An enjoyable performance, no doubt.

Hip-Hop heavyweight Eminem teams up Rihanna on ‘Love The Way You Lie’, a track lifted from his eagerly anticipated ‘Recovery’ LP (due June 22nd),

While Em excels on the guitar-driven mid-tempo, the same can not be said for runway RiRi, who attempts to do vocal acrobatics without posessing the necessary skills – resulting in a pain-inducing hook.

Still, on paper, this is a good look for both artists, which in itself could garner the track enough attention (from radio and iTunes) to ensure it be a hit.

We’ve been receiving many an email about a new Kelly Rowland cut which surfaced over the weekend, in the form of the Ne-Yo penned ‘Grown Ass Woman’. Interestingly enough, though, we’d heard the track hours before it seemingly started doing the rounds – opting not to post it due to what ( at the time) seemed like salicious leaks of Ms. Kelly’s new material.

However, it has today been confirmed that the Stargate produced track will now be serviced as Rowland’s new Stateside single instead of ‘Shake Them Haters Off’ (which may not actually make the album’s final tracklist). ‘Grown Ass Woman’ goes for adds on US Urban radio on June 29th.

A sassy, mid-tempo, which packs more of a punch lyrically than it does on the production tip, ‘Grown Ass Woman’ may just be that hit that Rowland has been seeking on home shores for sometime now. As much as it pains me to do, this does bare similarities to pal Beyonce’s ‘Irreplaceable‘; unsurprising in that it is the same team behind both songs. Not to be taken as a means of pitting the women against each other, the song’s comparability could very bode well for Rowland, for like ‘Irreplacebale’, ‘Grown Ass Woman’ boasts many a hook, is infectious, and radio food if I’ve ever heard it. Here’s hoping it does the trick.

Barbados’ Next Top Model, Rihanna, took centre stage at the ‘Rock in Rio’ festival last night in Madrid. The 22 year old fashionista ‘performed’ a set consisting of her previous hits, as well as new numbers from her lukewarmly received ‘Rated R’ LP.

Though Ms. Fenty gets kudos for at least trying to up her stage presence, those vocals are still criminal. She actually sounded like cats being microwaved for the most part. Not the business.

In any case, check out her strut her stuff to ‘Mad House and Hard’, ‘Rude Boy’, ‘Fire Bomb’, ‘Te Amo’, and ‘Rockstar 101’ below…
