Complex Magazine's Take on the Album Preview
2008-03-18 23:45:00 Similar to Rap-Up's take on the songs, Complex Mag gives a run-down of their thoughts on the new album preview. This time it makes me a little more excited.The Missy Elliott, Timbaland and Danjahandz trifecta is like big girl “Sexy Back 2008.” Sorry, were you expecting Beyoncé? So Missy isn’t clocking “Supa Dupa Fly” pounds these days, the thicker, edgier Missy—circa 2002—returns on her new untitled album. Her excuse for not showing up to Chelsea’s Roc The Mic studios yesterday entertained press through pre-recorded interludes in between unmixed tracks, “I was busy walking Oprah’s dogs” and “washing Denzel Washington’s cars.” Comedy gold only Missy could pull off took us through eight tracks of future summer anthems (slow jam included), coupled with her devilishly playful how-to’s for shaking (insert female anatomy)…1. “Act A Fool” (produced by Souldiggaz)More hand-claps, thank you very much. “Shake that donkey/show my monkey.” Never any sha...

Missy has "done it again" according to producer Point Guard
2008-03-17 15:26:00 Soon after the reviews of the 8-track new album preview hit the internet, many began wondering who exactly Point Guard was.

For those that don't know, Larry Live goes way back with the Timbaland and Missy crew and also managed Danjahandz!He also had a special message for the Missy fans "to cop the album and show Missy Elliott and the whole Mosley Music Group much love!

2008-03-14 22:14:00 Rap-Up.com got the exclusive chance to preview 8 tracks in their demo versions of Missy 's Upcoming album, here's what they got to say about it:1. “Act a Fool”Produced by Souldiggaz Bringing back producers who dabbled on her last album, Missy dived right into her distinct dance floor beats. On the expected feel-good anthem, she urges the ladies, “Hands up if you’re looking for a baller.” 2. “Best, Best”Produced by Danjahandz Though he turned out Britney’s album, Danja didn’t do much for this track, although Missy herself claims that it’s “what ‘Irreplaceable’ did for Beyoncé’s album” and plans to release it as her first single. Mid-tempo with a lyrical ode to her man.

Timbaland ended the show on a sour note- something about his friends not being let in the event.With a blinged-out cross dangling from his neck, a sweaty Timbaland addressed the crowd at the Avalon Club just after finishing a high energy set with longtime muse Missy Elliott, capping a night of performancesBefore that, the night was a sea of booze, glitz and lighter vibes, with Elliott wearing a black sweatshirt with "CHING A LING" spelled out in glittering gold letters on the front and a bright gold "MS" ring on her hand.Elliott led the crowd in singing happy birthday to Timbaland, whose real birthday is in March. Hard-stomping dancers surrounded them. Elliott even joked, "Leave Britney alone! I like Britney," when the DJ started in with a clip of one of Spears' songs while Elliott performed.Gossip Folks:AP Wire-MISSYWATCH.BLOGSPOT.COM More About: Report , Perform 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
