By the end of the summer we should see the release of Mario's fourth album ''And Then There Was Me''. His first single off the album is a song called "Break Up" featuring the rappers Gucci Mane and Sean Garrett, and here is the song's video. The track is a good, uptempo hip-hop / r&b song with a really memorable chorus. The video is a pretty generic, r&b love story, but I enjoyed it a lot. We also finally see a different side of Mario, which features swagga! I think with correct promotion, the urban charts will eat this song up during the summer. Enjoy the video!

NEW MUSIC: Shakira ~ "She Wolf"



Last month, The Black Eyed Peas released their album ''The E.N.D.'' led off by their hit singles "Boom Boom Pow" and "I Gotta Feeling". Here is new unreleased song from the album which didn't make the cut called "Complicated (Be That Way)". The song is an upbeat, reggae fusion / hip-hop song with a fun club feel. The song lacks a bit of vocals from all the members except Fergie, but I liked it a lot. They should of released this, but it is their loss. Enjoy this exclusive song!

Pop / r&b singer Beyoncé has been touring the world these past couple months on her I Am ... Tour, which will be finishing it's American Leg off in Las Vegas early next month. Here is the video for her sixth single off the album ''I Am ... Sasha Fierce'', a song called "Sweet Dreams". The track is a cool, upbeat electro-pop / r&b song, and one of my favorites from B. The video is the first Sasha Fierce video to be in color, and is pretty nice. It's not how I would of pictured it, but it still fits the song. I know this should do better than some of her other singles which have flopped recently. Enjoy!

EDIT: Excuse The Backstreet Boys video which starts after the Beyoncé video. I don't know why it is there.

Another artist releasing her sophomore album at the end of July is Brooke Hogan with ''The Redemption''. Her first single "Falling" featuring Stack$ can now be considered a flop, and she has moved on to her second single "Hey Yo" featuring Colby O'Donis. Here is a new track off the album called "Ruff Me Up" featuring Flo Rida, which is being highly claimed as the third single. The song is a hot, upbeat urban-pop / dance song, similar to Britney Spears' "Womanizer". I love this song a lot, and can seriously make Brooke a household name. Enjoy!

Near the end of this month, 2007's American Idol winner Jordin Sparks will release her second album ''Battlefield''. The first single off the album "Battlefield" is slowly climbing the charts, but is not the hit we thought it would be. Here is a song of the album called "Emergency (911)", which is a great uptempo electro-pop song with a bit of a rock-influence. This is way better than her other material, and should definitely be her second single! Enjoy this!

Ever since the release of his album ''Relapse'' back in May, Eminem has had great sales, and has now officially moved to his fourth single "Beautiful". The song is a great, motivational midtempo hip-hop song with a little bit of a pop / ballad influence on it. The video is shot in his hometown of Detroit, and has a more serious side than some of his other videos. This song and video show a different side of him, which I am loving! Enjoy the video!

It's has been officially a week and a day since the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson's death. He had been in the midst of rehearsing for his upcoming concert tour days before he passed. Here is a live performance of Jackson's last ever time singing on stage. He is a seen singing and dancing to his 1996 hit "They Don't Care About Us", a fun hip-hop / dance track. He seems perfectly healthy, and in a great condition. This was shot on June 23rd, just 2 days before his death. He will be missed, and be sure to look out for more stuff that will leak from his rehearsals soon.
