Purchase Above The Clouds CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Norah Jones Fall CD (2009)
Above The Clouds album
$15.05 With The Fall, Norah Jones completes the transition away from her smooth cabaret beginnings and toward a mellowly arty, modern singer/songwriter. Jones began this shift on 2007's Not Too Late, an album that gently rejected her tendencies for lulling, tasteful crooning, but The Fall is a stronger, more cohesive work, maintaining an elegantly dreamy state that's ...

SOME NOTES ON THE MUSICThe Francis Suite is a four movement suite written for my family:TINY'S CRIB refers to my father Russell. He was so tiny as a baby, his father used to carry him around in his coat pocket. He was a laid-back, gentle man who had an enormous influence on me. THE SISTERHOOD is for my three sisters Penny, Rhonda, and my twin sister Jennifer. I learned some valuable lessons from them growing up. Since our mother's passing, Penny has become the matriarch of the family, and what an excellent job she's doing! LAST OF THE SOUL BROTHERS refers to my brothers Carleton and Michael. They grew up with the 70's with Soul music, 8-track tapes, and yes...velvet paintings! FRANCIS was the first piece I wrote in the suite, dedicated to my mother Kay Francis. She worked tirelessly her entire life to provide for all of us. And through her education and activism, she taught us how to survive and make the most out of life. __My arrangement of YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE is dedicated to the love of my life, Stacey! Without her support and inspiration, ...

| | Shawty Lo Units In The City CD (2007) Edited
Above The Clouds album
$15.65 With his 2008 debut, UNITS IN THE CITY, Shawty Lo (aka Carlos Walker), a member of Atlanta's D4L crew, steps out on his own, offering up a solid set of hard-hitting Southern hip-hop. While CITY's clear highlight is the infectious club anthem "Dey Know," other tracks, most notably the keyboard-heavy "Feels Good to Be Here," reveal that Shawty is a charismatic, easy-flowing rapper who has the talent to stay in the game for a long time.
As the man behind Atlanta's D4L crew and their lightweight party hits "Laffy Taffy" and "Betcha Can't Do It Like Me," Shawty Lo gets no respect from hip-hop purists. To them, a solo album from a hype man/label boss who reluctantly took up rapping two years prior is pointless. They're right, and doubly so when they call Lo's "slow-flow" style "limited," but Units in the City is certainly an entertaining and well-balanced effort, equally stocked with hooks and clichés. With one of the breathiest deliveries in hip-hop, Shawty rattles off numerous "dope boy money" and "brown paper bag" stories over ...
