postheadericon NEW MUSIC: Ahmir - Find Your Love (Drake Remix)

Those of you out there who know me well, know that i'm not easily impressed when it comes to music...and i'm especially picky and overprotective when it comes to my beloved R&B. But ever since their debut single "Welcome To My Party" dropped back in 2006, R&B group "Ahmir" (Arabic for "Prince") have never failed to impress the living crap outta me time and time and time again.

These dudes, man...i dunno how they do it, but they manage to take shitty Pop songs by artists that i hate with a vengeance, flip it completely with a whole new R&B vocal arrangement...and eventually make me LIKE the songs!!! It's crazy. And i should hate them for that, but i don't. 'Cause this group right here is on some complete other next level shit when it comes to their vocal delivery, and when i get goosebumps, it's usually a pretty good sign. I'm not saying they're Boyz II Men, as their achievements will probably always remain unmatched and unreachable for any other post-millenium R&B group, especially with the state of today's music industry...but one thing's for damn sure - they've got what it takes to carry the torch if Boyz II Men ever feel like calling it quits.

The latest Ahmir cover version is their re-make of Drake's "Find Your Love". I'm really feeling Drake as an all-round artist, because i think he's fresh and in a league of his own, and i thought "Find Your Love" was an awesome single. But then along comes Ahmir and messes it up for him by making the song EVEN BETTER.

May i add that they have already won multiple awards, gained over 15 Million YouTube views, worked with Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, and even had hit records on the Billboard charts - yet they're still unsigned!!!! Impressive stuff, i know...but Jesus Christ, will someone give these dudes a break and hand them a record deal already???!!! The fuck is wrong with you labels??!

RATING: 9/10
