Shakira is already on her second single even if the album’s been pushed back until November 23rd. “She Wolf” is exactly what happens when one has a lot of star power but not a good lead-single. A memorable video and dance, but a tired old disco knock-0ff. This one’s a bit better, but “Gypsy” should have been next in line. Say what you want, but one thing’s for sure – the girl’s flexible.

We know that Alicia Keys had something up her sleeve when she released her first single from The Element Of Freedom. it sounded mediocre and it is not what we expect from soulstress Alicia. She has hidden this new single. One of the best tracks of the year on first listen. “Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart” is an impeccable mid-tempo moody number that should hold the #1 spot if there’s any justice. It’s truly a gem.
Video: “Chasing Pirates” by Norah Jones
2She’s going for a new sound and a new direction. “Chasing Pirates” doesn’t stand out like soar thumb from her previous releases, but it is definitely different. She’s trying to deliver a more contemporary sound that’s less jazzy. Her vocals are up to par, we hope there’ more form The Fall.

Shakira wins the award for being the least scantily-clad female to cover the aging rag that is Rolling Stone magazine. She Wolf has been pushed back and, at first, we abhorred it. Now, we like a couple of tracks.
Video: “Love Songs” by Anjulie
1Anjulie’s new album is growing on us fast. It incorporates the dance that she introduced herself with when she released her debut “Boom.” But, in an unpredictable turn, Anjulie brings in some hot summer breeze beats that are more lounge than club. Of course, they are all ready for remixes.
