This edition of Quiet Bounce is a bit more bouncier than usual, but I can't help it. I've been in a House mood as of late, and this track has been getting it's fair share of play on any available outlet that has a speaker attached to it. Lil' Louis was mentioned on an earlier post today and with ...

If I had to make a list of things I've been thankful for in 2009, being able to attend the weekly The Roots Present: The Jam at NYC's Highline Ballroom would be right up near the top. The last two weeks were especially powerful, as the fellas pulled out all the stops with guests like Marsha ...

It's safe to say that after her nasty divorce from Nas , Kelis kinda tore her drawers with, oh, everyone. In recent years she's become more known for drama than for her music. Now 10 years in the game, she's trying to claw her way back into everyone's good graces with some new music to remind us ...

It's been quite some time since we've collectively heard from Dhundee , although if you're in the know, you've been grooving to his podcasts all year long. Apparently, he's been hard at work putting the finishing touches on his full-length album, Take Flight . Featuring Kissey Asplund , Maya ...

No month-long homage to Mary J. Blige would in any way be complete without acknowledging her profound contribution to the genre known as Hip Hop Soul. When she was anointed its Queen by the King of Overexaggeration, Puff Daddy as he was known then, I will admit I did a double-take. True, the ...

Last night's American Music Awards telecast was a circus. Between J-Lo falling down during what was supposed to be her triumphant return to the stage and Lady Gaga 's fiery piano and Rihanna 's flashing lights shoulder pads, the ladies were running this muthafather...into the ground. One of the ...

I mentioned on Twitter the other day that there's been very little promo for Angie Stone 's new album Unexpected for it to be dropping on Tuesday. Lo and behold a video popped up for the lead single, "I Ain't Hearin' U," mere days later. That's the good news. The bad news is that there's not ...

Being introduced as the Queen of Hip Hop Soul on What's The 411? meant that there had to be better and badder remixes of your original material just like true Hip Hop singles. With Puffy at the helm, Mary J. did not ever waver on that end. Her sound stayed being pumped in jeeps from 125th ...

After being teased during Wednesday's prime time special , the full video for Janet Jackson 's "Make Me" premiered last night during ABC's 20/20 . My partner in crime Ro said all that needs to be said about the clip. This is just an update to give you the full show. Vintage Janet, indeed. ...

Two things struck me simultaneously the other day as I was listening to DMX : firstly, DMX used to be able to get it hype and convey so many deep emotions all at once and secondly, some dude who was my first love did me wrong when this same DMX song was circulating on the radio. This led me to ...

Van Hunt 's "Down Here in Hell (With You)" feels particularly timely right now. We're descending into the end-of-year holidays during an unrelenting recession. Everyone is digging in, situations are really tough, and the passion between many lovers is under strain and being tested. "Down Here ...

No celebration of the Queen of Hip Hop Soul would be complete without noting the many style transformations that have occurred throughout her career. It's not often that we can gauge someone's growth in life based on what they're wearing, but Mary J. Blige is someone who literally wears her ...

So, it's been pretty evident since the founding of SoulBounce that we have an unshakable fondness for Miss Jackson . There's no denying that the woman is a pop icon. After her gut wrenching interview on ABC on Wednesday evening during which she could barely mention that her brother had passed ...

I adore the Brand New Heavies . How happy was I when the original lineup--consisting of Jan Kincaid , Simon Bartholomew , Andrew Levy and N'Dea Davenport --reunited and released an album in 2006. They've toured extensively in that time and if you've been blessed to see them live in concert as I ...

As a satellite radio subscriber, I first loved the lack of commercials, then hated the loss of stations once XM and Sirius merged. But there are a few reasons to tune in, even though my beloved Jazz fusion station is no more. Starting tomorrow until November 25th, Real Jazz's channel 72 on ...

So. This video of a group called Black Dub -- Trixie Whitley , Brian Blade , Daryl Johnson and Daniel Lanois --recording the song "I Believe In You" is simple. Just a black and white recording of a...recording. For the first thirty seconds or so the affectations of singer Trixie Whitley were a ...
