Kick-Ass Songs for January




Whataya Want From Me (Adam Lambert) - Yeah, wail with me! Almost a year after, we’re still reeling from his loss. In hindsight, it was the biggest rip-off in American Idol history. But as true talent could never be written off, guess what? Adam Lambert, with his fliratatious grin, is having the last laugh! As if having undergone a cool metamorphosis, Mr. Lambert is now bolder, savvier and gayer! Proof: listen to his album, For Your Entertainment! A well-crafted, deliciously-detailed, edgy pop-rock album, Mr. Lambert’s talent gloriously shines in every track that immensely pales in comparison to Idol winners. Whataya Want From Me, the album’s second track, is a pop-rock song extraordinaire. The emotions’ Adam had mustered for the song are accessibly raw, the belting, just pure brilliance. Straightforward and just a perfect vibe of rock, Mr. Lambert’s Whataya Want From Me is a proof that he’s here for our entertainment!





Future Love (Kristinia Debarge) - If you’re the child of a famous popstar, the pressure to succeed is always high. Thankfully, Kristinia Debarge knows the name of the game and is slowly carving out her musical niche. Sassy and with just the right amount of sexuality, Future Love, co-written by the “sassy recycler” Ryan Tedder, is a feel-good pop-anthem minus the pop cruminess. From her debut album Exposed, a collaboration with Ryan Tedder, Babyface, and Tynisha Keli, Future Love is reminiscent of Timbaland-style musical punch: always worthy on the dancefloor!. It is hip and edgy and with a famous proverbial last name, Ms. Debarge is set to conquer the pop world and she has the opening act for Britney Spears this fall to kick it off!





Crawl (Chris Brown) – Surely, our biased image of Chris Brown will be that of a deplorable hooligan, a beast having tormented a fragile princess. An eventful twists of drama, the Rihanna-Chris Brown entanglement was an omnipresent fodder. And guess who’s taking its toll? The talented Mr. Brown. His latest album, Graffiti (for real: what’s with the revolting cover?), charted at disappointingly number 55 on Billboard Hot 200 and was heavily panned by critics. A saving grace, his latest track, Crawl, is a winner, though!. Emotional, candid and heart-wrenching, Crawl provides an avenue to showcase Mr. Brown’s vulnerability and humanity. Underneath that veneer of thug coolness, after all, is a softness suscepibility. Talk about taming of the shrew!
