It’s been a minute since
I’ve heard an R&B song that was just, “SMOOTH.” So smooth
that you wanted to hear it over and over. Well Nicole and Natalie, the
ladies of Nina Sky have crafted a collaboration with Rick Ross titled
“Curtain Call” that makes you feel good about R&B again. It's
one of those songs you get excited about and immediately turn up when
you hear it on the radio or holler out - “That’s my jam!” when
you hear it in the club.
So many songs today are way
too blunt and have no finesse to them. Some artists don’t extend their
creativity to talk about being intimate or sexual; they force it, which
in turn gives Hip-Hop and R&B music today a bad reputation. But
when I hear “Curtain Call” it resembles how old school R&B artists
used to be subtle and coined phrases or terms where you knew what they
meant, but it didn’t come across so vulgar.
In “Curtain Call” the ladies
of Nina Sky sing about giving the signal to get it poppin’ and engage
in a steamy late night rendezvous. And how when you embrace that moment,
it's time for your man to leave what he’s doing, come home and give
ya the business. All while Rick Ross drops a swaggerdosish
16 that would make the average chick smile.
I don’t know if it’s the
sweet sound of Nicole and Natalie’s voices that makes me fall in love
with this song, or it’s just how smooth they talk about a late night
hook up. Either way, it’s been a while since we’ve heard anything
from Nina Sky, and I’m glad to see the ladies are making a come back. They're putting the finishing touches on their new album The Musical.
Did I mention this week how
much I LOVE a good ol’ duet? Guess I just did! And I am definitely
putting this joint down as one of my all time favorites from Nina Sky.
Until next week, y’all enjoy
