24/7 Entertainment Interviews 'Auburn'

24/7 Entertainment got another chance to interview an up and coming artist. This time it was with Auburn.
Auburn is a 21 year old singer/songwriter from the US who is currently signed to Warner Bros and J.R.Rotem's record label Beluga Heights. She has been dubbed the Princess of Beluga Heights as she is the first female to be signed to the record company. She is currently working on her debut album to be released either later this year, or early next year. Her first single is called 'La La La' and the video premiered the other day. Check the video out here.
Anyways check out the Q & A session below and enjoy:

Can't freaking wait! Can you?

Download: JoJo - Can't Take That Away From Me (Mixtape)

JoJo is back with some new music in the form of a FREE mixtape. The mixtape was exclusively revealed on Rap-Up.com and can be downloaded through the links below. I love some JoJo songs but I wouldn't class myself as a fan. The mixtape from what I have heard is actually quite good, so make sure you go check it out - it is free so what have you got to lose?

Single Cover Listen: Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World)

Rihanna is back with a new single titled 'Only Girl (In The World' and album titled 'Loud' which will be released sometime in November. In case you have been hiding underneath a rock or something, then check out the single cover and listen to the single below:

The track was not what I was expecting, but nevertheless it is quite good. It does take a few listens before it reaches impact, but I think that this era may be good for her. Its definitely a different direction from the dark 'Rated R' era.

Are you digging this song?

Single Cover & Listen: Natasha Bedingfield 'Strip Me'


Here is what is supposedly the single cover to Natasha Bedingfield's next single entitled 'Strip Me'. It is either the lead single of the album or second single, depending on whether they have classed 'Touch' as a single or buzz single. Either way the cover is plain, and I could throw a better one together than that, but who cares?
The song is AMAZING and another one of Natasha Bedingfield's hits! Check out the song below:


What do you think?

Video Premiere: Auburn - La La La (Ft. Iyaz)

New up and coming singer/songwriter Auburn has just recently released a video for her first single titled 'La La La' featuring Iyaz. The song is an absolute smash and I still have it on repeat. Check out the official video for the track below as it was officially released through Auburn's myspace page.


Oh, and one last thing, go and SUPPORT this girl!
P.S. Interview coming soon...

UPDATE: The Saturdays Collaborate With Flo Rida!

The Saturdays recently went on a trip to LA. It is unclear of exactly what they were doing there. They had some meetings and were apparently filming. It also seems that whilst they were there, they got Flo Rida to collaborate with them on one of their tracks. It is not know which track that Flo Rida will be featured on yet, but it has been specualted to be their next single, Higher. More news will become available once I have it.

What do you think of this news? I actually can't wait to see what this will sound like but I sincerely hope this gets them a #1 hit!

*UPDATE: It has been confirmed that Flo Rida will feature on the single version of 'Higher' which has a unconfirmed release date of September 27th! 

Flashback Game #1

I done this game before but I called it Celeb Rewind. Decided to change the name to Flashback. So I will post a picture of a celeb when they were younger here. And you need to comment who you think it is. Very simple :)


No prize, just a bit of fun! Get guessing!

New Song: Nicki Minaj - Check It Out (Ft. Will.I.Am)


Nicki Minaj is back with a new song titled 'Check It Out' featuring Will.I.Am. The track is really catchy and Nicki once again delivers. The track samples 'Video Killed The Radio Star' so you know that the track is a banger. Now that the HQ has leaked, I have really got to love the track. Listen below and look in the comments for the link.

Album Review: The Saturdays - Headlines

Back to normal-ish now and back with another album review. So lets crack on. The Saturday released mini album/EP 'Headlines' which is being referred to as their third album. The album contains 8 tracks and has 3 tracks from their 'Wordshaker' album and includes their new single 'Missing You'.
The album is their highest charting album to date gaining a respectable #3 in the UK album chart, but was the album worthy of that position?

Here is my track-by-track review:

24/7 Recommends...Girlicious - 2 In The Morning

After a little while and I am back with a new recommended track. This time I have chosen the new Girlicious single titled '2 In The Morning'. This is the third single taken from their second studio album 'Rebuilt' which will be released this fall.
If you haven't heard the song check it out below:


The song is really catchy and is definitely another smash from the Girlicious girls. Not sure if it is better than Maniac but defo better than Over You. I am really anticipating this new album as I have liked all the new material and their first album was really good!

What song/album would you recommend?

Alexandra Burke Acts Like A Diva?

Alexandra Burke is said to have started acting like a 'diva'. Whilst singing at the 30th birthday party of footballer Jamie Carragher's wife Nicola, she apparently refused to take photographs and even sent her manager on a 20 min walk to find a specific brand of bottled water.

I am not sure if this is true as the story was probably spindled out of nowhere. It definitely wont change my views on her as I will always love her. Seriously though, which celeb hasn't been said to have acted like a diva?! Alex has just been added to a neverending list.

What do you guys think?

Diana Vickers 3rd Single & Album Re-Release!

Diana Vickers has confirmed via Ustream that her third single will be a new track titled 'My Wicked Heart'. It will be available to download on October 24th and the physical release of the single being the following day.
Speaking about the new single she said:
"The third single is a brand new track which none of you have heard and I'm really excited about this. It's called 'My Wicked Heart'.
I've been working with this really great writer Dee Adams and a really, really great producer called James Earp. I went into the studio and was mooching around and we ended up writing 'Wicked Heart'.
I was so excited about it and just so enthusiastic and I always think - since I started and I recorded the first album - that I've grown so much, my voice has become stronger and I loved doing all my live shows.
I just wrote the track and I thought it was so wicked and I couldn't wait to show you all. So we've got it as the third single and I'm really excited about it."
As this is a new track that was not on her debut album 'Songs From The Tainted Cherry Tree', it has been confirmed that she will be re-releasing the album which will feature the news single plus other new tracks on November 1st.

What do you think? I am looking forward to see what new stuff Diana has made as I loved the album so I hope this follows suit!

Rihanna's New Single 'Cheers' In Less Than 10 Days!

I apologise that I have neglected the blog over the past few months, but I am back and will be posting news and links whenever possible. First, I have some news on the new Rihanna single from her upcoming fifth studio album. The song is now claimed to be called 'Cheers' instead of previous reports of a song titled 'Only Girl'.

Rihanna took to her Twitter page earlier today to report that the new song will be out in less than 10 days! See what she wrote here.

What do you think of this news? Are you excited?

*UPDATE: It has been confirmed that the single will be called 'Only Girl (In The World)' and will be released to radios on September 14th*
