rolling pop 2011

Approve of Wynter love but.

wedding singer the film. you know, stuff that sounds like phoenix or whatever always and forever pushing that easy ilx button.

Wynter evinces that?

just that one song 'still getting younger'.

Oh right, yeah I see that.

'still getting younger' totally pushing my easy ilx button

huh i am not sure about this new demi lovato song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQoKMpPd43c&feature=related

has anybody discussed this yet? rev queued it up in the outloud room the other day and I thought it was really lush and pretty. You guys like this?

Yes the Demi song was nice on first listen but it's nowhere near as good as previous ballads like World of Chances!

i've changed my mind about "skyscraper"! love it now. the vox make it, so raw~~

"pumped up kicks" is selling surprisingly strongly, anyone know if it's crossing over to top 40 stations?

that's where i've heard it

yeah it's doing okay on some of the top 40 charts right now...it'll do better in a couple years when lupe fiasco samples it, though

haha

I can actually hear the entire resulting song in my head.

all the talk about bullets and stuff is a little edgy for lupe, though, maybe he can make the song be about bicycling

lol ship

that wiynter gordon song is really nice! voice kind of reminds me of jazmine?

Yall know "Dirty Talk" right?

Demi's in the studio with Timbaland and Missy. Don't really trust Timbo anymore, but feel-good vibes on twitter give me hope.

Words completely fail me

loooooool!

i think i liked one mohombi song, i forgot what it was called though

i assume it was leaked on the day "swagger jagger" was released deliberately - like, here is her actually good music

hey now that's more like it

although it does make me think of das scherz's 'supervillain' - is it actually produced by madd scientist perchance?

ah it's by that kid that did 'whip my hair'

excellent producer!

i don't know who produced what on the album but i get a real lil mama vibe from it - kind of like someone noticed how much potential there was in that whole teenpop-rap thing despite lil mama doing nothing, and that it'd be perfect to shift on to cher. the other really amazing one i've heard is "grow up" which is summery and exuberant like "superhero" and has lol busta on it. "dub on the tracks" is hilarious lolstep with ghetts and dot rotten but iirc it kind of works anyway cuz it's so ridic (only heard it in PRs' offices)

oh yeah if she'd got through to the x factor final she'd have done boom! shake the room/whip my hair

Yeah that's really great. makes the fact "Swagger Jagger" is an existing thing even more o_0

clips collated here if anyone else is interested

agree with the lil mama vibe but i will have to have a think about how much potential there is in it

can't be bovd to find the uk thread but i am supporting these kids just cos of the name

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pARrzv_3I-o

silly mid-off already sounds like a uk rapper name come to think of it

i kinda like swagger jagger :(((

i don't think it's irredeemable - beat is secretly great in a basic post-"pon de floor" way, middle 8 is just straight-up great - but the clementine interpolation just needs to not exist, it's so cringey, and the verses are waaaay underdone (even with clementine it could've been salvaged by verses with, just...more words in them)

has been very annoying having to say "yes but she has better songs than swagger jagger i promise" so much recently, very pleased this leaked.

wow that is awesome! smh @ them releasing "swagger jagger" when they had THAT.

lol swagger jagger topping the midweek charts o_O

the rabid hatred that song has inspired (esp on the internet) is amazing, i am actually impressed, especially considering it is doing really well. i luv songs that demand attn from tha h8rz

i argued with her PR about releasing it as the lead single after hearing the other songs, he was like...none of the others would have got anywhere near the sheer attention "swagger jagger" has. idk, i think it was a given it'd chart high whatever they released, even diana vickers managed a no 1 off the back of x factor.

so the nayer solo career is happening, and here is the debut single, and it's...GOOD

al's column this week is awesome

http://t.co/b6oBkFl

Absolutely

thanks! honorable mention to deej for partially spurring the idea with all those "this yo gotti song is a BIG DEAL, it has 2 million hits on youtube" arguments

just read it, yay al!

rofl xp

Titles on Demi Lovato's new album include "You're My Only Shorty", with feature appearances from the likes of Jason DeRulo and Iyaz.

it's kinda weird how she's apparently sticking with the R&B direction but the lead single is "Skyscraper"
