Musiq Redeems Himself With 'SoBeautiful'


musiq_soulchild_radio.jpgMusiq Soulchild fans can breathe a sigh of relief. After being subjected to that wretched song as the first single from his next album, I am here to tell you the man hasn't sold out! Whereas I don't know about every track that will appear on OnMyRadio, I can say that he returns to his tried and true formula of crafting soulful music with substance on at least one other song from the album. Yes!

I saw Mr. Soulchild in concert a couple weeks ago and as he sang his way through his deep catalog of crowd-pleasing favorites, he introduced us to a new song entitled "SoBeautiful." My side-eye started watering as a rush of questions came to my brain: Was he gonna sing about rims and rotund booties? Was Lil Wayne gonna jump out like a goblin from the backstage shadows to rap? Would there be auto-tune involved? However, by the time the first note played, my fears were allayed. "SoBeautiful" was a lovely song about commitment that fit nicely into the show. Now this was the Musiq that I came to know and love. Hearing this song made me forgive him for pandering to the mainstream, and now I'm actually looking forward to getting my hands on OnMyRadio this November. Albeit with my finger on the FF button when that song comes on.
