This is actually quite a cute version.

John Mayer’s muchly-awaited new album has been leaked. Yes, the entire Battle Studies album. It’s his fourth album and it was supposed to be out on November 17th. He said about it: “The album is called Battle Studies and that’s because it incorporates a lot of the lessons, a lot of the observations, and a little bit of advice. Like a handbook, like a heartbreak handbook.”

It’s the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, #fotw
It’s only been two decades since the jeers of the Berlin Wall falling occured targetting the reunification of modern-day Germany and causing a domino effect in the Eastern Bloc states from soviet shackles. It seems that 20 years is a lot of time for change. In it, Germany went from a fragmented country to a world power, again. This time more on an economic basis and less on military capabilities. And ever since, Eastern states like Poland and the Czech Republic rid themselves of oppression and misguided communism. At any rate, it’s a good to celebrate. A foundation has opted to write any tweet one precedes with “#fotw” on the wall. Ask for other walls to fall. Like the West Bank Barrier or other borders that limit and steal freedoms from people.

Must-Watch: Video: “Wish U Were Here” by Radio Ink
1Radio Ink has some great dance beats. It’s kind of a cross between Light Years-era Kylie Minogue and early Basement Jaxx. The video is also a good time. The choreography could use a little help, though.

Mariah Carey working with Beyonce for remix album
4
This hasn’t been talked about much. But, guessing from the new remix track listing of Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel that has leaked, Mariah Carey is actually working with Beyonce Knowles on a remix of her track “It’s A Wrap.” Beyonce has always been a big fan of Mariah’s and Mariah is also always extremely nice when asked about Beyonce. Moreover, they are friends and they have been seen to party together. There have been many rumors about the collaborators for the album, but it seemed like “It’s A Wrap” wasn’t getting any love. Now, we know, that the greatest collaboration is at hand. We hope this gets released as a single.
