Usher - Here I Stand
May 31, 2008 by Willis
Filed under New Album - Hip Hop

“After a four-year break, Usher’s fifth set is bursting with grown man, true-to-life tales like leaving his player ways behind (”Before I Met You”), falling in love (”Something Special,” “Lifetime” and the title track), making love (”This Ain’t Sex”) and having a child (”Prayer for You,” featuring a weeping Usher Raymond V, his new baby son). Grown-up relationships drive “His Mistakes,” about a woman who is scarred by a past fling, the piano-and-drum-laden “Best Thing” featuring Jay-Z and “What’s a Man to Do,” which finds Usher belting about loving two women at once. Still, tracks like the naughty “Love in This Club,” the sensual “Trading Places” (”You get on top/ tonight I’m on the bottom”) and the Danja-produced “Appetite,” about his desire for sex, confirm Usher still hasn’t lost his young boy charm.—Mariel Concepcion”

Scarlett Johansson - Anywhere I Lay My Head
May 29, 2008 by Willis
Filed under New Album - Pop

”Trapped inside Scarlett Johansson’s porcelain skin is the voice of a canary—in a coal mine. A worldly alto pops out of those pouty lips, thus making her choice to release an album of Tom Waits covers a bit less odd. While surprisingly deep, Johansson’s pipes don’t approach the dirt gargle of Waits himself. But she’s an actress, and his songs are some of the best monologues ever set to music. Cuts like “Falling Down” come off like a Cambridge girl doing karaoke at the campus bar. But others achieve poignancy: See “Fannin Street,” intrepidly plucked from Waits’ 2006 three-CD outtakes collection, or album closer “Who Are You,” which doubles Johansson’s voice with producer David Sitek’s bass, hinting at a Waits duet of acceptance. The whole set is heavily dosed with reverb and electro-swirls, perhaps to cloak Johansson’s vocal limitations as much as to add psychedelia. —Kerri Mason”
