DJ Colossal's I-Pod Pick: Lova J. "If I Only Had One Wish"


This week's I-Pod pick is on South Carolina soul singer Lova J's single "If I Only Had One Wish".  This song is about a crush a man has on a particular woman that he wants to be with so badly, but she is with someone else.  So the vocalist wishes that he could be with her instead.  The song conveys this message smoothly without the artist coming off as some love sick stalker or emotionally deprived love beggar.  What really makes this song so great in my opinion is that the track has a real "old school" early to mid 90s R&B vibe to it, and that's good to hear when most of the R&B songs coming out today have a real heavy synthetic, robotic futuristic Euro pop sound to it.  The guest rapper by the name of G.P. really adds flavor to the beginning of the song and does a great job opening the song up for Lova J.  This is a nice song to sit back, relax and chill to while listening.

Celsius911 talks about the 11/11/11 (Nov. 11th 2011) mixtape

Celsius911 has a new mixtape coming out titled 11/11/11 set to released on the 11th day of the 11th month of this year (2011).  The Giant Blast recently got a hold of the artist to discuss this latest project in this quick one on one interview.  Here is what Celsius911 had to say.



The Giant Blast:  What can listeners expect to hear on the 11/11/11 mix tape?  
Celsius911:  They can expect to hear new music from me exploring all subjects that everybody facing right now. Things that everybody goes through and deals with.  Partying, political, economic, sex.  Its gonna be a lil bit of everything on there.  Expect it to be 1 of a kind just like the date 11/11/11.


What inspired you to do this project? 
Ive always felt a strong connection to the time 11:11.  I've always been drawn to the significance of that number on a spiritual level so it would only seem right to release a free project to the people on the date 11/11/11.  Its the only time we'll see that date in our lifetime so it only makes sense to release records that I care about, made for people that i care about on that date.


Who did you work with for this project? 
I got a few records on there with producer Zukhits.  Also did a few joints over some popular instrumentals.  As for artists; I got Bryce from Spit Hot Fire on there, got a female artist by the name of Moanz on there and a few other talented artists that I enjoy working with.

What plans do you have after the 11/11/11 mixtape? 

Definitely got the mix tape Diary 1.5 coming out late Dec. early Jan. A lot of shows, videos and interviews. Also more mix tapes. On the grind heavy.


You have been getting lots of praise from DJs such as DJ Colossal and others recently how do you feel about that? 
I'm happy about that and really appreciate it.  It's good that the hard work is paying off and being appreciated.  I just wanna continue to work hard and keep making music that people like.


What are your plans for 2012? 
Mix tapes, shows, videos, big records, surprise collabos and hopefully another album by the end of 2012.  Not slowing down.
