Debut Bazzi Mixtape

American singer Bazzi (full name Andrew Bazzi) has released his debut mixtape Soul Searching. He previously released his debut album Cosmic in April 2018.

Soul Searching came out on 9th August and consists of 11 tracks including the single Paradise, Focus featuring 21 Savage, I.F.L.Y and Soul Searching (although I'm not sure if the last one is an official single). The music is similar to his album, hip hop/rap and R'n'B, with the same laid back vibes. My favourite songs are Humble Beginnings, Focus and Can We Go Back to Bed? and I also like I.F.L.Y and  Soul Searching.

Here are some of my fave songs. Please note that some of the songs are explicit. :)

Soul Searching

This is the title song from the mixtape and the video came out on 9th August. I featured as a Weekly Music Video last week and you can watch it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/08/weekly-music-video_78.html

Humble Beginnings

Humble Beginnings is my favourite song on Soul Searching and I recently bought it on iTunes. It's about Bazzi's journey to get to where he has. (I like the That's So Raven reference!) This is the official audio.


Can We Go Back to Bed?

Anther good one. It's about a relationship in trouble. My favourite parts are the rapping verses.


Focus feat 21 Savage

This was the 2nd single from Soul Searching and came out in June. It features British born, American based rapper 21 Savage.


I.F.L.Y.

The 3rd single, this was released last month. I.F.LY. stands for I F**king Love You! This is the official music video.


Also here is the video for Paradise, the first single: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x90WLRa5uGo

Bonus

Thought I'd include a bonus song! Here is the video for Dreams, one of my favourite songs from Bazzi's album Cosmic.  It was uploaded last November and I don't think I'd seen it before today.



Hope you enjoyed the post! :) What do you think of Soul Searching?

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
