SINGLE REVIEW: Tove Lo – Glad He’s Gone
After the experimental chapter that was ‘Blue Lips’, Swedish singer-songwriter Tove Lo is heading back towards the commercially friendly pop that ‘Lady Wood’ floated in. ‘Glad He’s Gone’ may have a mainstream approach but she still holds onto a lot of attitude and bluntness that has made fans fall in love with her over the…

I never thought the day would come where Diplo and Charli XCX would do a cover of a Spice Girls song, but I am so grateful it has. The collaborative single ‘Spicy’ with Herve Pagez hears the three artists reimagining the iconic Spice Girls smash hit, ‘Wannabe’. Transforming it into a Latin inspired EDM bop,…

Cheryl is one of the worlds most underrated pop stars and that’s a sad fact. The ex Girls Aloud vocalist had one of the best debut pop album’s with ‘3 Words’, that no one seems to want to remember. But thanks to a string of successful singles and pop culture references, Cheryl is back with…
