Shawnna - Block Music (Def Jam)Releasedatum: 27 juni 2006
Possessing both sex appeal and lyrically sharp volleys, Shawnna has the best of both worlds. Here she returns with her sophomore set, 'Block Music', and proves why she’s worthy of another shot. Although she maintains her rough edge with lyrically tense cuts like 'Bang' and the title track, Shawnna also taps into her softer side. The tender 'Take It Slow' featuring Ludacris and Bobby Valentino has her spinning a sensual tale of love and regret. Teaming up with DTP newcomer Shareefa for 'Can’t Break Me', Shawnna expounds on the struggles of juggling life, music and single motherhood ("My baby askin’ why his daddy don’t love him yet/I swear to God it’s like a bullet to the chest"). Offering up more of herself this go-round, Shawnna shows considerable growth. Maybe now she can finally get some... props.
