Rihanna will be among the guest to appear on The Oprah Winfrey Show‘s Haiti special. Rihanna will cover a Bob Marley classic, “Redemption Song,” for the show. She will be accompanied by Haitian American Wyclef Jean from the Fugees and neasoul star Maxwell who will sing his song “Fistful of Tears.” The show will focus of charity and donations.
Seriously, we have no sympathy for Jay Leno and what he has done. His little diplomacy scheme to kick Conan O’Brien out, to weasel himself into something he had already promised to give. It just shows how inconsiderate and ultimately arrogant he is. Anyway, Conan is the voice of a new generation and NBC would be doing wrong to bring the old dog and the old tricks all at once.
You guys, we are not kidding, but this is the 4th (Yes, fourth!) video Erik Hassle has made for his single “Hurtful.” Check out the three others. We don’t get why he needs so many, expecially when the original one is so good. This one is a very futuristic airbrushed high-octane ordeal. Well, as long as he gets some attention for his superior album, then that’d good! By the way, it’s pronounced Hass-lay not “Hassle,” like the English word.
Chaining Norwegian rent boys to walls aside, Boy George is a pretty good musician. Whether he is with his band The Culture Club or solo, he’s always managed to churn up some good quality tunes like “The Crying Game,” “Karma Chameleon” and “Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?” We also loved his album U Can Never B2 Straight with the Spanish-tinted song “She Was Never He.” Anyway, he’s back now to full glam dance with this collaboration with fado singer Ana Lains.
The whole American football theme is not really my bag, but Alexandra’s personality makes up for it.
Janet Jackson is doing all the promo she can to sell her greatest hits package titled Number Ones in the US and The Best in other place. It contains one new track, which is not going to draw in many people. So, she needs to put it out there. She’s not looking too good nowadays, her attire is too conservative. Her wardrobe needs a revamp or, maybe, another malfunction? You decide.
He initially made a name for himself pre-Perez signing with this viral youtube sensation, so it comes as no surprise that they are using it to get his name across. They better retool Paint Your Face if they want to make waves. Some songs on their are up to par others are just a no-no.
It looks like her best video ever. She’s overdoing it with the drama as usual, but it looks modern and well-made. In some of the frames she actually looks good.
Not exactly the type of song we were anticipating to be the opener of Rihanna’s comeback album. Especially after all the drama. She should came out with a big perseverance number a la “I Will Survive.” It’s actually kind of annoying with it’s repetition and her voice. Still, we are sure Rated R has bigger and better numbers.
Toni Braxton is “for real for real” about this new single and it’s not just another leak that will never surface on a release. “Yesterday” is the first single from her long-awaited and very-late Pulse. She’s already filmed it. The release date for her album is 2nd of February, 2010. So, expect the single and the dance remixes to be out sometime December, or, if she decides to do two single before, sometime now.
Anjulie’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.
