Watch: Monica - Love All Over Me Video (Part 2)

So after scrapping 'Here I Am' as the second single and replacing it with the wonderful ballad 'Love All Over Me', the video has now arose. I absolutely love this song and her vocals in this are amazing. The video is quite decent, and was first revealed last week (I think). The version last week allowed viewers to vote on who Monica ends up marrying at the end of the video. I never posted the video before, but you can actually see the final version now to see who she actually married:

What did you think of the outcome?

Watch: Taio Cruz - Dynamite Video

All Taio Cruz fans, here is his new video for his track 'Dynamite'. The video is OK as is the song. The song sounds like something else I just can't put my finger on. Anyways, decent enough so check it out:

Listen: Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are

Back in May, Bruno released his first EP titled 'It's Better If You Don't Understand'. I absolutely loved the EP and was eager for news on an album from him. It was later revealed that he would be releasing a debut album  soon, and then his first single from the album appeared.

The track is called 'Just The Way You Are' and is now available to buy on iTunes. Listen to the track below and let me know your thoughts:

His voice is great on the track just like on his EP, however, I find the song very generic and not up to the quality of his other tracks from his EP. This don't mean that I completely dislike the song, but I thought it would be better.

Rihanna Back Recording + New Single For Late Summer

So Rihanna is back in the recording studio and is currently recording her next album. Other news has also said that her first single from the new album will be released towards the end of the Summer. This obviously means that there will be no more singles from her Rated R album.

I am intrigued to hear what her new material will sound like because I got bored of her Rated R era too quickly for my liking so lets hope she comes bigger and better with this next one.

Taylor Swift New Album Due October 25th

Not a massive fan of Taylor Swift. She doesn't really do anything for me, however, I know that some people may be interested or even pleased to know that her new album will be titled 'Speak Now' and is apparently due for an October the 25th release.
The album will consist of 14 tracks, with the first single called 'Mine' due out on August 16th.
On the album title, Taylor Swift, explained the name choice by saying:

 “Track by track, each song is a different confession to a different person.”

I can't say that I am looking forward to this, but I will see what the first single sounds like before completely writing her off.

Watch: Wynter Gordon - Dirty Talk Video Premiere

So whilst I haven't been posting there have been many videos that have appeared. The first on the list that has finally premiered is Wynter Gordon's 'Dirty Talk' video. The song was released back in March and it has taken this long to produce a video for the track. Check the video out below:

I must say that i really like the track but the video just does nothing for me. Considering it took ages until a video was made you would have thought that more had gone into it. It didn't really do anything for me and I had a completely different vision for it. The song is still great tho.

Amerie Changes Her Name

So I am back and posting and I have a ton of updates to do. To start off I thought I would go lightly with the news of Amerie's name change and my thoughts. This is fairly old news but I want to catch up and throw my two cents in.

So, just in case you haven't heard yet, Amerie has now changed her name to...

'Ameriie'

On the reason for changing her name to add an extra 'i' she said the following to Rap-Up:

“I operate on vibes and intuition, and I believe everything is energy; the vibration of the double I is right for me. Slightly different spelling, completely same pronunciation!”

So, the extra 'i' is all to do with positivity, etc for her new upcoming album 'Cymatika Vol 1'. I really think its the most stupid thing I have heard. I know that I will completely dismiss the fact she added an extra 'i' because otherwise it just confuses matters.

EXCLUSIVE: The Saturdays 'Headlines' Album Cover + Tracklisting

I have labelled this as an exclusive because I have yet to see this posted anywhere else. The Saturdays have finally revealed the full details of their mini album 'Headlines' via their official Facebook page.

The mini album will be released on August 16th, one week after the release of single 'Missing You'.

The album cover and the tracklisting have both been confirmed and can be found below:

1. Missing You

2. Ego

3. Higher

4. Forever Is Over

5. Died In Your Eyes

6. Karma

7. Puppet

8. One Shot (Starsmith Mix)

The tracklisting shows and confirms that the album will have 3 old tracks; Ego, Forever Is Over and One Shot and will be joined with 5 new tracks, including their first single 'Missing You'.

The tracklisting is slightly disappointing but it is only supposed to be a mini album, so hopefully this does well and then we will get a full album very soon. Either way, new songs from The Saturdays ain't getting any complaints from me.

The album cover on the other hand looks amazing and I definitely think this is their best cover yet. I am glad the old logo is back and that some colour has been injected back into their image.
