Rate The “New” Keyshia Cole (With 2Pac)
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Atlanta R&B singer Keyshia Cole has “teamed up” with late rapper-actor Tupac Shakur for a new single called “Playa Cardz Right”.
It actually was on the 2006 2Pac CD “Pac’s Life,” but was never released as a single. Cole reportedly went back into the studio to update it, and plans to include it on her upcoming third album.
Hear it in the YouTube video BELOW, and tell us what you think.

Last week it was Janet Jackson all week long, now look — Day 2 of more Alan Jackson news.
CMT has announced that it will honor the Newnan native (who performed in Atlanta this past weekend — see photo gallery HERE )as its next “Giant” Oct. 30 in Nashville.
The 90-minute special, “CMT Giants: Alan Jackson” will be taped in front of a live audience that night at the legendary Ryman Auditorium. George Strait, Brad Paisley, Taylor Swift, Dierks Bentley, Lee Ann Womack and Miranda Lambert will help pay tribute to Jackson. And tickets go on sale at www.ticketmaster.com this Saturday.
Jackson — the most nominated artist in CMA history — joins Reba McEntire and Hank Williams Jr. in the two-year-old “CMT Giants” franchise. Who do you think should be next? Of Jackson’s 33 No. 1 singles, which ones do you think the featured artists would perform well - and which ones should only Jackson sing?
