Listen To This: Work! Work! Work!
Filed under: Canadialand > Listen To This
Amy Winhouse wannabe Duffy may be all the rage in the U.K., but she does nothing for us!
Why????
Her voice is nasal and abrasive to our ears!
Miz Jully Black, however, has a vocal quality like butter, reminiscent of India Arie.
Jully's song Seven Day Fool captures beautifully that neo-retro sound that Wino brought back with a vengeance.
The song is delicious!
Enjoy it below and then CLICK HERE to check out some fierce remixes of Seven Day Fool, from Jully Black.

Jully Black is sooooooooooooo wack it ain't even funny
This is good. but as only one person noticed this. Jully Black does an amazing cover on the Etta James song. I only knew this because I want to buy the song and it's not on iTunes yet. Only Etta James's version.
This is a fantastic song! I'm going to find this and buy it! I wish I could add it to my MySpace! Much love from Buffalo to our friends in Toronto…
it's always great to see another one of us doing great!
I agree. This woman has her nose up Ben Mulroney's ass. She is a desperate hack. I wish she would calm down and stop trying so hard to be fabulous. She's average.
Re: Natalie –
Jully is fierce. I saw footage of her workouts. She's like a cool Sherry Shepherd.
Jane & Finch represent!
Awesome track !!!!!
I hate Jully Black but I like this song. It's played all the time on pretty much all the Toronto radio stations
She looks like an ugly ass horse though
THAT is and ETTA JAMES song! And Etta did it betta!
thanks for sharing…love her voice…
Perez, I love you and I love Jully, but I have to say that this song is soooo old.
Still, awesome song and great that you're plugging Canadian artists who deserve some PR. Keep talking about Canada!
LOVE FROM TORONTO!xoxo
BIG UP TO JULLY BLACK!!! Shes some serious talent! And she is such a chill person! And Hilarious!!!!!! BIG UP!!!!
i love how you create a post about dawn richards being a dude & then post this picture of that chick lookn` like she has a dick?! are you fuckn serious?
you're WRONG on Duffy Perez. She's not trying to be Amy Winehouse…she's more Dusty Springfield. She's gonna be BIG here.
perez is only catching onto this NOW? this song has been a hit in Canada for a good 6 months, a little late there perez…
yes! i agree that if perez gets it wrong, he really gets it wrong..DUFFY IS INCREDIBLE like amy and this jully. peace!
I met Jully years ago and some dancers I know are in her video. She is an inspiration for black singers in Canada. There are many talented beautiful black sistas in Canada. But you know the fact that she has made a mark in Canada she had to have worked really hard. I respect her talent and tenacity. Thanks Perez. You know good music. You should run your own label. I think you are already but honestly I think you have a great ear for music.
eww! jullly black is distgusting - she probably makes the worst music in canada (next to simple plan ofcourse). she's a diva with no cause to be. i can't believe this is posted, i'm so dissappointed.
What in hell, Perez, you should not be reviewing music if you could not recognize Seven Day Fool as a cover of the infamous Etta James original.
sweet song
TO ALL THE LADIES
e-mail this to your guys:)
she is very talented. too bad shes so fucking obnoxious and irritating.
OMG, this song is amazing. thanks for posting jully black who is CANADIAN
Perez, I agree with you. Duffy she is shit! She is boring as shithouse!
This chick is much better!
well, the bitch ain't Amy, and tha's for damn sure. She's aight though, except for lookin a bit too much like one of the Williams sisters…
BORING. Duffy is better.
yay jully black!
straight from TORONTO!!!!!!!!!!!!
big up all CANADIANS! (and Torontonians specifically!)
m.
Fuck off. Duffy's awesome.
Loving her voice. She's a stone cold fox!!! Nobody's gonna buy here cause we're too busy giving Ashlee shitting Simpson and her cunt sister two fucking careers for the price of one.
wow! her voice is amazing!!!
Check out Until I Stay. I love it!
Better have a listen 2:
* Sandrine - "I feel the same way" on youtube…
Original & Classy…
YOur only playing this on here now Perez????
This song has been HOT in Canada since last summer!!!!
thanks for supporting , a great Canada's artist , as well shes always been good
Cover or not, old or not, it's a good song. The only people saying bad things are weirdos who are used to listening to GARBAGE liek Shitney Bares. Go back to listening to the no talent FUG that is Shitney and don't make comments on music since you don't know what music is.
And your just hearing about this my miss Perez???
You should be in Canadialand (as you call it) more often…
Thanks for posting about her…though makes me and my city proud…
not to mention my country! =)
I couldn't agree more!!! Im from the UK, but i HATE duffy, her voiuce is so piercing and nasal sounding, its horrible!
I hate to be mean cause I love you Perez. But this song is hella old. We've been playing this at work since way back in December. Now we have the shittiest remix ever that basically ruins the song.
THANKS PEREZ FOR FUTURING JULLY BLACK!!! It was about time that she got some light, this song yes is old but is still a top of the charts in Canada, again THANKS PEREZ, go Jully Black woot!
Jully Black is a wonderfully talented and amazing lady. I had the wonderful opportunity to get a photo with her a year ago at a Songwriter's Circle. Her album Revival is the Bomb! Thanks for featuring a fellow Canadian on your site Perez. Cheers!
You're horrible at being cutting edge. This song has been out FOREVER and so have the remixes. At LEAST a year and a half. She sucks too.
This song is DA BOMB!!! It's about time that the rest of the world is hearing about Jully Black. Thank you Perez for making that possible! It's time for the unveiling of Miss Black around the World!!!
Listen to Duffys album. Its brilliant. I am a brit who loves Amy Winehouse's voice but doesn't agree with her life style. Duffy seems to be keeping her feet on the ground. You rave about Kylie who I also think is an inspiration to people who have had illness but shes not the best singer in the world. Listen to Duffy's alblum and think again!!!
Canadian talent represent!
I'mm abuy her Album
BULLET BULLET!!!
HOT GYAL DEM!
Re: Brae – this song IS on her new CD!
This song is pretty good, butwhy diss Duffy Perez? She is awesome and has alot of fans in the UK, plus shes welsh which makes her even better! theres no need to tell the world u dont like her, keep your dumb opinions 2 urself.
OMG…it's about time people!!! Jully is not only an amazing artist but she is an awesome person. She's deep and real and profoundly talented!!! There isn't one track on the CD that isn't good. And if your listening…track 3 and 8 are my current faves!!!!
Re: wtf perez – thank you! totally agree…..im actually sick of this song since its so old.
aaand this isnt her first song either. jeez.
Does she murder baby seals in her spare time too then?
this song is awfil
i am a canadian and we dont love jully
she is not funny
or talented
happy this song did nothing for her failing carreer here
Don't get me wrong, I love Jully, she's an amazing Canadian talent but I think we need to recognize this is an Etta James song!
Lame! She won't let me add it to my profile!
Jully has ben workin HARD in the industry for years. It's fabulous that she's finaly getting the recognition that she deserves.
Real good look for the homegirl Jully !
Feature more canadian shit
Re: jo –
1st of all much props to Perez for promoting my homegirl Jully! And thanks to all those that have been showing her love!
As for "Jo"(comment # 99)….
Total Lies!!
I don't usually vouch for anybody, but I know Jully personally and that doesn't sound like how she'd conduct herself. If you're gonna be a "hater" like so many other people replying to Perez's post(Although the "Love" she's been getting here outweighs the haters), then come right out and just say that you are, don't create bogus lies. Obviously you weren't at her show at Club Soda in Montreal that SAME weekend, cuz you would never say this wackness, and anybody who was there knows exactly what I mean. If you or your friends are so insecure about your talents, that because she may not have been "congratulating" and co-signing on your lack of talent you feel the need to get offended and spread lies, then it says a lot more about your insecurities. Toughen up your 'skin' already especially if your going on an audition, Canadian Idol Judges are so rude(by the way she is not a judge…she a correspondent), I can't believe you'd chose subject your bitterness to Jully.
Is this message long winded? you bet! And that's the way I like it!
CANADA REPRESENT!!!!!!!! THANKS FOR GIVING JULLY THE EXPOSURE SHE MOST DEFINITELY DESERVES!
I Like it alot!
yeah,t his song is oldish, but good and jully black is so fun. she needs american exposure!
TO MY FELLOW CANADIANS(including the haters) that keep stating the obvious(to Canadians)….YES "Seven Day Fool" has been out since August 2007, and her CD "Revival" has been out since October 2007….IN CANADA, which seems "old" to you people! Yes, we have been fortunate to have it FIRST, but now it's time for the rest of the world to experience it, so chill the heck out!! For example, Amy Winehouse's "Back to black" CD and "Rehab" single were released in the UK SEVERAL Months before it hit the Canada and the U.S.(it hit Canada before the U.S.). Why? because Amy didn't have distribution in the Canada & U.S. anymore because her debut "Frank" album did do well…at all! There was a new deal made…and that's how we finally got it, it's called "Buzz". You know how many UK/international Artists Most of you have NEVER HEARD OF that are HUGE Stars in their territories? Before Kylie Minogue's 2001 "Fever" album, North Americans(except her real fans) had no idea she was hugely success after her 1988 "Locomotion" days. "Pocketful of Sunshine" by Natasha Beddingfield after "Unwritten", was a re-released version of a UK album released MONTHS before. "Robyn"(1997's "Show Me Love" fame) has had 2 #1 singles in the UK/Europe last year that were just released in Canada in January. Leona Lewis' CD came out 2 weeks ago in Canada, been out in the UK for months…but out in the U.S April 15th.
P.S. - to those "Purists" who keep pointing out that "Seven Day Fool" is an Etta James cover…ahhh Duh! Get over it Jully's not the 1st artist to do a "Cover" and will not be the last! Sooooo many Pop and R&B Artists had a cover songs on their CDs in the '90s(and to recent days) - this isn't a new concept! Y'all can chill out too! Jully did an awesome job of covering this song and keeping its integrity. I mean she could have covered "At Last" like everybody else..but that would have been soooo predictable! Sure it's very true to the original, but why she want to change it completely, like so many people make the mistake of doing. Etta James is one of her all time fave singers, so that's why she chose it.
I don't know if this is because I live in Canada, but feature artists sooner! Seven Day Fool has been playing in Canada for what seems like years now. Jully Black's been famous forever here. Thanks for giving her exposure, but uppen the pace a little.
i loooove it yay
This song came out a while ago here in Canada, but now y'all have the pleasure of listening to it. Thanks, Perez, your taste, as always, is great.
I heard this song like months and months ago. Very good song tho and glad you featured it.
THANKS FOR FEATURING OUR CANADIAN GIRL JULLY BLACK!! LOVE HER!!!
hey perez!! if you like this song you should hear until i stay…i heard a radio remix and i love it!!….
perez are you fucking retarded? jully black's been around for-fucking-ever. where've you been, man? under a rock?
Yeah, Toronto power! As all the other fellow Canadians have pointed out this song certainly isn't new (for us), but it's great to see quality Canadian artists getting airplay in the U.S. Keep up the good work exposing Canadian talent to the world Perez!
Jully Black spoke at my high school in Toronto three years ago about downloading music illegally. Not only was she abrasive and arrogant the entire time, she verbally attacked a girl who respectfully stated that she supports artists but that she doesn't "want to pay for Britney and K-Fed's wedding." Jully Black's response was that maybe she should save her money to "buy a shirt that doesn't show so much cleavage." The majority of the audience walked out, and several people threw pennies and nickels at her, because she stated that she only makes $.7 an album- which was later proven untrue. Our high school invited a record executive afterwards to make ammends, and to apologize to the students.
Jully Black, no one cares that you were the youngest of nine, and that you had a single mother. You're from Jane and Finch, most likely on welfare your whole life, and the fact your mother was really fertile and slutty doesn't legitimize your career or your efforts to suck your way to the top.
The ability to respect strangers, to hold oneself with a modicum of dignity, to present your music with a good character as opposed to forced aggression, to buttress your argument while still being open to the opposing side- these attributes trump the ability to croon a song made famous by a better woman.
You are truly a seven-day-fool.
Re: na –
You have a lot of confidence online…
To take it to dissing her Mother and upbringing is a bit far… All and all, Jully keep your head up. This person obviously needs Jesus!
Ms. Jully Black…It's about time Perez…This lady is heaven…I had the pleasure of hearing her sing live once and it was AMAZING brought tears to my eyes…her voice can not be compared…she is the epitomy of what a singer should be…Amazing on disc and AMAZING in life…this song is one of many wicked songs she has to offer and to stop only at this song would be a crime to music…her songs are beautiful her songs are fun…she surely makes Canadians proud…the world needs to hear Ms. Jully Black because they are mising out on something incredible…SHE IS MUSIC…B
Listen to her newest single "until i stay" both the original and remix are AMAZING!! THANKS FOR SUPPORTING OUR CANADIAN GIRLS PEREZ!!!
Holla! This song is great! It was a hit in Canada agggess ago though. Jully's awesome anyways; she's one of Canada's best female singers. It's about time the girl got some exposure south of the border.
I don't know about this 7 day fool song……….I ain't a slave for any man and I'm dissapointed Jully sings this degrading song!
Perez! Jully Black is THE BEST artist, I'm so glad you finally found her. You should also post her song… "DJ won't you play my song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
She's a good singer but COME ON this is JUST A COVER. Yes she can sing but for a couple of years now she's been ALL OVER everything MTV Canada. It's like she was pushed down our throats and for what???? A COVER. *sigh* Corporate music sucks!!! Stick to the Indies Perez. I'll respect your choices more.
Jully's my girl!
I had the pleasure of working for her for about a year. She's quite the lady!
Great voice, Amazing personality, SO caring.
FREAKIN' HILARIOUS!!
Love her to bits!
Much love, Jules!
Wow I love how ridiculously old this song is….oooh Perez! Hahaha at least Jully is finally getting the exposure she deserves
But I have to say, Duffy is amazing too…but Adele still holds my heart!

long live July Black, who has been an inspiration to those in her old stomping grounds in TO's east end!!

i thought it was a man singing. can't compare with duffy, sorry.
Although I absolutely love jully black and this song, why are you now featuring a song that has been out for what..2 years? At least a year…I thought Perez Hilton was to showcase new news and music, not something that has been played out already…

Why are Canadians so self conscious about being Canadian? Do they have to remind us every five minutes when someone famous is Canadian? Do they think we give a fig?
