Toni Braxton - Make My Heart

Hot, uptempo jam from Toni Braxton's PULSE released in a couple months. Love this...

Monica - Everything To Me

Monica is back! I have always loved Monica and hope this album brings her back up to the top ranks! Check out the song that the fans vote don for her first single, "Everything To Me." Samples Denice Williams "Silly" - another amazing track.



Here's original music from Denice Williams....ooooo its so good! Feel it!

Jennifer Lopez "Everybody's Girl"

New J Lo song has leaked - "Everybody's Girl."  It. is. fucking. awesome.  This needs to be on iTunes NOW and I need to BUY IT NOW!  A+ Love it!

Taken off her forthcoming album "LOVE?"

Ke$ha Still Number One with Tik Tok

Ke$ha is till doing amazingly well with Tik Tok, it is a fun track though! I'm interested to see where this girl will be in five-ten years!

Ke$ha continues her reign on the Hot 100 for a sixth straight week with "TiK ToK," surviving a strong challenge from Taylor Swift, who debuts in the runner-up slot with "Today Was a Fairytale."

As reported yesterday, Swift posts the highest opening-week download sum by a female artist in the history of Nielsen SoundScan tracking (since 2003), as "Today Was A Fairytale" enters Hot Digital Songs at No. 1 with 325,000.

Ke$ha Number One, maybe.

Hits Daily Double's predicting the following.  If Ke$ha is number one that is mind blowing.  Great promotion, pricing and timing.  Good for her.   
 

YOUR FIRST 2010 WEAKEND CHART PREVIEW: While anything can happen over the weekend, it now appears that Ke$ha will be the one to unseat Susan Boyle from the top of the chart. Here's how the Top 10 looks headed into the weekend:
Ke$ha (RCA/RMG debut) 130-140k
Susan Boyle (Columbia) 100-105k
Alicia Keys (J/RMG) 60-65k
Lady Gaga, The Fame (Interscope) 60-65k
Mary J. Blige (Geffen) 50-55k
Taylor Swift (Big Machine) 40-45k
Black Eyed Peas (Interscope) 40-45k
Alvin & The Chipmunks, The Squeakquel (Rhino) 35-40k
Lady Gaga, The Fame Monster (Interscope) 30-35k
Justin Bieber (Island/IDJ) 30-35k
In related news, the head of RCA/Jive has just changed the spelling of his name to Barry Wei$s. (1/8p)

VIBE magazine is back, but who cares. Drake + Chris Brown

Who cares, because it lost some punch.  I like the new format, but there's no meat and the two covers are horrendous.  Chris Brown then Drake.  The magazine shut down in June and came back last month, but it feels like these covers are from July and August.  Also, whats with the writing on the shirts, redic.  Nope.  C'mon VIBE, we know you have better. 

Mag Cover Explosion - JLo, Christina Aguilera, GAGA, Corrine Baily Rae

Christina Aguilera's new album, BIONIC will be out in late April.

JLo's album LOVE? will be out later this spring.

Gaga is predicting  anew album by the end of 2010.

Corrine Baily Rae will release her 2nd album later this year.  Its been a few years since the devastating death of her husband.  Go girl.  

Mariah Carey - Angels Advocate

Mariah Carey is on tour and is re releasing her album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel in remix form and I believe the project is dubbed " Angels Advocate."  Check out some of the tracks below (featuring Up Out My Face, simply one of the best tracks on the album ala Shake It Off) that are leaking and get your copy at the end of February!
