Kimberley Locke Sets Her Sights on Another No. 1 Dance Single with 'Strobelight'

Looks like all of those #1 Billboard Dance Hits finally did the trick. Kimberley Locke is finally releasing a dance record!  After topping the dance charts with the remixes for "Fall," "Change" and "Band Of Gold," Kimberley Locke is releasing a song that has me dancing even BEFORE the remixes are released.  "Strobelight," produced by Cutfather and Paparazzi is pure disco-pop perfection.  I've

Before Kelis...My Whole Life Was Acapella

Acapella





Kelis | MySpace Music Videos

I LOVE Kelis. The video for her new David Guetta-produced single "Acapella" officially premiered on Monday and it's a stunner. I LOVE all of the tribal influences and Kelis looks absolutely fabulous throughout.



"Acapella" is the first single off of Kelis' forthcoming 5th studio album (her first with Interscope Records). Flesh Tone is due out

Hot Song Alert: Christina Aguilera - 'Not Myself Tonight'

Well folks. It's here. The debut of the new Christina Aguilera single "Not Myself Tonight"...IN FULL. The verdict? DEFINITELY worth the wait! This song is HOT. I like it because it's CURRENT (God, I feel like that word is so cliche b/c of American Idol), up-tempo and sexy. Considering her last album was a throwback to jazz and old school R&B, a proper club hit was overdue. I also must say that

V.V. Brown @ Great Scott : A Little Tease

V.V. Brown

As you know, last night was the V.V. Brown/Little Dragon concert in Allston, MA at Great Scott. Overall it was a great show, although I have to admit that I snuck out before the end of the Little Dragon's set.

To be honest, the only reason I was there was to see V.V. Brown. I had never heard of Little Dragon prior to seeing that Brown was supporting them. Having just seen V.V.

Katie Melua Unleashes "The Flood" this Spring

I've been a Katie Melua fan forever. Getting to see her last Spring in Cambridge, MA. was SUCH a treat. She's super talented and beautiful to boot. When I started to hear mutterings that the also brilliant William Orbit was working with Melua on her record, I just about died. Why? He's the man behind Madonna's EVER-BRILLIANT Ray Of Light album. Orbit's also known for his work with such

Off to see V.V. Brown (+ Little Dragon)

VV Brown

I'm SO SO SO excited! I'm getting ready to go see one of my FAVORITE artists right now - V.V. Brown at Great Scott in Allston, MA. This will actually be my second time seeing V.V. at Great Scott AND her second time in Boston. It's bound to be a little different this time around, as the last time V.V. was the headliner and THIS time she's opening for the Swedish electro pop group

MIKA Kicks Ass

As soon as I heard MIKA's new song "Kick Ass" was produced by RedOne I had mixed feelings. RedOne is no doubt a VERY talented producer.  The problem is that everybody under the sun has worked with him. Over saturation!  MIKA is just such a unique talent, I'd hate for his new song to sound overly commercial.  That being said, the song really doesn't lose much of that originality.  Sure, the

The Power Of Madonna (+ Glee)

Glee Cast - The Power Of Madonna
I might be dying right now.  As soon as I saw this artwork I just about flipped.  I'm a huge fan of Glee (of course) so naturally, when I heard that Madonna gave the go-ahead for the Glee cast to interpret some of her music for the show, I was BEYOND ecstatic.  THEN - a couple of weeks ago a little glee promo made an appearance during American Idol.  The promo

Artists You Should Know: Reni Lane and Matthew P

With so much to catch up on, I'm having a hard time choosing what to blog about right now. I missed a lot of GOOD music during my hiatus including a shit-ton of up and coming artists that deserve a shot based on sheer talent alone.  Here's are a couple of those artists to watch out for.

Christina Aguilera Isn't Herself Tonight

I've been excited about hearing new stuff from Christina Aguilera ever since I heard some of the big names she's collaborating with this time around - Sia, Tricky Stewart, Le Tigre, Polow Da Don, Ladytron, Diplo, Linda Perry, etc.  That's quite an impressive list of, by and large, more electronically-influenced artists.  What kind of sound is Ms. Aguilera going for this time around?  I for one

New Look, New Blog Post

Hello friends! It's been far too long. You'll notice a couple of differences on my blog. Well...probably one and that's the layout. I am loving Blogger's new layout design tools. I thought it was time for a change so I just went ahead and changed things over. Still has the same look overall but I'm using a new template.

I thought I would EASE my way back into blogging with a "back to basics"
