Music Fab: Bri From The Real World: Hollywood & Anthony David

Jun 16 | by Natasha

Because YBF likes fresh faces on the music scene...

This season of The Real World: Hollywood is the first season I've watched since RW Vegas several years ago. And that's because it was ultra whack until now. And, unlike other seasons, they have mad black folks on this season who aren't the typical stereotypes MTV likes to push. The house is even getting two additional YBF people now that Greg and Joey are gone. Anyways, one of the housemates, Brianna Taylor (Bri), came on the show to land a singing career (instead of continuing her stripper career back home in Philly) and it looks like she finally got off the couch and made an album. She surprisingly sounded like she had some talent when she sings on the show every now and then, but you can check out one of her tracks that I actually like called "Summertime": [audio:bri.mp3] You can also check out some of her other songs on her myspace page. More pics and Anthony David news when you read the rest...

Check out semi-newcomer Anthony David's video for his track "Words" with India.Arie:

His album Acey-Duecy drops next week on the 24th. The Randomness:

Kanye got boo'd at Bonnaroo fest this weekend for being hella late to hit the stage. He came on around 4:30a. But it really wasn't all his fault.

Anthony David's voice

Anthony David's voice straight gives me goose bumps. It has so much body. I love, love, love that song. He is so talented. I mos def will cop his cd when it drops. Brianna's voice is full and sounds nice. Her image needs a boost.

I could care less about Bri... BUT Anthony David is EXTREMELY talented, I really wish more people would check him out, I had his first 2 albums when he was independent, so I'm hoping he'll finally get the success he deserves.

I just saw Anthony David amongst other neo soul cats this past weekend in Dallas for the 3 day I GOT SOUL conference. Anthony seems really talented and actually performed his song WORDS for us at the Brooklyn Jazz Cafe sans India.

I like it. It has a Nora Jones feel to it plus I like her personality on the show. She has a lot of growing to do but she is not judgemental and she is not trying to be something she is not.

Anthony David is NOT NEW he's new to getting play. India Arie is bringing YOUR attention to it that's all. The album has been out for a while (I like it, I like his voice).

If you don't listen to her song, then how do you come to the conclusion that she doesn't have talent? Just wondering.

I sort liked the first 2

I sort liked the first 2 minutes of the song and then she went off the boards for real. Too much guitar, song was not mixed well but maybe its the demo version, can't imagine they let it on a cd like that... Anything to keep another former drug addicted sistah off the pole....sing girl...SING!

I think the braids add too

I think the braids add too her idividual style. She looks like no one else. I think she sounds good, because its not R&B soul doesn't make it bad. I think ya'll want her to go for what's typical (even though you complain over and over about people being typical) People love to hate when people who went from being the average to being famous have a chance of making it big.

I like Bri's sog. Sure her hair isnt that great, but not everyone's hair is always in tip top shape. I'm sure when she "gets her money right" she will get that taken care of. All the best of luck to her!

She needs to shave it off and start over. Also I hate her clothes for teh club... they look like a Lady of the Night Stripper addition attire. But I love her personality best of all- just not critical and very caring but not when it came to Joey.

Every time I watch Real World, and I think about is how much I hate them damn braids (AND HOW IRRITATING GREG IS)! Its not so much the style, so much as the fact that they blend into her skin tone ans it look crazy!

hahaha...i noticed that too!

hahaha...i noticed that too! i'mma give the girl props for getting off of the couch and trying to stay off of the pole. her vocals aren't great but they're not bad; she's much better than cassie or rhianna. she just needs a fab team behind her to "clean up" her image. oh...but if she wants to go to platinum....she might have to take some lessons from erykah badu and get "on that hoe ish!" lol. (i thought badu's commentary was hilarity at it's finest!)

okay...i was responding to

okay...i was responding to the post where someone mentioned that she used dirty hair to re-braid her edges. yes...that was tacky. and i'm stumped trying to figure out her nationality, too. i'm thinking shes albino. but i think i heard her mention being latina on one episode? not too sure...but her mother sounds 'black' when they speak on the phone...if one can really sound black. hell...i'm told i sound like a white girl and i've seen the jaws of a few potential employers drop once i walked through the door. but whatev....i digress. best of luck to her ♥
