January 28, 200719 yr Agree- there hasnt been much at all, theres been a lot of indie dirge though :( Its not only urban suffering. Pop and dance are also rare.
January 28, 200719 yr I'm so getting it :D Glad that managed to persuade you, I was already buying the album anyway no matter what reviews it recieved. :D I'm not sure I like them calling Klaxons 'pop,' though, however they are popular so I suppose it does make sense. :D
January 28, 200719 yr Well whatever The Fray's style of music is I don't like it If it aint R&B/Hip-Hop/Soul/Dance/Pop, I ain't gonna like it :lol: :lol: :lol:

January 28, 200719 yr 11 (from 16) Akon feat. Snoop Dogg - I Wanna Love You http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/PREAKONVICTED.JPG Chart Run: 56-35-16-11 After winning music fans over with his 2003 multi-platinum debut 'Trouble', Senegalese singer Akon returns with more stories from his personal journey via his sophomore CD 'Konvicted'. If 'Trouble' was Akon's ode to redemption (before his music career took off he served time for car theft), 'Konvicted' picks up at rebirth. His mission now is to reinvent himself through his salvation - music. Although the hit single 'Locked Up' earned him street credibility, the artists multifaceted sensibilities are evident on his second album. Akon produced and wrote all but one song on 'Konvicted'. 'Konvicted' balances streetwise swagger, studio originality and common sense to create one of the most honest releases of 2006. 'Smack That', is a deliriously energetic song that has all the ingredients of a masterful club banger and features the aggressive rhymes of eight-mile wordsmith Eminem. Another stand-out song is the anti-gangsta track 'Tired Of Runnin'. Recalling the sincerity of soul legend Curtis Mayfield's timeless 'Super Fly' soundtrack, Akon neo-blues recalls the struggle of stepping away from the game. Working in the tradition of pioneer R. Kelly, Akon moves deftly from hard-knock stories to the dance-floor to inspirational ballads; the verses are full of nimble sing-rappingwith Akon multi-tracking his voice to sing his own backing vocals on the song 'Gangsta Bop'. He proves to be innovative on a production level as well. Unafraid of lacing pop music elements like live piano and the zigzag of violins, the haunting ballad 'Never Took the Time' is a winner. The crowning jewel on 'Konvicted' is the powerful 'Africa', a percussion heavy anthem dedicated to his homeland. - HMV Video here: u_VfK9DChJA
January 28, 200719 yr Lovin' this track :D Why does Snoop have to be on it though, really don't like him :angry:
January 28, 200719 yr The censored title is just nonsensical, you don't want to love someone unless you have a problem in teh way with them, Akon does not have a problem with her so if he wants to love her so much why doesn't he just love her? :smoke: It was so much easier with I Wanna F*ck You :kink:
January 28, 200719 yr Its not only urban suffering. Pop and dance are also rare. I agree, the lack of proper Dance music makes me sad :cry: The only dance appearing is crappy remixes and covers of songs where the artist is only in it for the money :(
January 28, 200719 yr Hmmmm. There seems to be a lot of guitars in 2007! Was many in 2006. Let's hope 2007 is the come back of Dance. Going okay so far.
January 28, 200719 yr Klaxons album is really great, but it's not the most amazing thing ever. :| The brilliant thing with Klaxons is they're fairly original in this century. :D They're quite similar to some of the stuff I've heard by The Prodigy actually. :)
January 28, 200719 yr Akon's music just sounds too samey and its awful, its like grinding teeth Grinding teeth has rhythm and variety :kink:
