James Taylor

My mom has always played James Taylor in her car or at home, but I never really realized how much I liked him until now. He has a really gentle way of singing, but his songs sound amazing and his lyrics are really deep. Unlike most musicians who have become really famous he has kept a pretty low profile and has never really gotten into much trouble. My favorite thing about his music is how he mixes his voice with this guitar. It's done in a way that I have never heard from any other musician in the past. I really like his music and I will continue to listen to it in the future.

Michael Jackson Album

I heard a little bit of the new Michael Jackson album, and I thought that it was pretty good. I think that T.I. did a good job of keeping Michael Jackson's original songs but also altering them in the studio. This album didn't really sound like a full-fledged Michael Jackson production in terms of scale ad variety, but it was pretty decent, and I'm sure it brought in a lot of revenue for the producers. It was very sad that he died so young, because he could still be making amazing albums today.
