Whitney Houston names album “I Look To You”

Jesus. Maybe? Bobby Brown? Unlikely. Michael Jackson? Yes. Anyway, the title is tepid and not what was expected. It should have been a proclamation. Some big statement about coming back and standing out. I mean, if Ashanti can call her album The Declaration then Whitney Houston can do much better, for reals. I Look To You doesn’t quite deliver liked Undefeated. The supposed first single, which I am sure is just a teaser, is already being hailed as a Leona Lewis b-side. The title is overawing – “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” – but the strength’s not in the song. Voice in-tact, but not that great of a melody. Everything aside, any new material is welcome.

The album finally got a release date from Arista Records officials. It’s slated for a September 1, 2009 release. No word on the title yet, but the one that has been floating around is Undefeated. But, wikipedia is now reporting that it will be called The Wait Is Over. The latter is a bit boring. The first single is called “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” and that sounds just like the perseverance ditty that she needs. It’s weird that it’s also coming out around the same time as Mariah Carey’s Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel. Can’t wait!

The jury’s out on whether this was a skit or half-skit half-real. In both cases, Eminem is the dick. If it was a skit, then the world know nows that Eminem likes balls on his face, which is why he is homophobic. If it wasn’t a skit, he deserved every second of it and more.
