Pop collective JLS are set to release their self-titled US debut in less than two weeks time. Arriving in stores via their Stateside label Jive, the group’s US fans (if they have any at all) can get their hands on the LP on August 3rd.

With the Aston and co’s’ Stateside promo push yielding little of anything, it’ll be real interesting to see what first week numbers they do. As I’ve said many a time, JLS are getting away murder over here – something I can’t see the US taking to.

Tidbit: I still “can’t” with that album cover. Ortise..SMH..always doing too damn much.

Check out the official cover for Usher‘s new EP ‘Versus’. The record, which hits stores on August 24th, features collaborations with the likes of Jay-Z, Ciara, Bun B, and Pitbull.

The cover looks cheap as hell. I can’t hate on his label, though. From the tacky artwork, to the lack of any new promotional shots, it’s clear they aren’t spending money on anything they don’t need to,  especially when – given ‘Raymond vs Raymond‘s’ success – ‘Versus’ will likely be a big seller anyway. That said, where has the creativity gone?

As reported earlier, Leona Lewis is currently hard at work on her 3rd studio album. Now the singer, who has reportedly teamed up with David Guetta, Ne-Yo and J.R. Rotem, has now brought producer Dallas Austin into the mix. Austin is known for his work with TLC (‘Creep‘), Blu Cantrell (‘Hit ‘Em Up Style’) and many others. {Source}

Let’s see if Lewis’ new found sass and Austin’s skill can create magic. Either way, it’s refreshing to see that she’s not putting her fate in the hands of the increasingly redundant Ryan Tedder.
