Guilty Pleasures...

I love me some pop. I'm not going to even lie about that. I have my favourite pop artists too. They're more to the soul side of pop, to be sure, but they're definitely pop - or RnB? I get confused where one ends and another begins most of the time.

I will post some of my all time favourite pop-style RnB songs in a little minute. But I thought I should mention that Ledisi's new album 'Pieces of Me' just came out (in the US - as if we ever get anything on time... bitter). I'm super pumped to hear it - but ZOMG, the video for the first single is beyond cheese! I love me some Ledisi, but this is some next-level ish that had me embarrassed to watch it, quite frankly. Ugh. You'll see.



Back to awesome pop RnB! I'm dancing around my living room right now! (If only in my mind) The actual lyrics to this song are somewhat disturbing... I can imagine a 1950's housewife singing these kind of lyrics, but not really applicable to life in 2011. But how infectious is it?!


I love this a capella version of Jazmine Sullivan's 'Love You Long Time'! Why she didn't put this track out as the lead single, I will never know. It's so much better than 'Holding You Down' or whatever.



Anyway. On another note. I saw Bridesmaid's the other day, so I'm in the mood to listen to this song, and maybe act out all the lyrics. Happy HUMP DAY!
