Monday blues got you down??! I have the perfect remedy for that, y'all.
In these times when synthetic sounds and vocals rule the airwaves_ugh_a beacon of shining light has come forth to break the monotony that is po(o)p music.
This week's Música Monday is dedicated to the fantastic talent (and my baby mama) that is Ariana Grande.
The 20 year old singer from Florida made a splash onto the scene as Nickelodeon's Kat on the sitcom "Victorious". Now stepping out of the shadow of Victoria Justice and out on her own, with her first album "Yours Truly" this phenomenal talent is on her way top. With vocals akin to the likes of early Mariah Carey and a style that harkens back to the pop R&B music of the early 90's which is totes my fav, Ariana Grande is sure to be a lasting figure in the music industry.
Some standout tracks from Yours Truly are the opening track "Honeymoon Avenue" which gives me so many feels, because who doesn't love a good "let's get back together" song.
"Lovin' It" features a sample of Mary J. Blige's "Real Love" which has an amazing mid-tempo groove that gives me so much life
AND CAN WE JUST TAKE A SECOND TO TALK ABOUT THOSE FREAKING AMAZING VOCALS??!!!!! (listen to "Almost is never enough")
"Daydreamin'" gives a good insight into Ariana's musical doo-wop-meets-90's-R&B aesthetic.
I LOVVVE ME SOME ARIANA!!!!
May a little dose of new music brighten your Monday and boost your week!
