NEW MUSIC: Kat DeLuna featuring Lil' Wayne ~ "Put It On"

After her first single "Unstoppable" finally started recieving some airwaves, Kat DeLuna is quickly planning her possible follow-up single called "Put It On" off her album ''Inside Out''! The song, which features rapper Lil' Wayne, is a nice pop / dance track, with an amazing beat. Even though it again uses auto-tune, it is organized in a nicer manner than last time. After a couple listens, this song actually becomes a pretty well-rounded song. Enjoy it!!

VIDEO PREMIERE: Akon featuring Colby O'Donis
& Kardinal Offishall ~ "Beautiful"

Hit-making producer and rapper Akon, has been on a roll with his latest album ''Freedom'' featuring the hit single "Right Now (Na Na Na)". The album also features his newest hit "Beautiful", which just had it's video released. The song is a great upbeat dance-r&b / hip-hop track with a 'beautiful' rhythm and flow. The video is pretty mellow, and simple. Of cousre featuring many beautiful girls, this video is actually a little disappointing for such a good song. Akon must be doing something right with the way his music shoots to the top of the charts! Enjoy the video!!

VIDEO PREMIERE: Flo Rida featuring Kesha ~ "Right Round"

After acheiving another number one for his song "Right Round", Flo Rida has finally come around to releasing a video for the track! The song, which is the lead single from his 2nd album entitled ''R.O.O.T.S.'' is a great, hip-hop song, with great pop and rock influence. The video is very cliché like most rap videos, but is decent enough to watch. Kesha, who is in the song, sadly does not make an appearance in the video, and is replaced by some other girl. Congratulations to Flo for his 2nd #1 in the U.S. in less than 2 years! Enjoy this!!

The video, like their other videos, is on the safe side, but is still fun to watch! I hope this charts well this! Enjoy the music video!!

~ "Walking on the Moon"

Rapper / producer The-Dream is set to release his 2nd LP ''Love vs. Money'' next month! Here we have a new song from him called "Walking on the Moon" featuring Kanye West, which he describes as bigger than Rihanna's "Umbrella". The song is a cool Michael Jackson-inspired pop / r&b track, with an addictive chorus! I doubt this will be bigger than "Umbrella", but I still think this can really blow up this spring! Enjoy the track!

VIDEO PREMIERE: Kanye West ~ "Welcome to the Heartbreak"

Kanye West has been on a great roll with his album ''808's & Heartbreak'' since its release in November. After 2 very successful singles, Kanye is releasing 3 singles all at once ''See You in My Nightmares", "Amazing", and finally "Welcome to the Heartbreak". "Welcome to the Heartbreak" is a nice synthpop / hip-hop song, with nice vocals from Kanye. The video follows the legacy of much of his previous videos. It features many different colors with almost illusion-type pictures. I doubt this track will get huge reception, as "Amazing" has already began to chart well. Enjoy the video though!!

VIDEO PREMIERE: T.I. featuring Justin Timberlake
~ "Dead and Gone"

Rapper T.I. has been very hard at work promoting his newest single "Dead & Gone" lately, before finding out if he will serve jail time in April. To boost the performance of the track, the video has come to help it. The song, featuring Justin Timberlake, is a midtempo hip-hop / pop track with swift lyrics from both the guys. The video is just like those for most raw urban videos, but is pretty decent for the song. I already smell his next smash hit! Enjoy!!

NEW MUSIC: Estelle ~ "Star"

After her very successful single "American Boy" with Kanye West, Estelle has been hard at work doing some promotional commercials for companies. One of her latest advertisements has featured her singing a song entitled "Star". This song has finally leaked in full, and here it is. The intro of it is nice, and the pop beat is nice, but her vocals can get a bit more of a re-touching IMO. This track in general is a bit of a disappointment, and I would not like to see this ona re-release of her album. Enjoy this, I guess!

HOT STORY: Chris Brown Is Being Investigated For Alleged Assault!

Los Angeles police are saying pop megastar Chris Brown has turned himself in to authorities investigating an alleged felony battery involving the singer. A Police officer stated that Brown walked into a station around 7 p.m. and was being interviewed by detectives. Smith said he was not in custody. Police say the 19-year-old singer and a woman widely believed to be his girlfriend, Rihanna, with whom he attended a pre-Grammy party the night before, were in a vehicle in the Hancock Park neighborhood early Sunday when they began arguing, and the argument escalated when they got out of the car. Police say the woman identified Brown as her attacker, but he was gone by the time officers arrived.

Both Brown and his girlfriend, fellow singer Rihanna, did not attend the 51st Grammy Awards tonight. Rihanna was scheduled to perform a song. A representative for the Grammy's said that she has a "slightly bruised face", and would not attend. This is really sad for Rihanna, and if Chris Brown was her attacker, rest assure this blog will stop posting anything about him. La Place de Musique wishes her all the best and hopes that she recovers soon!

LIVE PERFORMANCE: T.I. featuring Justin Timberlake
~ "Dead & Gone"

After 2 very successful singles from his album ''The Paper Trail'', T.I. has officially moved on to his fourth official single "Dead & Gone" featuring Justin Timberlake. The track, which is a cool pop / rap song, was performed by the two today at the Grammy's. The performance was my favorite from my night, and both guys did a very nice job rapping, singing, and playing the piano. This song is going to dominate the charts this month! Enjoy the performance!

NEW MUSIC: Ray J ~ "Sexy Ladies"

With the release of his new reality show on Vh1 called For the Love of Ray J, Ray J is releasing an official soundtrack for the show! Here we have his first official single "Sexy Ladies". The song itself is a pretty bland r&b tune, and very repetitive. This track is actually quite a disappointment since the show is very entertaining, and because his last single "Sexy Can I" was so catchy! Enjoy this though!

VIDEO PREMIERE: Lady GaGa ~ "Eh Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)"

After her hit songs "Just Dance" and "Poker Face", Lady GaGa is slowing things down with her newest single "Eh Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)". The song is a cool midtempo electro-pop song, with a cute vibe to it. Here in the video, the cutesy mood continues and the video seems to be set in the Italian areas of New York City, where GaGa was actually raised. Her outfits in the video are also very creative, adding a lot of excitement to the video. I don't think this song will become a hit, become we never know! Enjoy!

VIDEO PREMIERE: The Pussycat Dolls ~ "Bottle Pop"

About 4 months ago The Pussycat Dolls released their sophomore album ''Doll Domination'', which as already spawned 2 hit singles! The Dolls have gotten around and finally released their fourth single "Bottle Pop", which is a hot pop / r&b song already making the charts. The video for the song is a fun, dance video, and though doesn't have much of a storyline, is still actually pretty nice. The video doesn't feature Snoop Dogg, like the song, but instead features a new verse. Here is to another hit for them! Enjoy this!!
