Independent Soul Divas 2 is slicker, smoother, jazzier and a lot more soulful than the previous one.

There's the welcome return for Adina Howard. Adina debuts for Lola Waxx with ‘What Do I Do', showing us a more versatile, serious and soulful dimension to her. The groove is a 21st Century Brand New Heavies influenced concoction but the vocals are Adina Howard all over. Exclusive only to this album, ‘What Do I Do' will gain new territory for the lady whilst is sure to surprise and please her existing fans.

LeNora Jaye chips in with her timely ‘Times Are hard’, which tackles the current global recession and the financial uncertainty facing many people at this time. Who could have thought that the economic meltdown could be made to sound so soulful?

ndependent Soul Divas 2 also features brand new singles by Lea Lorien, Rena Scott, Maya Neiada, Kelli Sae, Razzberry, D'Cheri and Lori Jenaire. Then there's Sy Smith, Rachel Brown, Melissa Young, Lina, Tracy Cruz and Kendra Ross. And if that isn't enough, Aura Jackson's anthemic ‘Walk After U' (also known as ‘Tingle in My Toes'), gets a well-deserved UK outing at last.

You'll find 16 killer cuts (with 10 new songs!) and no fillers. No need to press the skip button on this one. This is undoubtedly the compilation set of 2009.

Humpty Dumpty is not the traditional egg, but a somewhat egg-shaped bass playing cat! This track is from the CD release "Music in Motion" from Groove Kid Nation. Rodney Lee is a professional musician and with this release he wants to bring the funk into the next generation!

This week I've had contact with Dave Karl who wrote, produced the track "I don't play those games" back in 1985 on the UK label Logic Records. He told me a nice story about the making of that record.

Drew Schultz Eddie Willis Last year Drew Schultz put out the "Back To Class" CD that benefited the public school music programs in Detroit with The Four Tops and a ton of other old-school Motown artists as featured guests. This music project, which he just starting to continue:

Last Sunday, September 1st, he released the follow up single featuring Eddie Willis, original guitarist of Motown's studio recording band, The Funk Brothers. Eddie is the guitarist on almost every Detroit-era Motown hit by folks like Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross & The Supremes, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, The Contours, Mary Wells, Junior Walker & The All Stars, Edwin Starr, and many more. As with the original CD, 50% of the profits will go to benefit the music programs at the Detroit Public Schools. This is the first in a line of singles, and Drew has plans on starting to branch the project out to other cities as well.
