"Down To Earth," is British singer/songwriter Jem’s sophomore album. Since her 2004 acclaimed debut, "Finally Woken," Jem has spanned the globe. Born in Wales, she now resides in LA. On this latest album, Jem shared production and writing duties with cohorts both old and new, Jeff Bass, one of the two brothers credited with discovering Eminem, and Lester Mendez (Shakira, Santana, and Nelly Furtado). The album reflects Jem’s far-ranging influences including Brazilian percussion on the title track, "Crazy," a hip shaking track complete with funky banjos, and the tempestuous Latin-flavored track "I Want You To."

 

Grammy award-winning R&B singer/songwriter Ne-Yo has a new album out this week titled "Year of the Gentleman." The album’s first single "Closer" is already certified gold for selling more than 600,000 copies. The single was also nominated for "Best Dancing in a Video" award at this year's MTV Video Music Award’s.

 

Nelly’s latest album, "Brass Knuckles" is one of the most anticipated rap releases of 2008. Production includes some of the hottest producers on the scene today -- Polow Da Don (Ludacris, Chris Brown, Usher), Pharrell Williams (N.E.R.D., Madonna, Gwen Stefani) and Jermaine Dupri (Jay Z, Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey), to name a few. Cumulatively, Nelly has sold close to 30 million singles/albums worldwide, establishing him as one of the top-selling rap artists of our time.
