read it and weep.
LGG topping multiple categories while keys is not. even. on. the. fucking. list.

Since when does that list matter. We're not talking celebrates we're talking talent. Even pee-wee herman made it to the top of that list.


OP, check out Empire State of Mind Part II (no Jay-Z) live on Good Morning America from a couple of days ago... even better IMO. And she's like 5 months pregnant too... amazing.

Very nice.


I haven't heard just her version. So she recorded a version without Jay Z? I thought it was his song.

It's her song.

Uhm...that is NOT New York, New York. That is some other shitty song with a tiny bit of the actual song at the beginning.

They shouldn't even be allowed to use Sinatra's song.
 
She's seriously talented and hot. That being said I hate R&B music and something about her just bothers me. Did I mention she's hot?
 
The Element of Freedom is a decent album. I ended up buying it because I liked her singing in that exact song.

I would give the album a 7.5 out of 10.

Empire State of Mind (Part II). It's on "Element of Freedom". It feels more like a solo continuation of Jay's song, which she was featured on.
 
That song totally reminds me of the Yankees winning the World Series last year.
Still not a fan of it surpassing Frank Sinatra's "New York, New York" as the theme song though.
 
she's pretty and has a nice voice, but she really really needs help writing songs, her songs suck. she's been coasting on her image for a long time now.
