CYPRESS HILL – RISE UP
****
EMI
Nearly 20 years after their debut album, the hip hop trendsetters are back with a winner. The avant-garde group once again xperiments with various genres, primarily rock and hip hop, to produce the unique sound that made them underground rap-royalty in the early Nineties. ‘Rise Up’ and ‘It Ain’t Nothing’ are particularly well-engineered tracks.

***
EMI

HHP is an energetic performer who knows how to engage the crowd and provide an interactive performance. Fans will love this one.

USHER – RAYMOND VS RAYMOND
*
EMI
The R&B crooner is back with a new album after disappointing sales of his previous title Here I Stand. The hit-maker wallows in the aftermath of his recent divorce and his lyrics, reflecting his pain, are nothing short of uninspired. It’s not all melancholic though, there are some fast-paced singles such as ‘Little Freak’ featuring Nicki Minaj.

SADE – SOLDIER OF LOVE
***
EMI
After a 10-year gap Sade returns with her sixth studio album in a 25-year musical career. The British star sticks to her hit-making formula of simple yet deeply profound songwriting that made previous albums such as Lovers Rock classics. Every track is beautifully rendered and well thought out. This is a must-have for any Sade fan.
