RANDOM: "I MISS U" NEXT SINGLE?

Hey #Ryders! This has NOT been confirmed. This is simply a post about me and my suspicions and research via twitter and other social media outlets. Over the past couple days, namely on last week I saw word of Keshia's song "I Miss U", #10 on Night & Day and also produced by Vic Park announced by radio station 97.3The Wave. Then on today, mysteriously the instrumental leaks to twitter...

Here is why I think Keshia and her label, as well as radio should go with "If U Say" vs "I Miss U"

• Initially "If U Say" was supposed to be the fourth single after "Set U Free", which totally screwed up the marketing plan when it was scrapped last fall for yet another dance single, "Shooting Star"
• Keshia's been on several "Night & Day" promo stops performing "If U Say" already (UniCommunity Tour, Breakfast TV, Canada AM) and thus her fan base in general will receive it and request it because it's been noted internet-wide as a "fan favorite". 

The most logical move in the era would be for KC to release "If U Say" vs "I Miss U" as a single, while a nice, song and single worthy, right now to me wouldn't be the best time to release it.

"If U Say" has already gotten an establish buzz via Singersroom.com with a exceptional feedback on every blog and or website it's been posted on. Why not go with the flow of the fans and what the general public is showing you?

Tack on "Hang My Jersey Up" as the B-Side to that single and she'll be a shoe in for MMVA's this year and Junos 2013, if they come through with a logical and sensible video treatment. Tweet what you think @luvkcfansite we wanna hear from you!

KC QUICK NEWS: NEW SINGLE + HONORABLE MENTION + NEW TWITPICS

Hey #KCRyders! All has been remotely quiet in KC-Land however we do have bits and pieces of information to share. So read below to see just what we found:


 New Twitpics
To help tide us over somewhat while we wait for news on Keshia's next single, we've got twitpics.
Keshia posted a couple of twitpics over the last few days from her Night + Day promo tour on last year via her Facebook + Twitter pages.

 Fellow Chicago Blackhawks lady, makeup artist + hairstylist, Elina Casell (@ElinaCasell) and boyfriend to one of the players tweeted a pic of her and our girl KC supporting their hockey playing boyfriends on last night at one of the latest games, which you can view below.

KC tweeted two pics of herself from last years "Night + Day" promo trail across Canada. The first is from Fashion TV and she tweeted that she was wearing  Lucian Matis. The second one is from ETalkTV.

Honorable Mention

Keshia's team twitted a new article in which Keshia ranked at #14 for Bleacher Report's Hottest Hockey Wives + Girlfriends of 2011. You can view the article by clicking here.

KC's New Single

Apparently KC's labels have done the right thing like Spike Lee, and scrapped the previous single "Edit, Cut, + Delete U" and are now replacing it with a VicPark single!

One half of the production team, Levi, tweeted this yesterday:

@KeshiaChante Keeshy its almost go time!!! #Akrivos

Now for those of you who've gotten the album already, you know that VicPark & Keshia have six songs together on the "Night + Day" album. I actually believe that "Jersey" and "If U Say" are Keshia's next singles. As much as we as #KCRyders hit her and her label up about them on her social networking sites, it'd be a shame not to listen because we're telling them in black and white what we'll support.  Thus, this leads to my discovery. About  a month or so ago, I discovered via #KCRyder  Malcom aka (@malblue5) tweeted to me & a few other LKC members that the blog for R+B musicians, Singersroom.com uploaded two of Keshia's newest songs from her album, that being "Hang My Jersey Up ft. PReign" and "If U Say". Singersroom said, and I quote,

"Keshia Chante's new single "Hang My Jersey Up" is about "Guys always say I'm a player, but I met one that made me want to stop the games, retire my jersey!" The record is featured on her new album 'Night & Day.'

Note: [If you haven't gotten it yet, "Night & Day" is available worldwide online at these outlets: Itunes.com, Itunes.ca, Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Amazon.mp3 and KeshiaChante.com. It's also currently available for purchase in stores across Canada.]

KC & VicPark's wrap up of 'If U Say'
After hard day at work in the studio, Keshia and the INCREDIBLE production team VicPark just put the finishing touches on her next single 'If U Say'. The producers and Keshia were just being silly once the studio session was done, it showed us a side of KC and VicPark that was very much fun. It wasn't serious or ego-driven, just positive vibes all the way! That is where the smash singles come in! Not when you have an award-winning producer and songwriter working with you but when you have a good time recording the song and have producers that are going to collaborate with the artist. Along with the right promo, 'If U Say' will be a SMASH without a doubt! Check it Out!


Behind the Scenes at MuchMusic
Right after her work with CANFAR was done, Keshia stopped by Much Music and New Music Live to discuss her work with CANFAR, the new album, etc. This is a Behind the Scenes look at her before she went live on Television with the interviews. You will see her getting ready for her interviews, being silly and just have fun both on and off the camera! You can even hear a snippet of her single 'Set U Free' throughout the video! Take a Peak at it!

FIRST LOOK: Set U Free/If U Say Single Cover

Introducing the official single cover for Keshia's next two singles, 'Set U Free' and 'If U Say'! How's that for a Valentine's Day gift KC fans? Keshia gifted her fans the single cover shot by Rayan Studios a few hours ago, and it looks absolutely stunning! According to Keshia, the single 'Set U Free' is an upbeat club number similar to the sounds of KC's Candaian hit, 'Table Dancer' and penned by none other than Taio Cruz, with vintage Janet Jackson influences. 'If U Say' is a great heartfelt ballad that Keshia penned herself and produced by the hitmakers VicPark,  which Keshia debuted on her Ustream last year on World Aids Day. The final version of this single has been revamped with new vocals. Also, Keshia stated via twitter that she and the team are working hard to re-open her official website KeshiaChante.Com later on this week. Stay tuned for more updates coming your way.
