K. Michelle might know how to become a big star in reality television thanks to her instant rise to stardom on Love and Hip Hop Atlanta, but music will always be her first priority. And since the singer has confirmed on several occasions that she plans to walk way from the hit VH1 show after the second season, now is a better time than ever to focus on getting her music career on track. K. Michelle inked a record deal with Warner Bros. several months ago and her debut studio album “Rebellious Soul” is set to drop this summer. K. Michelle recently spoke on her upcoming album and says in order to make sure it performs well and becomes a hit with her fans, she’s decided to be very hands on with her music:
“I sing about everything that i go through in life. My mentor is Mr. R. Kelly. He always told me to write life and not music and you’ll always have a job.
“The men in the business, they can try to be very dominant. But what I can say for me, I play a lot of roles and I put on a lot of faces. I really don’t let the men in the business conduct my business, so they might say I’m crazy, they might say I’m a b*tch…but I really work. And I get it done.”
As we recently reported, today is the day the singer has opted to release her first single from “Rebellious Soul,” and “V.S.O.P.” has a very sultry feel we’re thinking her fans will love.
In the song, K. Michelle belts out lyrics about being romanced about a guy she’s really feeling. She compares the romance to a very fine liquor (Very Special Old Pale cognac).
It sounds like the real R&B people have been fiending for, but check it out and let us know what you think below.
It’s just ok to me. Maybe it has to grow on me.
Agreed.
It’s very MEH. Nothing special and I don’t see it becoming a hit. She needed a real R&B hit like Tamar got with Love and War.
Wait, did she use auto tune?! She damn sure doesn’t need it!
It’s not bad but it’s not great either. I’ll listen to the whole song when I get home though.
This is it? I’m like you Gabriella, maybe it needs to grow on me too.
I like it! I don’t think it will be a hit though!
I’ll pass.
It’s ok. I wasn’t blown away like I have been with Tamar’s music.
Decent. Not a hit. I wish her the best though.
Some parts sound like she was using auto tune. She’s a good singer, she doesn’t need that crap.
She’s going to have to come out with a hotter song than this.
It’s dope. Has a Hip Hop feel to it.
I really like it. She sounds great.
Eh. It’s ok.
Boring. I expected much more.
This wasn’t strong enough to be her first single IMHO.
It’s cool. Hopefully the next one will be better.
I actually like it. She slayed. 🙂
I like it. I mean, whether it would do well as a single, idk. But if I were listening to the album and this song came on I definitely wouldn’t skip the track. Considering most reality stars and their “talent,” I think this is a good look for her. I hope she keeps the momentum going and drops a nice solid album.
I likey, this is the slow song in the club at the end of the night when you want to go get booed up.
