The force known as Beyonce may be on a hiatus from the music industry, yet she certainly knows how to make an impact in her ‘absence’. One need not look further than her smoking new ad for the Fall 2010 range of her and her mother’s ‘Dereon’ clothing line. Fierce.

R&B star Ne-Yo will no doubt be celebrating tonight after his latest single ‘Beautiful Monster’ stormed to the top of the Official UK Singles Chart.

This marks the third time the singer-songwriter has hit number one on the chart – with previous singles ‘Closer’ and ‘So Sick’ enjoying the same status. What’s more, the song’s sales have pushed Ne-Yo’s total UK singles sales past the two million mark.

Though ‘Beautiful Monster’ stands as my least favourite release from Ne-Yo, he’s clearly doing his thing at present. More power to him.

Diana King’s 90’s classic ‘Shy Guy’ is this week’s From The Vault jam. The song was included on both her ‘Tougher Than Love’ album as well as the ‘Bad Boys’ movie soundtrack. ‘Shy Guy’ proved to be Jamaican singer’s biggest hit, peaking at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping several charts around the world including the Official UK Singles Chart where it climbed to #2.

All anybody could do when this song comes on the radio is dance and sing hysterically in traffic. The 90’s era of music all always be remembered as a time when timeless songs such as this were the norm and not the exception. It’s a shame that King did not have further success on the international scene though because she has a phenomenal voice and the looks to match.
