Jagged Edge Launch Web Series “Road To ‘The Remedy’”

One of my favorite groups of all time is back with The Remedy and have a web series so that you can follow their journey. In the webisodes, the quartet will give you an inside look into their life as their prepare to release this new album on September 28th. They will feature behind the scenes of video/photo shoots, life on the road, viewer Q&A’s, and label interaction. Check out episode 1:

I like the new single “Lay You Down.” Often times artists get lost trying to stay relevant and doing trendy music instead of timeless music. To me, their last 2 albums reflected more trends, but it looks like they are back to their roots with this new single. It’s Produced by Cool & Dre who said:

“It was an honor working with Jagged Edge. They are one of the few classic R & B groups still standing strong. With “Lay you down” we wanted to capture that signature Jagged Edge sound but give it a 2010 feel with the Cool and Dre touch. The guys put crazy lyrics on it and a classic was born.”

When JE were asked about the record:

“We sing our ballads straight from the heart, no pen no paper we just let it flow, this song is where we been and where we going. So I know the fans will love this one. The new sound is still very much jagged edge for the diehard fan, just sped up a lil.”

Let’s just hope they sick with this formula and not that bubble gum mess that was that terrible first single “Tip of my Tongue.”
