J Music: Thoughts While I’ve Been Away…

I want to love Sevyn. Talented writer. Singer and dancer. Signed to CBE.

Love: Her new single “It Won’t Stop.” Great follow-up to “I Like It,” and confirmed my interest in her album.

Hate Strongly Dislike: Last month I searched for far too long to find a live performance I thought was good enough to post on my site (I didn’t find one). Having seen her as a member of RichGirl, I expected her live performance to be much tighter, vocally, than what I found.

One item off my summer bucket list: Diamonds World Tour at the Barclays Center

Love: We can all agree the vocals from the 777 direct feed were a bit crazy, nonetheless Rih sounded good and performed a great set including almost all her tracks from Unapologetic. Though she stuck mostly to gyrating, I appreciated her attempts at dancing.

Hate Strongly Dislike: I was really unimpressed by the set design and most of the outfits for Rihanna and her dancers.  You could definitely tell they made serious budget cuts after she lost money on the Last Girl on Earth tour (definitely better overall production). Womp.

Not that I feed into the whole Illuminati thing, but why is Givenchy so popular? Most of the stuff I see looks like fashion folks would wear in hell. Just sayin’….
