The Weeknd has got to be one of the most creative people in music right now. Whether it’s with his fresh brand of pop, collaborations with other artists, or movie-style music videos, he’s certainly breaking the mold of the standard expectations of a pop star. This week, the “Starboy” singer is doing something new once again with his short film M A N I A, which debuts today.
Even though it’s a little early for it to be socially acceptable to listen to Christmas music, Karmin doesn’t care. The pop duo, who have made a career out of crafting incredible covers, jump into the holiday spirit by taking on Mariah Carey’s Christmas classic, “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”
DNCE are hot on the heels of unleashing their first ever album, and as it turns out, it’s one of the best pop efforts to come out this year. They’ve got a pretty catchy lead single that they’ve been promoting in “Body Moves,” too, and it's been making its way up the Pop charts a little bit more every day. To help it climb even quicker, the band recently appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to perform the track live.
Matthew Koma’s comeback is in full force ever since releasing his latest single, “Kisses Back.” The electropop jam was a breath of fresh air from the “Clarity” hit maker, and it was about time that he finally made an effort into getting his promising solo career back on track. Now, to add to the growing hype, Koma has dropped the music video for the new song to give us some eye candy for the ear candy.
People just can’t get enough of The Weeknd - even other musicians. He’s taken the industry by storm with the release of new music off his upcoming record, but the lead single, “Starboy,” is really the one responsible for turning heads. And, what better way to celebrate its success than to cover the song? That’s how Panic! At The Disco probably feels, as they recently covered the hit track for BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge.
If Icona Pop make you think of one thing, it’s dancing. The electro-pop duo have tunes that’ll make feet move all night long, and their new single, “Brightside,” isn’t any different. After releasing the song last month, the girls are dropping a super fun music video to accompany it.
Good things come to those who wait, and A Tribe Called Quest have been waiting for a very long time. After over 20 years, a hiatus that spanned nearly just as long, and the untimely death of member Phife Dawg, the iconic hip-hop group have another number one album with their recently released record, We Got It From Here… Thank You 4 Your Service.
Kanye West’s Saint Pablo tour has been a pretty huge success since the first leg kicked off this past August, but it wasn’t without its fair share of controversy. Whether it involved long winded rants about Drake, Jay Z, or Donald Trump - or the numerous times West canceled shows - going to one of the tour dates seemed to be a gamble of sorts. Now, following a string of canceled shows, a representative confirms that all of the 20+ remaining dates for the tour have been canned. Refunds will be granted at point of purchase.
There’s no question that Bruno Mars is one of the cockiest people in music. His new album, 24k Magic, will surely go down as one of the cockiest albums of the year - hell, maybe even of all-time. Mars is a guy who can get away with being absent from releasing new material for four years, only to come back somehow bigger and better than ever and survive the incredible pressure of following up a song that got certified Diamond.
Days after debuting the newly remixed version of “Slumber Party” featuring singer Tinashe, Britney Spears drops the music video to accompanying the chilled-out pop track.
