I liked this performance; it seems Kelly has improved on her live vocals. The Patti Labelle ‘Love, Need and Want You’tie-in (the song Dilemma samples) was a nice touch. Although, it didn’t help that the crowd was almost completely dead. {LOL at the mess dressed in white..’Watch It’}

Mya Performing ‘I Am’

Watching this performance made me realise how much I actually like the song – why isn’t this a single? Anyway, the performance was pretty good. Mya’s vocals were on-point and the song works well live. As was with Kelly, the lack of crowd response slightly took away from the overall performance. I don’t understand why people go to these shows to sit silent and unresponsive.

Fresh from a recent promotional stint in Europe, Amerie performed in Korea this week. The ‘One Thing’ singer- who is half Korean herself – performed her current single ‘Take Control’ on the M Countdown show and did a great job. It’s only recently that I realised how good a live performer she actually is. For the most part, the choreography was really on-point.

The video for Eve’s new single ‘Tambourine’ debuted last night on BET and Launch. I’m loving the video already; it’s a straight concept video and Eve is looking ON-POINT throughout. The video was directed by Melina – who directed many of Beyonce’s new videos from the B’Day re-release. She definitely did a better job with this E-V-E vid. The single is taken from Eve’s upcoming album ‘Here I Am’ (due later this year).

The video for Mario’s lead single – ‘How Do I Breathe’ – from his new album ‘Go’ premiered tonight. Whilst the song has grown on me, the video is a disappointment. After Mario being out of the limelight for a few years, I would have expected his label to spend more on this video; yet it comes across kinda cheap-looking. Personally I would have preferred Mario to stray from the sound of his biggest hit ‘Let Me Love You'(which ‘How Do I Breathe’ attempts to replicate) and come with something fresh. Still, there’s hope with some of the great tracks I’ve heard from the set such as ‘Kryptonite’ and ‘Crying Out For Me’. ‘Go’ drops July 30th.

Hot or Not?
