SINGLE REVIEW: Lady Gaga – Perfect Illusion

I think it’s very important to remember that Lady Gaga has never been the type of artist who has done what you expect or obliged with current trends. So if you want a new “Bad Romance” then you are deluded and if you are expecting her to do an EDM/Pop banger then that would just…

SINGLE REVIEW: The Black Eyed Peas – #WHERESTHELOVE

“Where Is The Love” is probably one of The Black Eyed Peas’ most iconic songs and for good reasons and while there was a lot of heart behind this re-release I have to ask; was it really necessary? I get the political movement as to why it was re-released and think that the meaning behind…

SINGLE REVIEW: Zara Larsson – Ain’t My Fault

  Zara Larsson is the voice/future pop princess behind two of your favourite songs of the summer just past with the infectious “Lush Life” and “Never Forget You” (featuring MNEK). With her longly awaited international debut album slated for a late 2016 release she’s just dropped the offical second single. “Ain’t My Fault” is a…

SINGLE REVIEW: Tkay Maidza – Carry On

It’s been three years in the making but Tkay Maidza is finally dropping her highly anticipated debut album at the end of October. The self titled release is a collection of fourteen unreleased tracks lead by new single “Carry On” feat Killer Mike. Now this is a bold move after having four distinctive and successful…

SINGLE REVIEW: You Me At Six – Night People

For the past eight years You Me At Six have been delivering you the same pop-rock sound, just with different lyrics. Their last album “Caviler Youth” was a bitter disappointment of uninspired lyrics and flat hooks. With the announcement of their forthcoming fifth studio album “Night People” I’m not going to lie and say I…

ALBUM REVIEW: Frank Ocean – Blonde

To say I’m confused with what is going on within the Frank Ocean camp is an understatement. Not only did he release a visual album through Apple Music with Universal Music called “Endless” the next day he released an entirely different album independently through Apple Music. W HA T. So you say we’ve waited 4…

SINGLE REVIEW: Dua Lipa – Blow Your Mind (Mwah)

Dua Lipa has dropped the catchiest pop song of 2016 and prepare for it to not leave your head anytime soon. “Blow Your Mind (Mwah)” is the next instalment in Lipa’s climb to the top of the charts following the massive breakthrough success of “Be The One” and “Hotter Than Hell”. The structure of the…

SINGLE REVIEW: Bridgit Mendler – Atlantis

I’m a bit confused by the direction that Bridgit Mendler is going towards for her longly anticipated follow up to her debut album “Hello My Name Is..”. And yes, whilst I’m aware that record was released under her contract with Disney I didn’t expect her direction to be so… erm.. drastic once she went independent….

EP REVIEW: Carly Rae Jepsen – E.mo.tion Side B

Carly Rae Jepsen’s sophomore studio album “E.mo.tion” is the gift that keeps on giving. After a successful year with the hit singles “Run Away With Me” and “I Really Like You” as well as the beginning of the “Queen Of” memes she’s ready to impress all over again. To celebrate the year anniversary of the…

ALBUM REVIEW: Britney Spears – Glory

If we pretend that her dismal 2013 album “Britney Jean” doesn’t exist then you can say that Britney Spears has released a strong and versatile collection of records over the past 17 years. And her ninth studio album “Glory” introduces a new maturity and growth to her sound. Working alongside some of the industries hottest…
