The king, Justin Timberlake, releases visuals for his first single from his upcoming album, The 20/20 Experience Part 2. ‘Take Back The Night’ has the sound of old school Jackson 5, and yet keeps it current to fit in with the top 40. Justin Timberlake can do no wrong in my books, and I am just as excited for part 2 of his album as I was about the 1st half.

It seems as though Nelly is making quite a comeback, from his terrible country mixed single, and now to this. ‘Get Like Me’ has Pharrell productions written all over it, and I don’t mind at all. The beat is catchy, as are the lyrics, and throw on Nicki Minaj who is perfect when she is the feature of a track, you have a recipe for a top 40 smash.
The king, Justin Timberlake, releases visuals for one of my favorite cuts from the album ‘Tunnel Vision’. Although the video is a bit weak in some aspects, being it has nothing really to do with the song, I still couldn’t take my eyes off it. That might be a little biased coming from me, but I still love this song no matter what, the beat is still on a different league all together. Some are saying the video is kind of a blow to the ‘Blurred Lines’ video of Robin Thicke, but who knows!
Enjoy!
Tinie Tempah makes his much awaited return to the music business with the release of the smash hit ‘Trampoline’. Tinie has always been one to make tracks for the dance scene and this track is definitely no different. I don’t really care for the 2 chainz feature, but all together this track is definitely a club hit across the seas. I just hope, like so many other tracks, it gains success over here in the UK like his previous tracks did!
After almost a year after releasing ‘Bad Girls’, M.I.A returns with a banging new single ‘Bring The Noize’. This track is definitely a classic M.I.A tune, with the chopped and repeated vocal beat, and her classic M.I.A flow. This track is absolute perfection, and just gets me more and more excited for her new project I guess. I’m not sure when she is supposed to release her next album, but I’ll wait patiently, from the tracks I have heard so far it sounds like its going to be sick!
Lorde has been gaining quite a bit of buzz recently over the internet, and just yesterday she released her video for her quite amazing single ‘Tennis Court’. If you don’t know Lorde, you will probably love her if your a fan of Lana Del Rey, they both sound very much the same. I hate to say it, but I haven’t seen anything yet that sets the 2 apart, which isn’t the worst thing in the world, but also no the best. I do love ‘Tennis Court’ although comparable to Lana, either way both are very good. Enjoy!
Those of you who have been following this blog know that I am a huge supporter of semi-newcomer Daley. I have been following his career for quite some time now, and he is slowly getting the credit he deserves with his success of ‘Alone Together’ all over the USA. He has been teasing us with this video for a couple of days now, and it is finally out in full and just like anything he puts out, it doesn’t disappoint at all. STRMOY is perfection, and I’m very much excited to hear his next EP, and soon followed by his album Days & Nights.
Stay tuned friends, this guy is about to blow up!
Sub Focus caught my attention with their genius collaboration with Alpines, ‘Tidal Wave‘. This new single follows the dance vibe of their previous single, and features the ever so talented Alex Clare. This song has already hit charts in the UK, and although I doubt it will hit USA charts, at least you can still enjoy it!
After giving this song a couple of listens upon its listen, I realized that while it is catchy, it will do nothing for their career. It blends right in there with The Wanted and OneDirection, and if you haven’t heard of Union J thats exactly who you will mistake the song for. I still support them because I still believe that the R&B direction would do wonders for them, but if their team doesn’t change it up, Union J will be a thing of the past
Rudimental, for those who don’t know, has been storming the UK charts for quite some time now. His previous efforts include ‘Feel The Love‘, ‘Not Giving In‘ and one of my favorites, ‘Spoons‘, which also features the soulful MNEK. ‘Baby’ with the addition of Sinead Harnett, is a big track to come from Rudimental, just like previous tracks. This track is filled with dance floor vibes all the way, with the addition of power house vocals from Sinead, this track will definitely make a huge impact on the charts. As big as this track is, the video is just as fun to watch. I believe that Rudimental’s album could be quite big musically, and I can’t wait to hear it!
enjoy!
