Sheena Rose Drops Hot New Dance Track

Sheena Rose is a queen out of San Francisco who has set out to prove that you don't need to be on Drag Race to be making music. She has released a few songs over the past few years, but she's back in 2013 with her newest track "Make Me Over" -- and it's got like a hundred remixes to go along with it.


Ok, so maybe saying it has a hundred remixes is a stretch, but it does have a lot. Sheena seems to be wanting to please any and every kind of electronic music fan. There are so many remixes for this track that it's had to be split into two separate EPs totaling nearly 20 track. Let's just say Ms. Rose isn't messing around.

Among these mixes are some pretty big names, which really had me a bit surprised. When you've got a name like Nina Flowers, fan favorite from season one of RuPaul's Drag Race and contestant on RuPaul's All Stars Drag Race, you know things are serious. Other big names like Subgroover and Naked Highway make several appearances across the two releases as well.

As for the song itself (the original being the LFB Radio edit), I was a bit worried at first. The song has a shaking beginning, sounding a bit out of sync with it's backtrack. I am unsure if this is just the edit or not. However, it quickly recovers, turning into a very fun and upbeat track. The vocals themselves may not be the best, but it's obvious she is having fun with the song, and in the end that is what shines through and makes this track so addicting.

And with 17 remixes, you'll never run out of ways to keep this song sounding fresh and new!

The EPs are on iTunes here and here.

2012's Biggest Misses: Jipsta On Ranny's Debut EP

Man I am a horrible friend. Jipsta, a constant supporter of mine and good friend, has released another new song. Usually I'm on top of his new music, but this one slipped right past my radar. Again, I've missed something everyone expected me to talk about. Please allow me to rectify this situation by talking to you about Ranny having Jipsta's new track on his debut EP. Lemme talk about "Moombah Zoombah".

 

All biased aside, I have to say that Jipsta has come a long way over the past two years. His debut album was a long journey, and at times it really did show. This song, along with the other single that was by both Ranny and Jipsta "Lover Who Rocks You" both sound astronomically more polished and on point. Not to say I didn't love his debut!

The song, as the name suggest, sounds a bit more tribal and raw than what is heard on the radio. As always, Ranny has produced an addictive beat for Jipsta to flow to. Speaking of which, JP's raps on this track not only run smoothly and sound just as good, if not better, than rap you would hear on the radio these days.

Ok maybe I'm biased just a little, but he is good!

The rest of Ranny's debut EP, "Party Crasher" has a lot of familiar faces. Not only does it have Jipsta's other newest single featuring Reina, it also has the song he released a while back with Drag Race star Jessica Wild, "You Like It Wild" and the track with Drag Race Allstar Nina Flowers "Loca -- both of which were pretty big hits considering the names they were paired off with.

You can buy "Moomba Zoomba", as well as the full "Party Crasher" EP on iTunes. Give it a listen.
