Preview Brandy's 'Human' You can now preview Brandy’s much anticipated new album ‘Human’ over at Amazon.com, ahead of its December 9th release. I must say, it’s sounding great. However I’ll reserve my judgement until the I hear the album in its entirety.

The video for the Sugababes latest single ‘No Can Do’ premiered this week. Put simply, the Motown inspired song is head and shoulders above the mediocrity that was their last single ‘Girls’; the video isn’t bad either – although it wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. Here’s hoping the song reignites interest in their ‘Catfights & Spotlights’ LP, which hasn’t fared that great on the charts.

Keri Hilson’s brand new video for ‘Turnin’ Me On (ft. Lil’ Wayne)’ premiered moments ago. The Erik White directed clip joins an impressive collection of vids Ms. Hilton has shot to promote her ‘In A Perfect World’ LP. I’m really hoping this one catches on, as Keri is very deserving of success IMO. Tidbit: Plies and Polow Da Don make cameos.

Randomness: Is it me or is Keri really underrated in the looks department? She looks stunning here.

Beyonce Lines Up 2 New Singles It appears as though Beyonce will be serving up 2 new singles at a go with her ‘I Am…Sasha Fierce’ LP. The follow-up to current hits ‘If I Were A Boy’ and ‘Single Ladies’ have been confirmed as ‘Halo’ and ‘Diva’, the latter of which replaces ‘Ego’ as one of the next singles. Videos for both releases will be shot next week.
Considering I see ‘Halo’ as being one of the best tracks Beyonce has recorded in long while, I’m definitely pleased it’s receiving the single treatment. As for ‘Diva’, I’m sure the video will be r-e-a-l interesting LOL.

Janet To Tour Japan Despite all the drama which surrounded the US leg of Janet Jackson’s critically acclaimed ‘Rock Witchu’ tour, it has been announced that the 42 year old superstar will be taking to tour to Japan next year.
In her first tour stop there since 2002, Janet will perform in Saitama, Osaka, Nagoya and Fukuoka from Feb 14th to 22th respectively. {Source}

Though things remain up in the air about possible extra US dates, it’s great to see Janet catering to her International audience. Here’s hoping her next stop is good ol’ sunny England LOL…

Peep Rihanna’s new commercial for Gucci’s GUCCI Tattoo Heart Collection to Benefit UNICEF. She looks great.

This got me thinking though…Isn’t this the idealist of scenarios? Being able to watch Ms. Fenty without all that jarring pig squealing she does.

Solange really is rolling out the videos from her critically acclaimed ‘Sol-Angel & The Hadley Street Dreams’ – the latest being for ‘T.O.N.Y’. Put simply, the video is great. There’s an interesting twist at the end, which will explain a lot to those who don’t understand the lyrics right off the bat. Fantastic video.

Review in a bit…

In the meanwhile…

What do you think of the video?

Former Danity Kane vixen Aubrey O’Day was interviewed at some random club opening in Miami recently. When asked about her post-Diddy/DK career, O’Day gushed about a number of projects she has in the pipeline – including her debut solo album.

I’m left scratching my head for a number of reasons. Not least because I’ve heard nothing of a new record label/deal Aubrey has signed (to). Will the album drop via Bad Boy? What’s more there have been whispers as of late that Aubrey was spotted laughing with none other than Diddy at a Los Angeles clothing store recently. A TV stunt, perhaps? Who knows. I’m just thinking the best outcome for all involved would be for Danity Kane to come back together as a five-piece. IMO, solo efforts, at this junction, is a no no. Too much drama surrounding the group for anyone of them to breakout solo. Never say never though…

Brandy Covers JET Peep Brandy on the cover for the latest issue of JET magazine. Looking good…

It’s undeniably Beyonce Week this week, the week in which her ‘I Am…Sasha Fierce’ LP arrived in stores across the globe. BET’s 106 & Park set aside the entire hour show for Bouncy, who was both interviewed and performed (‘If I Were A Boy & ‘Single Ladies’). You can check the performances by clicking here. Part 1 of the interview is above, with Parts 2 & 3 below:

Part 2

Part 3

As is becoming the norm these days, she came across very well.

R&B crooner Avant is set to release his self-titled LP on December 9th, his first for new label Capitol Records. The album is being preceded by ‘Break Ya Back (In A Good Way)’, the video for which premiered on MySpace today. Put simply, funds must be tight over at his label because if that isn’t the cheapest looking video I’ve seen, I don’t know what is. On a more positive note, the actual song isn’t bad at all.
