My Playlist 3

I'm Back ( Terminator stylee lol),

Continuing from where I left off ( my play list 2), check out...

BOB feat Nicki Minaj- Out of my mind ( out now)

I think this video is real cool and so like the weird, over the top stuff that is in vogue right now. They all look deranged lol. I especially like Nicki Minaj when she says  " U know i graduated  summa cum Laude, thats why they thinking i'm a lumanati" lol!



Justin Beiber feat Nicki Minaj - Beauty and A Beat ( out now)

Yup, I know, another Nicki Minaj collaboration, she's everywhere, everyone wants to work with her, oh wait maybe not everyone (Lil' Kim)




I am not a beileber, but this songs not bad, compared to his debut song and other hits, it seems like Justin Beiber is trying to proof he is now a man, well he is 18 now, thats the new 21, but he still can't vote so i'm not so sure. Like an artist should, he is growing and evolving and so is his music, but only time will tell wether he will be around just as long as his mentor and superstar Usher, who has managed to re-invent himself and still stay current. Justin may be doing well musically, but it seems like all is not well on the romance side. From what i have read in the daily mail, his long term girlfriend, singer and actress Selena Gomez dumped him last weeek.

I did not see this coming, but knew it would happen at some time, could never see them being together forever. Apparently Selena dosen't see Beiber as much, blaming the break up on their busy schedules, with him on tour and her filming in the States, and it is also believed that there is some trust issues, with believe that Beiber may have cheated on the disney star with a victoria's secret model after being spotted out together. Whatever the reason, to be honest do you blame him? Beiber is a POPSTAR! He's 18 and NOT BAD LOOKING ( he's not my type) , but for everyone else he is very handsome! So sorry Selena, but i'm not surprised.  And by the way, who do these celebrities think they are Denzel Washington/ Posh n Becks or something, you can't have it all, something's got to give, something has to suffer, so its about choice either work on the relationship and let the career suffer or work on the career and let...well you know....but trying to be in control of both will burn you out, just look at Taylor Swift, she keeps mixing business with pleasure, thats why her relationships don't last ( or maybe she has extremely bad taste in men or just likes bad boys aka John Mayor), every break up is turned to a song, I feel sorry for her next song, i mean prey, I mean man.

Neyo - let me love you ( out now)


Neyo is back, it seems to me that when Neyo is on the scene, Jason Derulo takes a vacation and vice versa ( I think they made a pact to stay out of each others way) lol. I love this song, I like the message behind it though, and the beat is infectious especially at the bridge. I've always wanted to know something, please vote below, ( personally, I think Michael Jackson is the greatest pop dancer of all time, but in terms of current living musicians, please choose from below and if you know any more please let me know) thanks x

[polldaddy poll=6682948]


Calvin Harris feat Neyo - Let's Go ( out now)



Yup, another Neyo song, gotta feeling his gonna be on the next one ( stay tuned). I like this track, it's a good club banger. David Guetta and Calvin Harris must be fierce rivals in terms of how many artist they have featured on their dance tracks, I think they are still neck and neck, Harris with Rihanna on We found love/ where have you been and Guetta with Usher - without you  and oh wait Rihanna - who's that chick.

Grime music, dub step, and Dance is coming back hard. Its like the 90's and early 2000's but with more innovation and auto tune. I still love my 90's dance anthems though - check out my post on Dance anthems in Music news ( coming soon). If you're an artist and haven't made any dance music or collaborated with these guys then you need to step up , seriously.

Connor Maynard Feat. Neyo - Turn around ( out now)



I know, sorry, another Neyo feature, he's the male version of  Nicki Minaj. Basically Connor Maynard is like the British version of Justin Beiber.  I actually think he's better looking. But anyway, I only found that out recently, honestly i thought he was american. He has done well, collaborating with Neyo will definately boost his music and celebrity credentials. He is talented, and just like beiber, has a strong female fan base ( not has strong has beiber thou, not sure if he has has much twitter followers) and their vocal range and songs are similar. This song is an average pop song, but its catchy and he's cute so ...


Okay another Neyo...just kidding  its Usher, Usher, Usher, yeah man...

The following songs are from Usher's 2012 album Looking 4 Myself ( out now)

Usher- Climax



His vocals are very high on this track, i like it, sounds angelic and operatic. He is famous for his love songs, which usually feature heavily on dilema. King of smooth rnb usher does not disappoint with this track, which reminds me of hits like u got it bad, let it burn, u make me wanna and confessions.


Usher- Scream


Love this song,  listen to this when i go jogging, it motivates me to keep going lol. Really upbeat, funky, dance tune. Almost as good as Yeah. My only concern is that like most of you may have noticed by now, Usher tends to start most of his dance tunes with usher, usher, usher, yeah man! It's like Jason Derulo, when  he says his name at the start of every song, and I am thinking, for God's sake, we know your name man, it tells us on the video at the start, stop reminding us, we don't have memory loss lol, but Jason Derulo is more annoying. Usher can still get away with it, cause it sounds sexy...


My Playlist 2

Hi guys,

Heres part 2 of my playlist. I'm gonna break it down into sections cause it's too loong lol.  I would like to refer to my previous my playlist about

Vince Kidd's song Sick Love. I thought Vince Kidd did a cover and was searching for the original, but the original is also by him lool, only this

time Lady Leshurr does not feature on it. Check out the original below, let me know if you think its better with Lady Leshurr on the track or not,

personally I prefer it with Lady Leshurr cause it livens it up. For the record I prefer the original video to the one with Lady Leshurr, it's more

disturbing lol. Oh and check out my lookerlikees section and vote to see if Vince Kidd looks like my good friend Mario Lopez, I think he does, but

he dosen't, plus many more celebrity lookerlikees!!

Chris Brown - Please Don't Judge  ( out now)

Yup, he's right when he says don't judge me, because there has been a lot of judging surrounding Chris Brown, since the infamous 2009 assault on Rihanna, but thats in the past, and i for one has stopped judging Chris Brown. WHY? You ask, well its primarily because he is a fantastic all round musician. He can sing, dance, write songs and is fit as hell. I love his music and thats what matters, he made a mistake and has been punished, what else do you want man! Chris Brown is talented, what he did was very wrong, but i'm sure he is more mature now and has learnt from his mistakes. As you know from reading my previous playlists or video uploads, I have several Chris Brown tunes in the mix. His most recent single, Please Don't Judge Me from the album Fortune, in my opinion is his way of  expressing himself and communicating, not just with his fans but also with the press and those close to him.  It could be his way of referring to his love triangle between Rihanna and ex girlfriend Karruche Tran or the assault from way back when, anyway the song is a slow, mid tempo ballad, with Chris's husky vocals, he is great at producing love songs, keep it up Chris Brown.







Another Chris Brown love song, some say it was written about his break up with RiRi ...







Nicki Minaj feat Chris Brown- Right by myside ( out now)

Really love this song, i like it when Nicki Minaj tones it down, strips it back, so her vocals can shine, some of her songs with her alter egos like Barbs aka Barbara is a bit OTT, sounds crazy and childish. But i can understand she is trying to be different and edgy. To top it off Chris Brown is on the song, and I have to admit, he is looking sexy here lol! Oh and Naz (the rapper) is her love interest in the video, suppose they are dating in real life.. hmm ok, stop, i don't want to start any rumours, but if its true, you heard it here first!







By the way check out this song by Nicki Minaj - I am your leader, the video reminds me of the 90's rnb era, with Missy Elliott, Busta Rhymes, Da Brat, Foxy Brown, TLC and Lil Kim.







Oh and this is what i refer to when i say childish and OTT and its soo bad or funny, which way you take it that theres been many parodies on you tube on it.







Ashley Walters feat. Alesha Dixon - Your Love ( out now)

This song is really catchy, its out on 11th nov 2012, which is today, so i hope it makes it to the top 5 of next weeks official chart. Ashley walters (ex so solid crew member) has been away from the music scene for a couple of years now, but he's been keeping busy with acting, directing and producing. He's a man of many talents. I recently auditioned for one of his upcoming projects, a film called the Charlatans, which he will be directing. Just incase you are wondering, I didn't get a call back , but it was my first ever audition, i won't tell you what the films about, cause its not out yet, I could get sued or check wikipedia lol, but its gonna be great, maybe become a success like  Kidulthood and Adulthood.

MAYBELLINE FIT ME MINI FOUNDATION SAMPLE GIVEAWAY!

Hi guys, just watched a maybelline advert for a free giveaway of their new product fit me foundation, which also comes with a powder and concealer, matching the foundation number for your skintone. I am not a huge fan of foundation, primarily because it gets messy and makes me break out and can be cloggy. I do like a freebie so i'm gonna give it a try, you should too. Below is a link to the site, just follow the simple steps by choosing your shade/tone.  Since i'm dark skin, I ended up with 350 and 355, yes why not do it twice! The model for dark skins is Jessica White, apparently she wears shade 350 and she is not very dark. I'm quite apprehensive but i will see how it looks when the product arrives and let you know if it really is true to fit.

Beacuse its a sample, it will probably be quite small, im not sure of the size but each sample will last for 7 days. Not very long. Ive read a few reviews and some people say it's not good for oily skin and it's heavy and others like it saying it blends perfectly but yet again it does not last very long. I'm not sure about the retail price but it will probably be under £10, which is a bargain for a foundation. Hurry some of the fair and medium shades are out of stock!

If you have tried the sample, please comment below and let me know  why you liked it or didn't like it. P.S if you can also post a before and after pic that will be great.  The samples are available till the 30/5/2013, but hurry its actually for the first 150,00! Enjoy
