Previews: "Verses & Flow" Season 3


I had the pleasure of attending a few of the recordings for TV One's Verses & Flow and while some of the poetry I heard was hit or miss (it's subjective, so you be the judge), most of the musical guests were spot on killing it.

With that said, an official preview for the upcoming third season of Verses & Flow has hit the net and features a preview that includes Jill Scott, Anthony Hamilton, Avant and Bell Biv DeVoe among others. Watch it go down after the jump and lookout for the kick off to this season when it begins airing on September 11th.

Album in the Works: "Face The Music" (Avant)


Avant has been hard at work on his forthcoming seventh studio album Face The Music and his upcoming EMI/Capital set already boasts his top 10 Adult R&B duet hit single with Keke Wyatt on "You & I." With that said, the famed crooner recently opened up a bit further on his forthcoming project mentioning that  "[i]t's a taste of new school and old school...You might hear a piece of, say, Stevie Wonder or Babyface, then I spin right back around and offer up some new age R&B. It's a well-rounded album with something for everyone. At the end of the day, Face the Music is about who we are and what we live by; it's about respecting that as well as the music." Putting Face The Music into a better perspective, I would welcome you to revisit the set's lead single while we await the release of Avant's upcoming LP!

New Joint: "You & I" (Avant featuring Keke Wyatt)


Avant and Keke Wyatt are back with another collaboration and after joking last week on TV One's "R&B Divas" about how she is mainly known as 'that chick who sings with Avant," Mrs. Wyatt is back singing with the man that "put her on." Either way you feel about that, you can't deny that Avant and Keke Wyatt have vocal chemistry and that it's nice to hear Keke on some new records as her vocals are crazy. With that said, take a listen below to Avant's duet with Keke Wyatt entitled "You & I" and lookout for Avant's forthcoming LP "Face The Music," when it's released at the top of 2013!
