05.
Andrea Rosario “We Own The Night (Wideboys Radio Edit)”
WHAT A HUGE SONG!!!!! PURE HOTNESS TO THA
FULLEST!! SMH @ MCD for not sourcin’ tha mix; had me searchin’ and forgot it
was on here. Has to be tha strongest vocals on this CD!! Plus, tha hot-ass beat
helps, too!!! Glad I’m gettin’ to hear these songs a lot, since I have been
workin’ on a documentary all day, for tha next 10 dayz; thumbs up for MCD for
puttin’ it in regular rotation so I can hear it! My Current Rating: 4.9
06.
Diddy – Dirty Money Feat. Skylar Grey “Coming Home (Dirty South Radio Mix)”
This
iz where removin’ tha rappin’ goes wrong: First off, only tha “sleepy” 1st
chorus of tha song repeats and not tha better-soundin’ 2nd chorus of
tha original? Next, four minutes of mainly a beat? Tha beat’s cool but tha
boring level’s high. My Current Rating: 3.7
07.
Hyper Crush “Kick Us Out (Johnny Vicious Radio Edit)”
ROFL,
let’s hear tha remix! >>> Speakin’ of ‘90s, tha start sounds like a
‘90s start wit tha beat, here; good shit… I guess tha MC Mixtape got this
‘cause I remember tha “they tryna—stupid” part (which iz tha start of tha 2nd
verse shortened by tha start of tha 1st verse, lol). Sounds better
than tha original version; uh, MCD, where are you? Still playin’ tha original
version, smh? Be Dance, already,
lol! My Rating: 4.2
08.
Dave Matthias vs. Julissa Veloz “Sweet Sugar Poison (Liam Keegan Radio Edit)”
Carrillo
Music in tha buildin’, here, as well as tha P!nk “Raise Your Glass” remixer;
lookin’ forward ta hearin’! >>> Feelin’ tha moanin’ in tha beginning!
I’m likin’ tha erotic feel, here; evolved more from tha evolved-“Predator”?
Good shit, of course! This has a better beat than “Predator” although I liked
“Predator” better on a 1st listen. Even though Julissa’s a singer,
it sounds like she’s rappin’ this, lol. My
Rating: 4.0
09.
Cedric Gervais Feat. Mýa “Love Is The Answer”
>>>
LOL, Mýa
teamin’ up in tha Dance world, too? Interestin’, and this iz pretty hot for a
collaboration! This deserves ta go Pop, but you know how this fucked-up music
world iz, smh. :td Should be pretty addicting once it (hopefully) gets out
there! My Rating: 4.3
10.
Beth Ditto “I Wrote The Book”
ROFL,
forgot this was on here, too. MCE got this and when I heard tha title, I was
like, “wasn’t this on tha new PO,” and here it
iz! Anotha song on a mainstream label (Columbia,
same as Beyoncé and Magnetic Man). For tha song, nice beat for an MCE/low BPM;
tha vocals are hella catchy wit these catchy lyrics, too, which equals a
tri-combo of hotness! Saw her pics on MCE and she’s hella fat, lol!! My Current Rating: 4.3
11.
Jackie Madden “Falling (Mig & Rizzo Original Mix)”
Anotha
HUGE song!!! Not sure if I like this
better than “We Own The Night”; very close call!! Researched her while tryin’
to find this song and I believe she’s an actress; hotness!!! Of course, Mig
& Rizzo do a GR8 job solo; combined, they’re 2x better!!! MCD jumped on
this like it was nothin’, especially for lettin’ it be a regular-rotation song!
This deserves mainstream success ‘cause it’s actually tha original version of
tha song, which should be a sign! Almost sounds like Jenna Drey on tha bridge
wit those background vocals; gotta have those great invisions! My Current Rating: 4.8
½time: Tha CD’s startin’ to get really good, thanx to those really good songs toward tha end of tha
1st ½ and tha ones like Eric Prydz & Andrea Rosario! Currently,
a 4.2-rated
CD; gotta keep it up!!!
12.
Michael Jackson “Hollywood
Tonight (DJ Chuckie Radio Edit)”
SMH;
I shouldn’t leave any feedback! His death iz tha biggest dickrided thing in history!!! :td How can PO
go from a HOT actress (before I can
even get a good look at her) to a child molester? :? My Current Rating: 2.4
13.
Lady GaGa “Born This Way (Bimbo Jones Remix Radio Edit)”
>>>
At least this sounds better than tha boring Manhattan Clique mix MCD got.
Still, I like tha original version tha best, unfortunately; somebody should’ve
put their all into remixin’ this song, since it’s GaGa! ROFL, they didn’t use
tha “no matter gay, straight, or bi; lesbian, transgender…” part on tha last
chorus on tha BJ mix; unironic, lol! :rofl My
Rating: 4.1
14.
Phunk & Beat Thrillerz Feat. Katy Allen “Lose Control”
Next
Plateau signed, so I should be anticipated! >>> Didn’t think this
would sound that “Dance”; thought it would be some club banga. Hot chorus,
regardless of tha deadmau5 pattern; as long as tha beat’s strong! Tha part
right around 2:50ish sounds pretty hot wit this neva-stoppin’ beat! :tu Damn,
tha hotness of that endin’ beat just makes me wanna boost my rating even higher
than 4.2! My Rating: 4.3
15.
Jennifer Hudson “Where You At (Dave Audé Remix Radio Edit)”
Kinda
boring for a HM but it doesn’t bother me too much… Kinda reminds me a lil’ of
Disco-type shit, at times… My Current
Rating: 3.0
16.
Ron Reeser & Dan Saenz Feat. Jennifer Karr “City Of Kings”
Artist
2 of 2 dat MCD can’t stop lovin’; they’re still
playin’ “Into You” a coupla times a day and it’s over a year old, domestically!
They make that song look 1,000x bigger than “Everything”… But, I don’t mind it;
let’s see this anticipatin’ follow-up!! >>> Started off right away and
JK’s doin’ tha damn thang wit tha vocals and lyrics! Anotha great tri-combo on
this PO!! A lil’ beat added after tha chorus;
thumbs up! Gotta keep switchin’ thangz up! Damn, tha 2nd chorus
sounded like it ripped off tha 2nd chorus of “Take Over Control” wit
tha beat and havin’ a chorus instead of a verse, lol! After hearin’ tha last
chorus, it sounds a lot like “Take Over Control” so much; damn, even tha ending
beat wit tha kick-ins of tha beat! ROFL @ all this! Not a fade-out, too? Okay,
at least it didn’t copy that, lol! My
Rating: 4.2
17.
FNA “Take Me Home Tonight (Gregory Ferguson Remix)”
And
what iz this? *Checks label to be prepared* Semi-borderline mainstream label
but 133 BPM (fastest song on here)? Now, I gotta hear it for myself!
>>> Definitely a hot beat start; don’t know anything about this artist
but I guess tha “Atlantic Recordings” signin’ wit anotha label, at tha same
time, iz tha next move for Dance songs (“Hello”, “Dirty Talk”, “Freefallin’”,
“Believer” all did it). Beat’s definitely hot although gonna kinda work on
these lyrics and tha vocals are pretty-good… My Rating: 4.3
18.
iSQUARE “Hey Sexy Lady (Sultan & Ned Shepard Radio Edit)”
OMG,
MCD, you! Add this artist to tha “i” collection wit iTunes, iPods, iHomes,
etc., lol! But, tha chorus iz hella catchy but I dunno about MCD playin’ this
3, 4x a day; sounds like they wanna play it out. This also sounds like another
Pop rapper tryna have tha random singer on tha chorus and be, like,
one-hit-wonderish. If I can keep seein’ my gurl Alexia, then this can get a
further, longer-lasting plus from me. My
Current Rating: 3.9
19.
Cristian Marchi & Nari & Milani Feat. Max C “I Got You (Antillas &
Dankann Inda House Cut)”
Antillas
was known for tha Plummet remix of “Cherish The Day” seven years ago. Sadly,
this iz only 128 BPM while that was 140; hate how those dayz seem like they
could never come back! I think my AL’s
a lil’ low but we’ll see… >>> Kinda a lil’ bit of interest in tha
beginning, includin’ tha beat, but these vocals are a lil’ yucky… I guess this
iz a good sign for Ultra, overall; anotha plus for tha powerful beat. I doubt
this song would do good for me if it doesn’t get out there, so gettin’ out
there can prolly help it on my playlist. My
Rating: 3.8
20.
Milk & Sugar vs. Vaya Con Dios “Hey (Nah Neh Nah) (UK Radio Edit)”
ROFL… PO goes from havin’ a remix to a somewhat-original version? Weird… I doubt this’ll do any good… >>> I like tha plain sound, here; think they should’ve had this on tha March CD and tha WaWa version here. Sounded like WaWa did better mixin’ wit tha vocals than this original version. ROFL, really got slow at 1:27! :rofl Can’t think of what that reminded me of, but I liked it, for a joke, lol. My Rating: 4.3

Joe Zangie “You Remind Me (Mig & Rizzo Radio Edit)”
ROFL @ tha content warning (“hittin’ love” but not “shit” from “Rolling In The Deep” :?). MCD had this for two months and I’ve been wantin’ to get it; luckily, I found it on YouTube (tha music video). Tha same label dat signed Wendy’s “Turn It Up” from tha August ’10 PO (also mixed by M&R); surprised that song didn’t go anywhere but this jumped out there so fast! Very hot song wit tha hot beat and tha vocals sound catchy for a good song for a relationship! My Current Rating: 4.4

Rock Mafia “The Big Bang (Smash Mode Radio Edit)”
Ending
it wit tha latest producers for Miley Cyrus? They have their own song and
label? Because of SM, I think I’ll have some anticipation for this really-short
song! >>> Feelin’ tha start, here! Why iz this chorus soundin’
familiar? Damn, can’t think of what song/show/area it came from! But, I’m likin’
tha catchiness, here; interestin’ shit, especially wit SM on tha mix! Lyrics
are really familiar toward 1:40, too; damn… My Rating: 4.4
Overall: I think this was a very
hot PO; lots of HMs but tha Dance songs were
really hot!!
