Teedra Moses- Artist Spotlight
Teedra Moses, a very talented Hip Hop soul-singer and writer based out of L.A., happens to be one of my favorite Songstresses. A very beautiful, melodic voice with lyrics that totally captivate her audience. She has already established a strong fan base, but for some reason this talented lady can't seem to break mainstream success (i'd like to argue that mainstream success is a curse anyway). Nevertheless, I've decided to dedicate an Artist Spotlight to her.
She has been in the game for nearly 8 years, and with one album, "Complex Simplicity" and a string of mixtapes. Her most recent Royal Patience was released earlier this year.

Chrisette Michelle - I'm A Star
Chrisette Michelle's third studio album Let Freedom Reign is due November 30, 2010. With two amazing albums under her belt this third album is a bit different than what we may be used to. Her usual soul ballads will be a little different this time around because Ms. Michelle is rapping. Noted to be a rapper long before she was a singer, this should be interesting and a new sound. As long as she doesn't do the typical female rapper imitation, i.e. Nicki Minaj, Foxy Brown, Lil Kim, etc. I'm all ears.
Here's one of her singles "I'm A Star"

Dwele "My People"
Dwele's My People is from his 5th studio album W.ants W.orld W.omen. The song is written, produced, and some of the instruments are played by Dwele himself. This song is a beautiful tale of our society today specifically the black community. Hailing from Detroit, Michigan, I am sure he has had his fair share of societal ills inflicted upon the poor working class black population. A very insightful, accurate, and well constructed piece on "My People" hits topics from unemployment to how hard times are even though we've "come so far". Wonderful Piece!

Blame Game Kanye West
One of my favorite tracks off of his new album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, is Blame Game featuring John Legend and produced by DJ Toomp. This version im posting is slowed down due to copyright infrigment laws. I'll post the normal version after November 22.
Big Krit
Hailing from Mississippi, Big Krit is the south's newest underground rapper with an actual message. He definitely speaks for the youth specifically, the one's enduring the trials and tribulations of growing up in the south A.D. 2000.
Using beats reminiscent of U.G.K. and lyrics to the likes of Outkast and Goodie Mob back in '96, his self-produced debut mixtape "Krit Wuz Here" dropped in May of 2010. Check this dude out he's definitely the truth.
