With Christina Aguilera’s ‘Back To Basics: Live From Down Under’ tour DVD set to hit shelves in the US tomorrow, this new performance of her club smash ‘Dirrty’ (from the tour) has hit the net. Aside from the unnecessarily long intro, it was a great performance. It really highlighted that not (m)any of the females out today could compete (or come close) on the vocal side of things. Kinda random, but I think she should revisit this sound on her next LP because that ‘Back To Basics’ album was a mess.

What do you think of the performance?

R&B star Alicia Keys performed a medley of hits and new material during her set at yesterday’s Superbowl Pre-Show on the University of Phoenix Stadium’s field. I really enjoyed the performance; Alicia showed out vocally, stage presence etc. Awesome.

Though there is no affirmative release date or info about Usher’s much-anticipated new album, material from the LP is surfacing thick and fast. Some of you may have heard a snippet of the Polow Da Don produced ‘Love In The Club’ that was floating around last year. The full version of the track has since hit the net and, I must say, that I’m liking it. Judging by the mid-tempo cut, as well as the other material I’ve heard, Usher is evolving musically, which is great.

Definitely a song-of-the-times, fellas around the world knew they had to fix up after this one lol. With TLC having paved the way for the barrage of girl-groups that would follow their blueprint, the ladies and their achievements will go down in history. They really don’t ‘make’ them like this anymore. R.I.P Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopez.

Trey Songz recently released a new remix video for his hit single ‘Can’t Help But Wait’ – featuring rapper Plies. The track will appear on the forthcoming ‘Step Up 2′ soundtrack.’ Video aside (it’s really not that great), I’m hoping Trey gets the recognition he deserves this year. The guy is overly talented, yet so slept on.

Check out this video of R&B songstress Kelly Rowland performing her UK smash ‘Work’ (Freemasons Mix) – on BBC’s Sound show, here in the London. As a big fan of the original version of the track, I’ve also come to really like the Freemasons mix – which is set to climb into the top 3 on the Official single chart tomorrow. About the performance, Kelly did a great job…vocals, sass and all the rest. Good stuff.

Though it seems Ciara has wrapped up the promotion for her most recent project ‘The Evolution’, she isn’t heading out of the limelight just yet. The ‘Goodies’ singer laid down new vocals for a remix to Janet’s ‘Feedback’, as well as Missy Elliott’s ‘Ching-A-Ling’.
