FIVE TRACKS YOU HAVE TO HEAR THIS WEEK #5

You know what this is all about now... check out my best tracks of the week right here...

1. Kanye West feat. Rihanna- 'All Of The Lights'

Kanye and Rihanna- need I say more? Absolutely love this song- Kanye's next release from new album 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' Not as hard as 'Power' or 'Runaway' but still a damn tune. Listen and enjoy...




2. Magnetic Man feat. John Legend- 'Gettin Nowhere'

Magnetic Man AND John Legend? Two of my actual favourite artists and I am NOT disappointed. The mix of the two genre's in amazing and Legend's vocals are as smooth as ever. This song= win.




3. Nicki Minaj feat. Drake- 'Moment 4 Life'

This is definitely the week for decent colabs- this time with Nicki and the ever-amazing Drake. It's a more chilled sound from the fringed goddess, but still as good as any of her other stuff. It features on her album 'Pink Friday' which is out now.




4. The Black Keys- 'Tighten Up'

This band has been around for aaaaaages- a decade in fact, but somehow haven't made it big yet! They're from Ohio and sound a bit like Kings Of Leon so I'm sure they'll be everyone's new favourite band pretty soon. This track is pretty darn good- and has over 5m views on youtube already, so they must be doing something right. Have a listen...




5. Funeral Party- 'Finale'

I keep meaning to put this is my '5 tracks of the week' and now I've finally got round to it! Such a tune from the LA Band. Enjoy :)

NEW KANYE AND JAY-Z TRACK!: H.A.M.

Wow is all I have to say about this track... WOWWWWWWWW

This song is crazy, epic, dark, sick and the rest. Honestly, it's like a cyber-space theatrical musical beat with some 'hard ass motherfuckerin' thrown over the top for good measure.

There's a semi-dubstep beat, choirs, pianos, digital effects... this track has the lot!

Honestly, it makes Kanye's 'Twisted Fantasy' album look like background music.

The collaboration is definitely more Kanye than Jay-Z, but no track can suffer from having the 'Jiggaman's' vocals on it.

The song is the first release from their upcoming album 'Watch The Throne', out in March.

Excited? I am!

FIVE SONGS YOU HAVE TO HEAR THIS WEEK #1

There really is some great music around right now, so I thought I'd bring you my favourite tracks of the week that you definitely should have in your life.

Have a listen and see what you think...

1. Kanye West- Runway

I actually can't stop listening to this track- it's SO GOOD. Mr West is definitely back in the building and he's 'doing it for the doucebags'.



2. Afrojack feat. Eva Simmons- Take Over Control

For all you dance lovers out there, you're gonna have a new favourite track with this one. At first it sounds like it's gonna be a generic dance tune, but you'll find yourself drawn in when it gets to it's 'take over control' hook. Definitely gonna be a new club smash.



3. Jamie Woon- Night Air

If you're looking for a cool tune to chill out to then this is definitely the one- it's so smooth it hurts! The track is currently Nick Grimshaw's song of the week and I can definitely see why- he's onto a winner here...



4. Katy Perry- Firework

Can this lady do no wrong? Going by this track she really can't... It's a little bit of a change of direction for the newly-wed star- leaning more to a dance-style than her usual kitsch pop but I really like it. If you like Kelly Rowland, you're definitely like this- check it out.



5. James Blake- Limit To Your Love

Okay, now this track is absolutely GORGEOUS. I mean, seeeeeriously good. You can literally feel yourself relax totally as your listen to Mr Blake's soothing vocals. Just don't fall asleep and miss the song!

KANYE RELEASES EPIC 34-MINUTE VIDEO

Kanye West has gone one better that Gaga and released a short film to promote the new tracks he's been releasing over the past couple of weeks.

The lengthy footage is an incredible 34 minutes long- beating Gaga's record for the 9-and-a-half-minute video for 'Telephone'.

As well as the music, it features some acting from the controversial star- as well as former Victoria Secret model Selita Ebanks in nude-coloured underwear (he knows how to keep his fans entertained!)

The music features all of the free tracks he released in his 'Good Friday' promotions earlier on in the year.
