This is the official cover to Sanjaya’s Dancing To The Music In My Head EP. What a horrible little cover! The background, the hair brush back action, the typeface.  It’s so bad, it’s good. I don’t know what career he is veering towards, but this will only be OK in the tween demographic. Just OK. Miley Cyrus would barf if she saw that during her Hannah Montana-ness. The typeface!

SiA to come to Europe…

M.I.A. was just talking retirement when her single “Paper Planes” made it big because of some rap sample in the US and now she is back in the game.

Right now, anything from M.I.A. is worthy of multiple spins. Talks of a third album are surfacing now.

Layout 1It’s called Boombox and it’s a collection of remixes from the post-2000 singles. It also includes a new song, which the album borrows its name from. I hope it’s a lush single with a video. The cover is great fun and I am sure it is going to be a stomper. It’s will be available next month. I didn’t expect it to be so soon. Click below for the track list.
