Must-Watch: Video Premiere: “Smoke & Mirrors” by Paloma Faith
1It seems that Paloma Faith is still not off her promotional quest for her debut album Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful? This is the fifth single from that album, which you don’t see in the new music sphere. However, don’t let that drag you down for hopes of a new album as this is merely a single and she is also recording hard in the studio. Still, she expressed fear that she might be dropped due to record company losses. Say it isn’t so!

Yes, the day has come when we celebrate what we have achieved. Loft965.com started out as a little portal for us to vent out our beats, lifestyle and some humor. It was intended to be for a global audience but we never imagined to get the numbers that we are reaching nowadays.
The opportunities that this blog has bestowed upon us are countless and we are thankful for it. We managed to create a safe space for many people regionally and give our journalistic angle on my things music and much more. We now have de facto affiliation with the music industry and we love it. Keep the free music, concert tickets, pop interviews, press releases, promo gifts and all the other offers coming. Also, don’t hesitate to leave us a comment, tweet us, email us or drop us a message. We plan on introducing some great advancements in our third year and hope to relaunch the loft on a stronger platform.
The power behind the machine is of course the visitors who continue to impress us with their persistence and their love for the blog that came to be Loft965.com. Much love to you and we always hear your opinions and recommendations.

Video Premiere: “Rose Colored Glasses” by Kelly Rowland
Kelly Rowland is back with her second single after her album was postponed and renamed. The soon-to-be diva has opted for a slower number after the high octane first single that rules the summer “Commander.” This is not really our cup of tea, but we could see some sexy remixes coming out of it.
