Brandy has been plotting her come back for a while. The diva-in-training has all the tracks ready and the first single already out. It’s about time Brandy releases something. As we said before, Brandy is one of the few artists on earth that have never released something that is not to our liking. So, we really look forward to whatever she decides to come our way. The new album is titled in tribute to Whitney Houston and it is called…
One of the greatest pop acts is going to support one of the greatest rock acts of our generation. If it was a perfect world it would be the other way around. Still, Coldplay have a great ear for good pop music, which was established when they let Girls Aloud open for them much to the dismay of some of their wannabe hipster fans. Click below for the dates.
Whitney Houston’s family may have may have nixed public ceremony plans at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. in place of a private invite-only ceremony at the New Hope Baptist Church, but that won’t stop fans from seeing the funeral in real time.
Houston’s publicist, Kristen Foster announced that there will be an internet live stream of the event for fans wishing to pay their respects, The Telegraph reported.
Anyone wishing to see the funeral can watch on livestream.com/aplive. A few satellite providers will be showing the services as well.
This is one of the singles of Whitney’s career that sometimes goes unnoticed because it was not on her album. Also, because it was only released in the UK. ”Something in Common” is a song by singers Bobby Brown and then-wife Whitney Houston that was featured on Brown’s 1992 album Bobby. Despite the album’s release in mid-1992, this was recorded in September 1991 in Atlanta, Georgia, immediately after Brown and Houston became engaged. The single version was recorded in 1993 and also available on Brown’s 1993 compilation album, Remixes in the Key of B. It stands as the couple’s first musical collaboration and the only one released as a single. The song examines two unlikely people coming together as they find “something in common.”
Since we heard the tragic news that one of the greatest pop artists has passed away we have been scouring the internet for any clues as to what the cause of death was. She seemed like she was on a healthier track and 48 is way too young for someone to die. First there was those pictures of her sweaty night out where Whitney Houston looked liked she had blood on her leg, we dismissed it as red wine in the beginning and then took a closer at the night. It’s not like she was on a downward spiral like everyone talks about it. In fact, Whitney was doing much better than she was this entire decade, at least to our distanced knowledge.
At any rate, Amy Winehouse’s death sparked a general consensus that it was due to illegal drug abuse only for it to come out as a result of excessive alcohol consumption. Now, she looked like she had a couple of drinks before and maybe she couldn’t live with the shame of her pictures being splattered all over the world the next day with her being completely discombobulated after she championed the role of a recovered addict to Oprah while promoting her last album I Look To You. What am I insinuating? Well, could it be possible that the death was a suicide. You know, she was in a bathtub. This is standard procedure for people who slit their wrists because the warm water keeps the vessels dilated for the blood to come out faster.
I am on speculating from afar. But, until its ruled out its not too far-fetched. Granted, it might be a drug relapse or an overdose on prescription drugs. Actually, it may very well be. But, something tells me that these photos of her hard partying did not sit well with the diva who finally polished her image after years and years of trying.
Correct me if I am wrong. This is just some blabber from a loving fan.
What a song! ”I’m Your Baby Tonight” is the lead single and title track from Whitney Houston‘s third studio album of the same name. The song was written and produced by L.A. Reid andBabyface.The single features a B-side, “Feels So Good”, which has not been featured on any Whitney Houston album. While the original version, produced by L.A. Reid and Babyface, was released in the United States, the Yvonne Turner mix (also known as the “Europe Version”), was released in other countries. Houston was nominated for “Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female” with this track at the 33rd Grammy Awards in 1991.
The last songs Whitney Houston recorded will be heard in the film “Sparkle,” one on camera and the other during the closing credits.
Houston sings the gospel classic “Eyes on the Sparrow” in the film and duets with Jordin Sparks, the film’s star, on a new R. Kelly song, “Celebrate” over the end credits. The film is in post-production and on schedule; Sony Pictures has it scheduled for release in early August. RCA will release the soundtrack.
Houston recently finished her recording of “Celebrate.” Sony executives were pleased with both the way Houston looks and sounds in the film, according to a person familiar with the production.
“Sparkle” is a remake of the 1976 Irene Cara film.The picture was to be an acting comeback for the singer, who had not appeared in a theatrical release since “The Preacher’s Wife” in 1996.
Houston was also one of five executive producers on the movie, having acquired remake rights in close to 12 years ago. Her original plan was to have Aaliyah star as Sparkle, until the singer died in a plane crash in August 2001.
Another one of those tracks that resonates so well with Whitney’s great voice. “Didn’t We Almost Have It All” is the second single from Whitney Houston‘s second album Whitney, and was nominated for Song of the Year at the 1988 Grammy Awards. The song was written by Michael Masser and Will Jennings and was released in August 1987. Originally, another song was to be released as the second single, “For The Love Of You”, but Arista Records decided to release “Didn’t We Almost Have It All” instead because all Houston’s singles had to be original material at this point of her career.
The single was number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 even though there was not a video for the song. A live performance of the song recorded during Houston’s successful 1987–1988 Moment of Truth World Tour was played on MTV, VH1, and BET. The performance is from a Saratoga Springs, New York date. It was widely speculated that the song is about Houston’s relationship with then NFL star Randall Cunningham.
So so sad.
News just in that Whitney Houston has passed away. After pictures of her having a “wild night” surfaced, the diva was reported to be dead. Extremely sad. Whitney Houston is one of the most important pop figures of our time. More news to come once it surfaces. We will keep you posted!
People.com reports that the Grammy winner was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. Saturday at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. “We received a call at 3:43 p.m. from hotel security and Beverly Hills Fire and police responded minutes later,” the story quotes Beverly Hills Police Lieutenant Mark Rosen as saying. “It’s unclear who notified hotel staff because she has quite an entourage here at the hotel. We attempted to resuscitate her, to no avail.”
