Premiere: Video: “So Yesterday” by Toni Braxton featuring Trey Songz
2The original song was signature Toni Braxton. Big vocals, slow beats and sexy undertones. But, in a bid to pump up the hype post-Vegas gig and pre-comeback, the record label attempted to gloss it over with a mid-tempo beat and a guest appearance by R&B hotshot Trey Songz. Well, they thought wrong. Now the song has been watered down too much.

Premiere: Video: “Make Me” by Janet Jackson
1We didn’t think this was strong enough to be a single, but she needs to shift some copies of her new greatest hits compilation Number Ones. The video is all kinds of hotness incorporating everything Janet is known for: great choreography, nice visual, high fashion and that smile. It kind of reminds us of “Scream” with a much lower budget.

Billboard to introduce folk charts
Billboard has finally gotten over some of its archaic charting methods (Catalogue albums, anyone?) and is going to include a 15 spot chart for fold music beginning 2010. This will cater to artists like Ani DiFranco, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez and their fans. This also comes with the revamping of the Billboard 200. It’s still confusing, but better.
