Here I The First Single & Video From The Debut Studio Album Of Rising Star "Tiffany Evans".
Although she is only 14 years old, you have to respect how well Tiffany has done for herself, she has already been signed to "Sony BMG" & has superstar producer "Timbaland" working on her debut album.
The track is very 'girlie', commercial & 'poppy', but you can see the potential of this girl, so it is worth a look.
Check out the video for "Promise Ring" below:

Former "G-Unit" Member "Olivia" Is Back, With An Independently Released Single & Album.
Here is her first single, "Cherry Pop", produced by & featuring veteran of the game "Missy Elliott". The track is an up-tempo, R&B, Hip-Hop mix, with a flavour of an 'old school' Missy track, with it's 'retro' beat backed up by some good vocals it is sure hit.
It's great to see Olivia release some solo material, especially after her falling out with "50 Cent", Missy was definately a good choice to help her out, but I'm not so sure about her releasing it independently? Then again, with the addition of whistles & air horn effects in this track, how can she go wrong? lol.

Prior To It's Release On The 25th Of June (UK), Here's "Kelly Rowland's" New Album "Ms Kelly".
This is one of the most anticipated R&B albums of this year, & after countless delays it is great to finally see it arrive. With main production from "Scott Storch" & tracks written by "Solange Knowles", it promises to be a real event from Kelly, I hope & expect it to fare better than her last album "Simply Deep".
I don't like to review albums until I have spun them a few times, you can never 'feel' an entire album in 1 or 2 listens. So, expect a review within the next week.
If you listen to the album & like it, go & grab a copy when it's officially released!
*Reminder, if you choose to download the album, you must legally delete it within 24 hours
"Shut Up & Drive" Is The Official Second Single From "Rihanna's" Number #1 Album "Good Girl Gone Bad".
This Rock tinged track has some simple, unfortunate, pop inspired lyrics, but looking past that is a hot single that should do well. It's not my favourite track from the album but will serve Riri well as a second single.
Check out the link & the video below, if your interest in the album, take a look at my Review.

It Is Being Reported That This Will Be The New Single From R&B Songstress "Alicia Keys".
It is entitled "Superwoman" & will appear on her new album, which is currently untitled & is set to drop this October. I have also included a video of her performing the track in the studio, even with it's poor sound quality Alicia's voice sounds outstanding, in my opinion she has one of the best voices in the recording world.
LISTEN: "Alicia Keys - Superwoman" (Low quality, I will post a better one if it is leaked)
Here Is An Unexpected Remix Of "Ne-Yo's" Current Single "Do You".
It features the self proclaimed 'Queen Of Hip-Hop/Soul', the fantastically talented "Mary J Blige". I never really liked the original version of this track, it seemed plain & quite boring, but Mary has bought this track to life, she has really added something new & has given the record a much better feeling.
Why Ne-Yo didn't put her on the original I don't know, I'm sure it would have fared much better with his fans & hers. Although no track listing's are currently available for Mary J's new album, I'm sure Ne-Yo will feature on it, as he has been writing some tracks with her, which will undoubtedly be singles.

Yeah, I Hate Her Too.
One of the most annoying tracks of recent months has to have been the car crash single "Girlfriend", from Canadian 'mini rocker' "Avril Lavigne". Now a brand new, very surprising remix has emerged, with 'mini Missy Elliott', "Lil Mama".
The first time I heard people talking about Lil Mama, I thought it was cheap, over promoted crap, but the way she spits her lyrics in this track took me by surprise, she seems far more professional than you would expect from a 17 year old.
The track itself, is primarily crap, as you still hear the ridiculously annoying chorus (hey hey, you you), but look past that & listen to Lil Mama rap, & it becomes a very cool track with a girl who I hope is around in years to come.
Here Is The New Single & Video From The UK's Finest "M.I.A".
For those of you who don't know M.I.A, she is a UK Grime & Hip-Hop artist who has been producing music for a few years now, but has only started to find more major success over the past year or so. I first came across M.I.A's work when "Timbaland" invited her to work on a track with "Missy Elliott", entitled "Bad Man", it made the final cut of Missy's smash hit album "The Cookbook". She also appears on a UK bonus track from Tim's current record "Shock Value", Tim is currently working with M.I.A on her upcoming album "Kala".
M.I.A's current single "Boyz" has lead her to being played on more mainstream radio stations in the UK, even the 'Indie-pop' based "Radio 1". The track itself is more of the norm from M.I.A, it's energetic beat & rhythm make it a real summer tune, while the video is colourful, vibrant & generally tripped out. If this is the first time you have heard her music, give it a few spins as I'm sure you will get to like it.
LISTEN: "M.I.A - Boyz"
