JMSN - Girl I Used to Know
Artist: JMSN
Featuring: Boldy James
Producer: JMSN
Album: †Priscilla†
Label: White Room Records
And I thought I was the only one morbidly fascinated by The 700 Club! Today, we meet a Detroit repping Booth newcomer who digs Pat Robertson and his tele-fundamentalist ilk so much that he goes by the name “Christian TV.” Or maybe it’s because Christian is his actual name, and my explanation is totally made-up—you be the judge. In any case, the Universal Motown signee is more Justin Timberlake than Oral Roberts, judging by album leak The Girl I Used to Know. Here, the headliner does double-duty on the mic and behind the boards, crafting a haunting arpeggiated-synth beat to back him as he cryptically warns fellas about a female whose alluring exterior hides deep, dark secrets. Fellow Motown native Boldy James echoes Christian’s sentiments on the guest tip, affirming his allegiance to the streets (aka, “Concrete Connie”) over any other woman. Sure to be a hit with femmes fatales and the men who (tragically) love them, this moody banger is just one of many to be found on Diary of an 80s Baby. The album is currently unscheduled but, in the meantime, fans can cop official lead single I’m in Love at all major online retailers.

I met Christian TV back in February at a Grammy Award weekend party and I was impressed with her personality and style. At the time, however, I had not heard much of his music. Since then nothing was overly impressive, but when I heard "Girl I used to Know" that changed. His vocals remind me a little of UK's Daniel Bedingfield, but with more swag (yes, that word again). I'm not crazy about Boldy's slighty monotone delivery, but the production and vocals from Chris are excellent.

Too slow. I would like it if the song was from 3:00 on, but it's not.
