Fly Song of the Week: Musiq Soulchild's 'So Beautiful'

Musiq Soulchild is back. “So Beautiful” makes me feel some kinda way when I hear it. His vocal arrangement and falsetto makes this song a winner.

Take a listen to hear and feel for yourself.

Fly Song of the Week: Q-Tip's 'We Fight/We Love' featuring Raphael Saadiq

I know Q-Tip is 15- years my senior but it makes no difference! I am in love with him, yea, I know I said I loved Jay-Z last week but my love affairs change with my mood!

The Fly Song of the week is from my man the abstract one. “We Love/We Fight featuring Raphael Saadiq” is from Q-Tip’s just released album, The Renaissance. If you’re upset with what’s playing on the radio, then pick up this album for some true hip-hop, with features from Norah Jones, Amanda Diva and D’Angelo, this album enlightens you with social issues and love songs and grooves like a summer night.

Fly Song of the Week: "I'm Cool" by Anthony Hamilton featuring David Banner

Hopefully, this tracks means that Anthony Hamilton is back! “I’m Cool” is just what the radio needs, a smooth, soulful R&B track. I could do without David Banner though.

Fly Song of the Week: "Can't Find the Words" by Karina

Karina is a fly girl. Signed to Def Jam at 16, she is already being compared to Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey and Aaliyah. With more musical moxy than most sixteen- year -olds, Karina Pasian has constructed one of the finest debut discs in years. Not to mention she worked with awesome producers such as The Dream and Tricky Stewart.

Her first single, “16 @ War” was an honest statement about the disrespect young urban girls face from their male counterparts and the lack of self love. Produced and written by Carlos McKinney, the sing-songy "Can't Find the Words" embraces elements of jazz and pop while simultaneously creating a whimsical track that sounds like nothing else of the radio. Additionally, Karina's favorite song "Winner," which highlights her elegant piano (her light touch on the keyboard reminds one of Erroll Garner) playing, is laidback and uplifting.

Her album, First Love drops today, let’s hope Def Jam gives this fresh talent the props she deserves.

“Can’t Find the Words” is playing right now.

Fly Song of the Week: "Curtain Call" by Nina Sky featuring Rick Ross

I like Nina Sky, every time they drop a single on a mixtape or on their forever pushed back second album, The Musical, I always love it. They come off as down-to-earth, around the way girls, which is comforting in industry filled with pre-packaged sugar cookie artists who only pretend to be good girls gone bad.

Hopefully, “Curtain Call” brings the singing sisters back in the spotlight, the song is real chill and the Boss Rick Ross brings the street cred to single.

It’s playing right now! Check out Nina Sky’s myspace here: www.myspace.com/ninasky
