Cover, RnB, Videos | John Mayer – Slow Dancing in a Burning Room (SoMo Rendition)
Posted by J_Salzer on June 3, 2013
Another Monday morning, another chance for smooth singing, Joseph SoMo to boggle my mind with his latest cover. This week, he takes on a John Mayer tune. No easy feat, even for a singer of SoMo’s caliber. The result though, is astounding. Every track SoMo takes on, he meets it with emotion tenfold of the original. He finds ways to relate to the lyrics he’s singing, and tell his own story, even though he didn’t write it. But if you want something phenomenal that he DID write, check out his latest original here. Remember the name Joseph SoMo ladies and gentleman, and don’t forget it.
Chill, Hip-Hop, Rap | Jetpack Jones ft. James Joseph – Solar (Prod. Brock Berrigan)
Posted by J_Salzer on May 23, 2013
Fresh New Track’s favorite emcee, Jetpack Jones, hits us with his latest masterpiece, Solar. Solar is different than most Jetpack tracks, but instead of leaving you all to struggle trying to find out what that special something is, I’ll just tell you. Jetpack recruited a singer to sing his hook. Usually, Jetpack sings his own hooks, but I think that this is a nice change up and let’s him focus on purely rapping. “Solar” is my favorite Jetpack track to date, and I’m sure his upcoming mixtape, Beyond Infinity, will have plenty of songs just like this for me to vibe to. Grab the track for free courtesy of the man and be on the lookout for the next single off of “Beyond Infinity”
Pop, Videos | Con Bro Chill – Dance Thief

These guys are absolutely insane. I know nothing about them, and I had never heard of them until Max from Aer’s camp introduced me, but their music is addictive. The video is hilarious, and the music is great. You can tell that these guys are having the time of their lives, and it makes listening to their music that much better. The beat is a dance infused, radio ready, banger, and the lead singers vocals remind me of an alternative rock singer from the 2000’s. Grab their latest album on iTunes here, and keep up with them on Twitter and Facebook.

Allow me to christen your lobes with the sounds of 1st Round Record’s newest artist, Bridge. The 21-year old singer/songwriter/occasional rap verse spitter, nests among the stars of Los Angeles, but makes it very clear on this track his confidence and talent eclipse’s hundreds of other aspiring artists striving for fame in the same city. “Do Ya Right” is an edgy, confident pursuit of that dreamy dime every man strives for. Stay tuned as Bridge prepares for the release of the second installment of his trilogy series, Creature Of Habit, due out April 10th.

Cover, Hip-Hop, Videos | Frank Ocean – Eyes Like Sky (Rendition) by SoMo
Posted by J_Salzer on March 10, 2013
Every Sunday night, I am hit with the blues. My weekend is coming to a close, normal life resumes tomorrow, and I must continue the mundane task that is school. But alas, I have a saving grace. Every Sunday in recent memory, SoMo has released a new rendition. SoMo Sunday has become a staple of my weekend, and I’ve even found myself looking forward to Sunday night…a little bit. This week, SoMo takes on a Frank Ocean track, which is an extremely daunting task. Frank Ocean is an incredibly talented singer, but also an incredibly talented story teller. He sings with emotion and passion, much like SoMo. I logged on to Twitter a few minutes ago, and saw that SoMo had posted the video 23 seconds ago, after clicking on it, I noticed that the YouTube comments were already filled with women swooning over this week’s SoMo Sunday. I am not afraid to admit that I’ve lost more than one woman to the voice of Mr. SoMo. Maybe next week he will take on a Mr. Steal Yo Girl song?

After PropaneLv & the LTRMN stirred up Reddit with their Harlem Shake Remix/Video last week, the singer/rapper takes it back down several notches and covers Frank Ocean’s new single “Eyes Like Sky”. Lv draws inspiration from the instrumental and melody then proceeds to make it his own, as usual.
