New Music: Rebecca Black - My Moment (Video)

Rebecca Black is back with her second song, My Moment. Overall, I find this song much better and easier to listen to than Friday. She sings better here, similar to many pop songs that you hear on the radio nowadays. Strangely enough, this video has received over 412 000 dislikes compared to 231 000 likes as when I first viewed it.. I kind of like the song.. Listen to it and judge for yourself. :)

Michael Jackson's and Akon's Hold My Hand song was actually completed a year before MJ died

Michael Jackson may have passed away in late June 2009, but it seems that the late King of Pop is still producing hits even past his death. The latest single from Akon and Michael Jackson, Hold My Hand, has only just been released on radios and is very popular. Contrary to belief, "Hold My Hand" is actually a 2-and-a-half year old song. It was completed in June 2008, a year before Michael Jackson died.

A quick search online would uncover the "Hold My Hand" story. Michael Jackson was working with many musicians the few years leading to his death. In particular, he was collaborated more with Akon. They recorded "Hold My Hand" in June 2008. Interestingly, the song leaked onto YouTube, with videos of the songs appearing on June 30, 2008. Apparently the YouTube managed to remove all the videos containing the song. I did a quick search and the earliest video I could find was uploaded on Dec 4, 2008. (Video below)

I didn't find out what happened to the song since then and why it is only released recently when it is clearly completed, based on the video below. After Michael Jackson died in 2009, the news reported that some of his uncompleted music would be completed and released. Many people would therefore assume that "Hold My Hand" is one of those songs that was completed after his death. In actual fact, the song was only unreleased. Regardless, MJ fans should still appreciate his music, no matter when it was done.

New Music: Shayne Ward - Gotta Be Somebody (Video)

Shayne Ward released this single early November 2010. It's actually a cover of Nickelback's Gotta Be Somebody back in 2008, which I absolutely loved ever since I first heard the song on the radio. While I like some of Shayne Ward's songs, I very much prefer the original Nickelback's Gotta Be Somebody to Shayne's cover. There's no denying that Shayne Ward has an fantastic voice, but for some reason, he chose to go with a deliberately over-processed electronic voice in this one, very evidently present when he sings the first line in the song. This ultimately disappoints fans.

Overall, the song is rather high-pitched, a very big contrast against the low Nickelback's version. Shayne's version is still great, with energy and a catchy beat, but it is just not as powerful as the original. It should be out on Singapore radios in the coming weeks.

New Music: Rihanna ft Eminem - Love The Way You Lie (Part 2)

When I first heard "Love The Way You Lie" by Rihanna and Eminem a couple months back, I sort of have a feeling that there would be a follow up because of the way the song ended. Now it looks like there indeed is a continuation. Rihanna and Eminem have returned with part 2 of the hit song. This time, the song is slower and emotionally more intense than the previous, with Eminem really venting his anger out in his rap. Expect this song to hit local radio in the coming few weeks.

I didn't quite like the last mix I made, Shake Mix and Bake. It's not the songs, but rather the overall feel of the mix, I felt that lots of the transitions were shabbily done.

Medal of Honor Trailer ft Linkin Park (Video)

The Medal of Honor franchise has now moved into the modern warfare era, first started by Call of Duty and later followed by Battlefield. Now M.O.H. usually has a sub-title to differentiate their games, but this time, they're just putting this game out as Medal of Honor. Why? Maybe they're trying to move away from their past games. I don't know.

Well anyway, this is their feature trailer. It is set to The Catalyst by Linkin Park, one of my favourite bands. I'd say the trailer is nicely set to the music and seeing the gameplay footage makes me kind of want to play this game. ^.^

Video after the break.

New Music: Iyaz - So Big

One of my favourite RnB artist, Iyaz, is back with So Big. I really feel that his voice has a kind of uplifting feeling, especially so when you're feeling a bit down. You just feel more cheerful after listening to his songs.

New Music!

Hi! These are some of the music that I think are worth a listen. They are mostly hip hop/club music. I'll pick songs that new and might catch on. On top of that, I'll try to pick songs that are not released on local radio, otherwise, that's what the radio is for, isnt it? =P

NB: Clicking on the song names will lead you to the youtube video of that song. If there are any broken links, just let me know. =)
