Matt Pokora's 3rd album MP3 hits stores today. With production by JR Rotem, The Bionix, Jim Beanz, Hannon Lane, and Timbaland it's defintiely worth picking up. Here are the full of the MMG crew's tracks:
"Like A Criminal" (produced by Timbaland, co-produced by Hannon Lane, vocal production Jim Beanz)
"Catch Me If You Can" (produced by Timbaland, co-produced by Hannon Lane, vocal production Jim Beanz)
"No Me Without U" (produced by Timbaland, co-produced by Hannon Lane, vocal production Jim Beanz)
"Why Do You Cry" (produced, written and vocal production Jim Beanz)
We're all familiar with "Dangerous" by now right? (produced by Timbaland, co-produced by Hannon Lane, vocal production Jim Beanz)
I like the album and it was well worth my money to pick up. It definitely has great production, the usual top notched vocals from Beanz, and those added touches that should help Pokora cross over into the U.S. market. Keep being on the lookout for more Hannon, he's defintiely getting his name out more and more.
Your thoughts?

It's actually a very solid album, which some of us didn't expect because french peeps in particular seem to not like him very much...
ReplyDeleteThere's only a few tracks I'm not really feeling, my favs are "Catch Me If You Can", "No Me Without U" and "Why Do You Cry"... it's nice to see Hannon and Beanz spreading their wings as producers now.
Even The Bionix (never heard of them till now) provided good heat; albeit in a old-Tim-style-biting fashion but heat is heat regardless. Overall its a nice album!
I was definitely convinced that "Why Do You Cry ?" was Hannon/Timbo when I started playing it last week... Beanz stepped his game up.
ReplyDelete& where'd you manage to pick this one up, Boogie?
The album is average, production is too. I don't understand why is everybody so excited about it. Nothing innovative and creative (imho).
ReplyDeleteits good mate but i agree tims beats is average at best. i guess you cant be top notch all the time unless timbo is in his experimental mood trying to cook up some innovative sounds
ReplyDeleteboooooring...
ReplyDeleteGot this album retail version about week ago. Anyone post HQ plz!
ReplyDeleteI think it's very nice album. The obvious ones Catch Me If You Can and Why Do U Cry is very emotional. Internatiolude very stylish. Like A Criminal solid track. No Me Without You very catchy beat with nice chorus.
Other tracks to look out for is Forbidden Drive...pretty sick track i u like this sort of music. The french track has nice beat too.
So overall happy with album :)
These are definitely solid tracks but none of them really jump out at me. Obviously no "oh shit" Timbo production.
ReplyDeletevery good album. catch me if u can and why do u cry... SICK tracks. its all about Beanz for this album...
ReplyDeletehow can i download these songs??? i cant find the songs or the album any where!!
ReplyDeletesorry but dude cant sing........top notch production beats are fire........but dude cant sing......all that money to make an album for a dude who cant sing........i know jim beans had to really do some magic hear
ReplyDeletelikin that commodore sample in "Like A Criminal"
ReplyDeleteThe best song is the one by JR, Treason
ReplyDeleteThe Timbo tracks are pretty weak
This album doesn't worth even a download. Let's be honest people, Timbo gave beats to the dude that no one wanted in the US or that he did while he was sleeping. The other problem is that i understand the "lyrics" in french and this is boring...I just hope that Timbo sucks all the money off of him so he can't put out another album. It's mean i know but hey! that's life.
ReplyDeleteI love this Album, Treason is my fav. But i love Catch me If You Can,Like A Criminal, Climax,Internatiolude, Forbiden Drive,Toyko Gril...I really hope he finds some Success in the US.
ReplyDeleteCatch Me samples Missy! :-D
ReplyDelete^ What song does Catch me Sample.
ReplyDeleteHannon Lane Produced this album obviously, I mean come on guys Hannon has been Tim's understudy for the past 5,6 years now, he has well developed his own sound...and I dig it, always have! Danja & Hannon Lane taking over 2008!!!
ReplyDeleteLovin Why do you cry by beanz and some of the tracks are col but dude cant sing to save his life. i would say jim beanz saved dude with his magic on the vocal production, otherwise he is not vocally strong but they made him to sound the best he could.
ReplyDeleteMatt aka mad boring! production is average too
ReplyDeleteawesome album! :-)
ReplyDeleteim gonna buy it tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI think this album is pretty whack. Even Timbaland's contributions are pretty rubbish. But I LOVE "No me without U". I have that shit on repeat. It's the only song on the album I think is wholly decent.
ReplyDeletecan someone plz rip like a criminal for me?
ReplyDeletewhere can i buy the ablum in the US?
ReplyDeleteI do not understand Timbaland, why was there an altered voice m pokora. is the only Timbaland production or voice is altered.
ReplyDeleterothem Jr., Ryan Leslie, Bionix ... his voice is not retouched.
m pokora a voice skinned, bass, a good voice. Why retouched?
live no me whitout you is a wonderful acoustic version, the voice m pokora adapts well.
to cry or why do the same thing live its great without the beat.
for me the best collaboration is Ryan Leslie.
