Hello everyone. ICYMI, our very own diva songstress, Dayang Nurfaizah just released her latest single "Lelaki Teragung" recently. In conjunction with the latest effort, I was among the few lucky people who got invited to a private live preview of this song by Dayang herself. Thank you Indigital management for that. Ok, moving on to the main topic. "Lelaki Teragung" is another powerful ballad adding up to Dayang's existing impressive ballad collection. According to the lady herself, the song was a challenge for her for few good reasons. First, the title "Lelaki Teragung" (The Greatest Man) is very heavy in a sense that she does not have any specific "Lelaki Teragung" to dedicate this song to. So, to find the right emotion to sing it was a challenge. I will say she did it super well! Another reason is of course, the arrangement of the song itself. Another powerful ballad very few singers can tackle nowadays so kudos to Dayang Nurfaizah for...

Queen B is back and she has always coming back with a thunder. This time she brings "Lemonade" to quench the thirst for her new music. Numbers have rolling in and from what is being reported, the thirst for Queen B's new effort is super high. Setting to top the Billboard 200 chart next week with more than 500k copies of pure album sales, what else can we say. Just give the throne to her already. Adding on with streaming counts, Bey would open with more than 600k copies of album sales altogether which is crazy knowing that the album was released on Tidal which has only like 3 million subs to date. Beyhive, you guys have done great I'm sure Queen B is damn proud of all of you.

Just when we thought we have to wait much longer for new music from Kesha, this miracle happens. Following a surprise performance by Kesha with Zedd at Coachella, Kesha releases this new track produced by Zedd just recently. Kesha first teases her animals (her fans) with the cover art of the new track with hashtag #TrueColors as caption on Instagram and nothing more. It made the fans wonder what the picture really means and thankfully, it is as expected; a cover art for her new track.  With this new release from Kesha, despite her ongoing legal battle with producer Dr. Luke and her recent denial in injunction for her to record outside Kemosabe by judge, is definitely a relief for everyone especially the animals. The song, although kinda dancy and house music (well Zedd is the producer), carries meaningful lyrics that touches the heart of many who follow Kesha's career. This shows some hope for her and we the fans really hope to hear more of her in the future.  Take a ...

The long wait is over with the official release of Yuna's latest effort "Crush" music video featuring Usher, today just few hours ago. Honestly speaking, I was among millions of Yuna's fans who got excited for the music video. Not only because it features Hollywood A-list, Usher, but also because the song itself is so damn good. To me it should be the first single instead of "Places To Go". But I am not a music expert so I am just laying my thoughts down about it. Ok, moving on to the music video, the video was shot in black and white, like "Places To Go" music video and you guessed it, slo-mo is the major drive for the music video as well. Well, I think you can expect that knowing that the song is a slow, relaxing kinda song so using slo-mo is not an issue here. I think I don't wanna comment so much about it. You guys should watch it and tell me about what you guys think instead. If you ask me, I love the music video and I enjoy watching...

Kris Allen is back with his brand new album "Letting You In" . Following his past release "Horizon" which came out a little quiet, this 2009 American Idol winner is here again with his new flavour. How good is this album going to be? I'm about to find out real soon. Before that, few quick info on this album. It was launched on 18th March, about a month ago with no preceding singles of any sort. A very daring move I shall say. The album comes with 10 tracks and takes about 37mins to listen to. Ok so let's get going with this album. The album starts with "Love Will Find You" . This song really gives you the picture of how the entire album will go about. Kris is going for something like the 70s 80s kinda songs and kinda country in a way too. It's kinda different with his previous album "Thank You Camelia" which I think more of a pop rock. "Letting You In" is still very much a pop rock album (I think) but with the to...

Jennifer Lopez is making everyone knows that she ain't no mama to no one with her new single "Ain't Your Mama". The song will see a live performance from JLo on Idol stage tonight (lucky those in US) so make sure you guys stay tuned. Im sure it's gonna be awesome. The song rejoice Jlo's and her latin roots but with a new pop touch, something that we love from JLo. I think Im saying this on behalf of everyone that the music video is highly anticipated. Sure to be an instant Youtube/Vevo viral. Take a listen on JLo's new song her and tell me what you think of it yah. PEACE! P/ s; Meghan Trainor wrote the song!
