The extremely talented M.I.A is set to release the Bad Girls Remixes EP, and this is the first leak off of it. It features the legendary Missy Elliott and Rye Rye, remixed by Switch. I don’t really have to say anything at all about this track, the features and production credits explain it all. It’s absolutely genius, I need more M.I.A music in my life. Take a listen via Sharebeast for now until I figure out how to upload a copy to the site!
Track Here
After releasing her first solo single ‘I Don’t Like You‘, she comes back with the new dubstep inspired track ‘Renegade’. As for right now, Renegade is definitely not as good as ‘I Don’t Like You’, but it might grow on me. She definitely has some serious talent, and she fits perfectly over the electronic/dance genre. I would like to see what she has on her own, and see if she can hold down her own live performance especially with the type of vocals I’m hearing off of these tracks she has been releasing.
Definitely one of the most underrated artists of our generation, Melanie Fiona releases her next video for the J. Cole assisted track. I love Melanie Fiona, always have, always will, she is so different and pretty much anyone who appreciates the art of music will tell you how underrated she is. Such a talent, she will get her recognition in due time.
The ever popular Maroon 5, are back with a new track off their upcoming album, Overexposed. Now the past 2 releases have been either hit or miss, I’m definitely not a fan of ‘Payphone’ and I was a fan of ‘Moves Like Jagger’ until it got played out, now I can’t stand it. This track, as of right now, is definitely a complete success. They have ditched the more alternative rock sounding vibe, and even got without a proper chorus for the track. I love this track, and so far this is my favorite track that I have heard so far. Lets hope this continues!
Listen Below!
Most of you may know Mika through his single ‘Grace Kelly’, and now he is back with ‘Celebrate’ featuring Pharrell. He keeps the same sound on this track that he has in the past, sort of an upbeat pop sound. I love this track, and I have loved his previous 2 releases off his new album, Origin of Love. I can’t wait to see what other tracks this guy releases.
Check out the track below!
Nina Sky is back with their 2nd single off their second album, Nicole & Natalie due out the end of July. This is a more upbeat song than we have recently heard, but when I say upbeat, I don’t mean ‘Move Your Body’ upbeat, its more of a trance feel, and I have to say is awesome! I love this new sound and feel they have going and they haven’t done any wrong yet, so I’m anticipating this new album to be amazing!

Azealia Banks is on a role with her releases, as he releases visuals for her single ‘Liquorice’. As you know by know, I love everything about her, so this just adds to the list, even if the video doesn’t really have anything going for it, I still think she is one of the few out there doing her own thing, and not falling into the dance phase like some female ‘rappers’ out there. She is doing something new but yet keeping it her own at the same time. I love her!
AlunaGeorge releases the visuals for one of my favorite songs of the moment, ‘Just A Touch’. Fusing a little of Pop and electronic, this track will stay in your head for days. They just released their EP, You Know You Like It, which I have yet to check out, but I’m sure it won’t disappoint!
This post is just because Rochelle Jordan is involved in this song, and I love her. I’m not too sure about Wingate, but on this song his verses are pretty good. Rochelle Jordan flows over the chorus in her smooth R&B vocals, and while this is a Wingate track, it definitely sounds like a RoJo track.
Anyway, if your a fan of this song, I recommended you check out some of Rochelle Jordan’s stuff, it is all amazing!
Azealia Banks releases her title track to the EPAquababe, and I have to say, I love every single part of this track. She channels her inner Missy Elliott and regardless of all the drama she has going around her, this track definitely shows us why she is where she is. It’s not as good as ‘212’ but I have to say, I’m pretty excited to see where this girls career will go.
