NEW MUSIC: Justin Bieber – Beauty and the Beat [Ft. Nicki Minaj]

Posted by spatel1305 on

I think it’s safe to say the Biebs album has leaked, with this new leak of ‘Beauty and the Beat’ featuring Nicki Minaj.This is a little better than his previous release of ‘As Long As You Love Me’. It still has a bit of dance/pop feel to it, but his voice fits so much better on this than the other tune. The added feature of Nicki Minaj is not worth it. The track as a whole is just there, and does nothing iconic, which is what he should be doing to keep his career in full effect.

All that being said, he has enough die hard fans that will love his music no matter what, but this album is becoming less interesting each day.

Take a listen below

NEW MUSIC: Justin Bieber – As Long As You Love Me [Ft. Big Sean]

Posted by spatel1305 on

Justin has been hit or miss, but this one is caught me in the middle. ‘As Long As You Love Me’ features Biebs vocals across a dubstep infused beat, and I just don’t like it. I like everything about this song separately, but not together, if that makes sense. The beat is so hot, his vocals are great, but the 2 of them together just doesn’t work. His voice is too smooth and innocent for a hard hitting tune like this. Big Sean’s verse is good, but Justin Bieber is trying to hard to be a mix of genres when his voice doesn’t live up to all of that.

But who knows, this track could definitely grow on me, like some of his others.

I will still check out this album when it drops

listen below!

NEW MUSIC: Joelle James – Fading Away [Ft. Chris Brown]

Posted by spatel1305 on

I have never heard of Joelle James, but apparently she was on American Idol and didn’t quite make it. I was skeptical on listening to this song, because of her American Idol background, but she has completely proved me wrong in all aspects. Joelle James has a sexy tone, kind of like Rihanna, but way better. She sings over a just as sexy beat, and I’m pretty much in love with her. The added, yet weird, feature of Chris Brown is also nice, It really didn’t need him, since she holds the track down on her own. I hope she blows up, because this track is so worth it!

LISTEN!

NEW MUSIC: Usher – Numb x Euphoria x Twisted [Ft. Pharrell] x Hot Thing [Ft. A$AP Rocky]

Posted by spatel1305 on

A whole batch of new Usher songs from his upcoming albumLooking 4 Myself have just leaked online, and I guess the title of the album definitely fits the tracks.The first 2 tracks ‘Numb’ & ‘Euphoria’ are huge dance tunes produced by legendary DJ’s known together as Swedish House Mafia, and the second 2 follow the R&B phase of Usher, all 4 tracks are decent, but still, I’m not sure what direction he wants to go in. Take a listen to all 4 tracks after the break!

NEW MUSIC: Ciara – Sweat [Ft. 2 Chainz]

Posted by spatel1305 on

 

Ciara is trying to get back on it after her latest flop albums with this new single ‘Sweat’. I haven’t really decided if its good or not, I don’t hate it, and I don’t love it. It’s nothing that will stand out on the radio, but I could see her giving a slay worthy performance of the song, since she is like the female Chris Brown. I have to give it a couple of run through plays before I make a final decision on it, check it out below!

NEW VIDEO: Coldplay – Princess of China [Ft. Rihanna]

Posted by spatel1305 on

Definitely a standout track on the the album, and one of my favorites finally gets visual treatment, and well it’s just alright. Both Coldplay and Rihanna have the star power to make this video amazing, but well its just alright, I like it, but it doesn’t make me want to put the track on replay like some videos do. Still a great song though.

NEW MUSIC: Calvin Harris – We’ll Be Coming Back [Ft. Example]

Posted by spatel1305 on

Super DJ of the moment, Calvin Harris drops his second single featuring UK talent Example titled ‘We’ll Be Coming Back’. Calvin has really been on top of his game lately, slaying the charts with Rihanna and Ne-yo, and now he plans to do it again with Example. This definitely won’t hit off in the USA because very few know Examples work, but it’s definitely going to be a hit in the UK.

Definitely not as hard hitting and dance based as ‘Where Have You Been’ or ‘Lets Go’, but still worth the listen, enjoy!
