The super-official Brit boogie don’s welcome return serves up nothing less than what we’d expect of him…
In fact this reminds me of the ‘Cosmic Girl’ video. Bordering on car advert, featuring some sexy dangerous driving. Bit sad he’s not wearing the famous head decoration though.
New album ‘Rock Star Light Dust’ is out November 1st.
LOL.
Just threw up a little in my mouth.
I don’t understand why Chris Brown can’t make the music he was born to make? What the heck is this? If it’s not this Vengaboys sounding piece of sh*t, it’s him trying to be the thug he ain’t on mixtapes. Why the f*ck can’t this dude just record songs like ‘Wall 2 Wall’, ‘Kiss Kiss’, ‘Transform Ya’, ‘Excuse Me Miss’ et el? Chart chasing is not the way forward.
…Wonder what C-Breezy was listening to when he was a kid, like around the ages of 10-14? Do you think it was Euro-dance music or Usher? Yeah, 3x.
Sir Michael Rocks of the The Cool Kids drops a solo video for ‘S.S’ – an ode to the summer.
…Man, looking out my window, I see a wet, miserable, cold London night – it’s hard to connect with this right now. Should have dropped a couple weeks ago. Eh.
Here’s the official, CDQ, remix of Drizzy’s new single ‘Fancy’ off his album Thank Me Later, which features the Queen of Hip Hop Soul Mary J. Blige (who originally had the song before Drake nabbed it) and producer Swizz Beatz. I like the addition of Blige’s vocals and I really like that intro.

Clearly his recent run in with the law hasn’t affected his fledgling career, as Bruno Mars stormed the UK charts this week going straight in at the number 1 spot with his debut single ‘Just the Way You Are’. Here’s another new jam off his debut album Doo Wops & Hooligans called ‘Marry You’ – this, like the rest of his leaks, yet again prove that Mars really is a good songwriter. Can hear this all over the radio. I like this.

This video could feature Nicki Minaj and Kim Kardashian in a mud fight, naked – and still wouldn’t distract for the atrocity that is this song. It would help, but wouldn’t make right. Lol.

It’s fiiiiiiiinally here!
Been needing a new Mickey Factz mixtape for a minute now, we’ve been hearning about this project for a while now but the wait is over. Factz returns with a new mixtape entitled I’m Better Than You whic features appearances from the likes of Precize, B.o.B, 6th Sense and a few others. Download (via XXL) up top, tracklist after the jump, get in to it now…
First Bilal, now Corrine Bailey Rae covers Bob Marley’s classic ‘Is This Love’ and does so beautifully. As someone who hasn’t ever really been a fan of Miss Rae’s (music elitists sit down, please lol), I can’t deny this, really love her interpretation.

Headphones on or speakers up and ‘blast that’ please…
Nottz forthcoming album You Need This Music is due out October 26th, this tune featuring the one and only Black Milk, who’s album Album of the Year is currently burning up my ears. Funky baseline, knocking drums and a nice guitar licks – I’m down for this.

Hello Miss Rowland, hello.
Kelly Rowland poses for Complex Magazine in this sexy new photoshoot, below you can peep the rest of the (hot fiyah) pictures and after the jump you’ll be able to peep a behind the scenes video of her on the shoot. Oh and if you’re the reading type you can read the full accompanying interview here.
Oi, this is why I say this lady has one of the best voices of our generation. Don’t take that sh*t lightly. Press play immediately.
…Are you hearing this? Her vocals are in sane! I would be lying if I said I was completely happy with Sullivan’s debut album, I felt in parts it lacked a certain…Soul but I really don’t think this time round that will be an issue. Everything that’s leaked so far, including her new single, has been so on point and with Salaam Remi on the boards – you really can’t go wrong.
Reloading…Now.

I don’t even know what to do with this. Haha. Literally just fell into my inbox (out to Tam), I pressed play and my speakers nearly coughed up their innards. Fu*k. ‘Next Hype’ is just that, next…! Some will absolutely love this, some will not. I know, in the right situation (ravement) – this will mess me up…
You’ll be able to download this via their website on November 8th for free…
Dropped this track last week, we told you to expect the video – here it is.
So it’s a little wait but the glorious Esco & illustrious Jnr. Gong will be making a return to our shores in the upcoming Spring.
Their last show was hailed as one of the most electrifying, uplifting gigs of the year with two greats who were clearly destined for collaboration and successfully undertook that with absolute musical and socio-political integrity on ‘Distant Relatives’.
