Official cover art of Britney Spears’ “Till The World Ends”

This is more like it and it the font works better with this motif. Something tells me that “Till The World Ends” is not as big of a dance song as “Hold It Against Me” because of its love song lyrics. But, all is good from the camp of Britney and we are willing to give it a clean-slate unabashed pop-love listen.

Official cover art from Christina Aguilera’s single “You Lost Me”

Christina Aguilera has finalized the decision to release the SiA-penned ballad as her second single in a bid to save her album from completely tanking. If there is one song that is to be salvaged from the mess that is Bionic it’s “You Lost Me.” Not to sure how a ballad will function these days’ charts, but it’s better than anything else she has.

Official single cover for Beyonce and Alicia Keys’ “Put It In A Love Song”

Alicia Keys didn’t do a photoshoot with buddy Beyonce for the cover of their duet. So, we are stuck with this tired old artwork for “Put It In A Love Song,” which will probably be over-played and over-appreciated this spring so get to memorizing it.

Exclusive: Mariah Carey debuts “Obsessed”

mc-obsessed

I just listened to Mariah’s “Obsessed” on the first radio station to debut it – Chicago B96. It’s in the same vain as “Touch My Body,” except it is lower tempo and has fiercer lyrics. It will impact radio just fine and should sell. The release of the album has been pushed to the earlier date of 25th August. This is almost the first time a Mariah album gets this treatment. Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel seems like it is ready to go and they must be confident about it. Listen to it by licking below:

Must-Watch: Video: “Miles Away” by Madonna

So the grand old bitch decided that her true source of income is touring since her album are not selling anything at all when it comes to albums and single. But, she has to justify the fact that she extended her tour. So, why not go around the wanting world promoting a single that not only has has some radio airplay and remix releases, but also received the cheapest ass video in her entire career. I mean, she tapped into her fame. She doesn’t need to make lavish videos anymore. The greed has made the greatest video artist alive create such a hot unforgivable mess. Look it at, does it look like the workings of a legend?

What happened to Naked Music?

tonsonde-nakedThe record label that was persistent on delivering luscious and rich dance music fused perfectly with downtempo soul sounds seems t have disappeared. Other then some remixes or compilations poping out here and there, there isn’t much activity from Miguel Migs and Co. The remixer last effort was Those Things and Blue Six haven’t showed their face in a while. Gaelle is nowhere to be found and Aya has apparently turned into an actress. Naked Music has managed to revive and revamp dance music and introduce it as a sultry and sexy brand, straying away from the rigid deep house fanatics. Let’s hope we’ll from them soon.

She is taking this double-A side thing seriously. As if she was the first one to invent that. This is another $5 video for a lackluster song that will be the bane of every adult contemporary lover. It’s not “Irreplaceable,” it’s not even “Me, Myself & I.” The only song I like from the whole Sasha Fierce bonanza is “Radio” and I have a feeling it’s too staccato for actual radio. Although the lyrics are a bit kiss-ass. Watch this rise because of the banji girl demographic.
