Most would agree most popular artists out there have something truly special to give to their fans. This goes above the typical attributes like raw talent, amazing songs, nice voice, or even a very marketable look, sound and image. There's something truly infectious at the core of these artists that simply makes us feel good when we listen to them. Whatever "it" is - they all seem to have "it".

Today I listened to the latest singles from New Jersey based singer/songwriter Myles Marcus When Im with You and Haunting Me (2012) (POPCORE Ent.) These latest songs feature production expertise from the likes of Roy Hamilton III (RH3) and Frank Dona. Venturing to his website it's clearly shows this is one artist thats generating quite a buzz regionally around his music. From start to finish these 2 new singles deliver the goods! Both have a solid Modern-Dance quality to them and even dabble in Hip-Hop, Rap and Modern Power Pop. Any fans of any of these musical styles will enjoy these latest releases from Marcus. It's clearly marketed for those who like a male front with a mystique of say a Justin Timberlake, Chris Brown and The Jonas Brothers. I get the impression Marcus is rolling with what he knows as a performer. He even has the vocal ability possessed by other top flight artists within this genera. He is a capable singer-songwriter and has the youthful look and sound. Both tracks have an amazing feel to them and will have you running to the dance floor like a Lemming.

At 4 minutes and some heavy change Haunting Me is a bit long for a single. I say get rid of the Rap segment and you got yourself a winner. I wouldnt change a thing about When Im with You Amazing.

I see Marcus as a real contender. As time goes by we will see how it all plays out. But I will say so far he has made some good moves by surrounding himself with some premier Production folk. This typically will lead to bigger and better things in his attempt to bring more fans into the fold. I am eager to hear and see what the future holds for Marcus. In close most famous artists out there have 'it' I'm not so sure what it but the new single by Myles Marcus definitely has whatever 'it' may be.
