"Where Would I Be" by Dane Riley (R&B Artist from Washington D.C.(DC))

Multi-talented artist Dane Riley and his latest album "Where Would I Be," is a collection of songs in which he writes/performs all of the music and lyrics while fusing the genres of R&B, Soul, Funk, and the Blues with a computerized sound that is well produced and has a dynamic balance. "I Like To Jam" is a groovy number that has great bass and guitar interplay and that is so catchy it might make you want to get up and dance. "Mixin It Up" is a quicker moving song in which we really hear the influence of Funk as Riley shows us some of his talented and pleasantly-effected, guitar playing. "The Bright Side" is a song with a little bit more of a modern flare as it employs a great urban/R&B rhythm. This is an album in which we hear Dane Riley dive into his synthesizer and electric instruments to give us a compilation of songs that subtly blends numerous genres into a danceable product. If you are a fan of Prince then you would enjoy the compositions on the CD "Where Would I Be" by Dane Riley.

"Young Girl" by Londyn (R&B Artist from Ohio(OH))

Londyn is a 17-year-old R&B singer-songwriter from Cleveland with the talent and ambition to turn some heads on - what should be, her inevitable journey to stardom. The title track on her new 5-song CD, "Young Girl," is a contemporary and sophisticated slice of R&B with an irresistible hook and savvy production flourishes. Like Alicia Keys, another singer who started young and carved out her path to success by writing and trusting her own considerable abilities, Londyn displays that same confidence in abundance. In addition to a capella and instrumental versions of the terrific "Young Girl," her other originals, "Crush On U" and "Dirty," are Beyonce-like urban anthems that show Londyn is no one-trick pony. A special performer boasting a great voice and that special something that, for lack of a better word, translates to artistic vision, Londyn's "Young Girl" CD will impress any fan of contemporary, street-smart - and radio-ready, R&B.
