I've been vaguely mentioning this on the blog for the past few weeks but I'm working with Bleu Magazine. Bleu is a lifestyle magazine targeted towards urban gay men. It's a great magazine that I really believe in. Check it out, it's on newsstands around the country. Anyway, I was assigned to cover the listening session for Lyfe Jennings new album "Lyfe Change" at the Sony Records Building here in New York.

The session was held at the Sony Club on the 35th floor of the building. The room was beautiful, the walls covered with rich dark wood and floor to ceiling windows with a jaw dropping westward view of Midtown Manhattan. The hors d'oeuvers, passed around by servers clad in black suits were scrumptious, as were the cocktails and wine.

As I sat among the other journalists from other publications waiting for the session to start, Lyfe Jennings himself walked into the room. He headed to the front of the room, turned on the stereo and started proudly playing cuts from his new album. I can't give you guys any details of course as the full story will appear on the Bleu website. But what I can tell you is that Lyfe is a great guy, very down to Earth and passionate about his music. Even though this is his third album he still possesses a hunger that many new artists don't even have. He was really interested in what we had to say, even the criticisms. Which weren't many because the album is excellent.

Once again, be sure to check out Bleu Magazine's website, get yourself a subscription and be sure to add the magazine as a friend on MySpace.
