Soul/R&B singer Mar, is featured on some chill type/house greatness titled ‘Pressure Baby’. Mar’s vocals are amazing, and his solo work and work with Full Crate are eargasmic. I have loved everything Mar has put out, and this just got added to the list!
I’m not sure if this is supposed to be a snippet, or if that’s how the song is supposed to end, but I’ll keep an eye out for the full version if there is one!
Bruno Mars releases his 2nd single from Unorthodox Jukebox titled ‘Young Girls’, while I don’t think the name of the song is good, but Bruno sounds amazing as always. I’m quite looking forward to hearing his new album, he seems to have gone in a different direction as far as sound goes, so it should be interesting.
Wretch 32 has been quite a success in the UK with collabs with Example and Josh Kumra, and now he releases his single from his next album ‘Pop?’. This track is filled with a hard hitting beat and your standard Wretch flow, and I love it! It is a very catchy track and I definitely see it gaining some success on the UK charts once it has its official release! Wretch 32’s last album Black and White was genius, so I’m looking forward to hearing what else he has in store for his next album!
YES.
Chase & Status is back with new music!! Their previous album was definitely a big one of last year, and I have a feeling, judging by this track, this one will be too. The video pretty much ignites what the song does, go freaking crazy and push people. Not much else to say, except they have made this track available for a free download on their official website!
UK talent, Roses Gabor has definitely moved into one of my ones to watch spots after releasing the amazing ‘Stars’. I heard this track a couple of days ago, but was being a bit stingy and keeping it to myself before deciding that a song this good needed to be heard. This is her debut solo single, and what a way to start off. She keeps a very haunting sound yet it has a bit of a underground dance/club vibe towards it. Watch out for this talent, she will be a big one soon!
The legend that is Adele is releasing one more track before she goes on her indefinite break from music to do life things. She leaves us with the hauntingly perfect ‘Skyfall’ which will be the lead single off the new James Bond movie, and also slay every single single that is going to be released in the next couple of months. ‘Skyfall’ isn’t usual Adele material, but it makes sense because it is for the James Bond movie, but I have to admit I’m already starting to miss her, and I hope her break isn’t too long.
The biggest producer in the past year is getting ready to release what will probably be his biggest selling album of all time, 18 months. Another single coming straight off that project has featured vocals from the amazing Ellie Goulding, and while this isn’t my favorite track in the entire world, It is pretty good. Calvin Harris is pulling out all the stops on this album, first enlisting Florence, and now Ellie. This song will definitely be huge when it gains exposure, so enjoy it now before it gets played out!
YES.
The ever so amazing Bruno Mars is back and definitely evolving his sound, and I have to say I love it! ‘Locked Out’ is very old school 80’s kind of rock vibe, kind of like The Police mixed with some Bob Marley. Bruno Mars has been gone long enough, and his catchy songs will just get eaten up by the radio. This will definitely be a number 1, and it’s just a matter of time till it happens!
It’s that time of year for the single queen, Rihanna to release her next studio album. Her first single ‘Diamonds’ got it’s release today. As much as I want to hate this single, I just can’t. She changes up her sound again and it sounds awesome. The song is written by the amazing Sia, and you can faintly hear her background vocals on the track. I was under the impression it was going to be a big dance track, and I’m so glad it’s not. Rihanna always has a way of standing out from the crowd, and this just might do it. She definitely proved me wrong. Also I LOVE the single cover.
The queen of trash and glitter has returned!! Ke$ha graces us with her presence on ‘Die Young’ after taking a couple of years break. After teasing us with little video snippets of the song, she finally makes a full release (official release on tuesday), and I have to say it doesn’t live up to the expectation that I was hoping for.It doesn’t sound like she made any progress as far as her sound goes, but maybe she is just warming us up with this and will release some massive tracks off her next album. With that being said, the radio and me will still eat this song alive and it will be every ones new anthem in the next couple of weeks.
Will this be able to out stand a massive Rihanna single that is said to be dropping on Wednesday? I would bank on it. This is definitely number 1 material, and while it’s not exactly what I was expecting after she released that ‘Supernatural‘ preview, I still love every moment of it, and it will just grow and grow from here.
Warrior drops December 4th!
Long Live Music
