 (24 Customer Reviews)
The intro of Nina Sky's self-titled debut announces twin sisters Natalie and Nicole Albino's lofty intentions to break down boundaries of style, incorporating varied sounds from R&B to reggae to rock. The twosome backs up its boasts with an album's worth of curious, diverse, engaging pop.
NINA SKY opens with the infectious, thumping, dancehall style of the sensuous single "Move Ya Body," a track showcasing the Albino sisters' dulcet, flexible vocals. The duo follows up that dance-club beat by slowing it down a bit on the nimble ode to strong womanhood, "You Deserve," for which they enlist one of the masters of that form, Betty Wright. They also display the ability to play gangsta on the tough-minded "Let It Go." All the songs on Nina Sky's debut were penned or co-penned by the sisters, who show a nascent knack for clever phrases. Perhaps the sky is the limit for this fetching duo.

Purchase Nina Sky CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Brandy Afrodisiac CD (2004)
Nina Sky album
 $9.09   
Personal turmoil has always proved to be a creative elixir for musicians, so it's not surprising that Brandy Norwood would dip into that well for inspiration on her fourth album, AFRODISIAC. In addition to her transformation from a teenage pop/TV star to an international music sensation, the 25-year-old vocalist followed motherhood with a divorce and also stepped away from longtime production partner Rodney Jerkins. In the process, Brandy cast herself in a much sexier and more mature light, which is reflected throughout these 15 songs.
Brandy's wisest moves were enlisting hip-hop guru Timbaland behind the boards and bringing Kanye West along for the ride as well. ...
| | Mario Winans Hurt No More CD (2004)
Nina Sky CD music
$12.95 
For a member of the revered Winans clan, practically the first family of gospel, to turn to Bad Boy Records would almost seem scandalous, but so it is with Mario Winans, the sultry-toned crooner/songwriter. After releasing an overlooked debut in 1997, he aligned with Sean Combs's empire to become a well-regarded producer. Almost seven years later, he emerged with the smooth, multicolored HURT NO MORE, a record crafted in the Bad Boy style, but absolutely immersed in soul of the past (particularly the Philly variety).
While Winans's stories of love, loss, desire, and deceit are entirely secular, he sings with unwavering heartfelt soul worthy of an heir to gospel royalty. ...

| | Pretty Ricky Bluestars CD (2005)
Nina Sky songs
$10.15
"Get You Right," a smooth throwback ballad from Miami outfit Pretty Ricky's debut, BLUESTARS, features a hardcore rap that name-checks 1990s groups H-Town and Jodeci. While the four youthful brothers of Pretty Ricky were likely in grade school when these artists had their hits, it's a fitting reference; the quartet's sound reveals an innate feel for the New Jack Swing sound of that time. This approach is evident in ...

| | Best Of The Savoy-Doucet Cajun Band CD (2002)
Nina Sky music CDs
$14.49
This Savoy-Doucet Cajun Band greatest-hits compilation was culled from four previous albums on Arhoolie. The performers are the undisputed masters of Cajun music, as one familiar with the genre already knows prior to picking up the album. It's generally a loping bit of work on some vaguely scratchy fiddle tunes, with the constant strum from Ann Savoy in the background. Marc Savoy's accordion work is perhaps some of the most outstanding Cajun accordion one will hear, though it's relatively rare for him to go out on a major solo run here, preferring to stick with the other players more often. On the whole, it's an entirely worthwhile album for fans of the genre or of the group, as the bandmembers work through a number of old songs from the traditional books and the old masters of the genre, as well as a few ...

As one person said of Scott Greeson, "Some artists perform the songs; some artists are the songs. Scott is definitely the latter."* Scott Greeson’s songs are best described as poetic snapshots of folks living in America’s heartland. His lyrics paint the picture of real, hard-working people whom Scott encounters in everyday life. These people and their stories have been a constant source of inspiration for Scott as a person and as a songwriter. Radio stations call Scott’s music "Americana," a format blending folk, traditional, bluegrass, alternative country, and acoustic blues, and audiences love it. While growing up in Lafayette, Indiana, Scott’s earliest musical inspirations came from those folks living in the "cornfield turned sub-division" in which he grew up: a neighbor who taught him to play guitar, older kids who introduced him to rock and roll, and his parents who made certain he sang in the church choir and also exposed him to country radio. Scott’s early influences were well rounded, from Credence Clearwater Revival to Merle Haggard, to classic church hymns — he listened to and loved it all. Scott started his first rock band at age 12 and wrote his first tune at age 15. Ironically, the first tune was a country ballad that yielded Scott some teasing from his hard-rocking fellow musicians. The song also yielded Scott an award in a statewide songwriting competition. Although his winnings from the contest were limited to some fried chicken, a dozen donuts and some albums that no one really wanted, Scott realized that someone might actually want to hear what he had to say through his music. Scott’s unending love for songwriting and performing music has brought him to the place he is today – with two CDs (Hoosier Surf , and The Proving Grounds), a growing list of fans, and a steadily increasing demand for stage appearances. Scott has graced stages throughout the Midwest. He's performed at the Verizon Wireless Music Center in Indianapolis, on the auxiliary stage prior to the Dwight Yoakum and Trisha Yearwood show. Since that time, Scott and his band have returned to Verizon’s VIP club, performing for patrons prior to shows by artists such as Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn, and Alabama.In January 2006, Scott's and co-writer Kevin Ludwig's original material was used in the PBS documentary, "The Wabash: Life On the Bright White River". ...
