Rumored to be the last single from Rihanna’s ‘Good Girl Gone Bad’ album, the video for ‘Hate That I Love You’ premiered today on the singer’s website. I’ve long said how I’m not feeling the song, but having seen the video I’m liking it a little more. The vid is kinda simple, yet does the song justice.

Ok, so I’ve been less than thrilled with alot of what Nicole Scherzinger has had on offer as a solo artist and this song/video has done nothing to change that. ‘Baby Love’ is the 2nd single to be lifted from Scherzinger’s ‘Her Name Is Nicole’ album. Put simply, neither the track or the video are up-to-par; everything seems in place for Nicole to be a solo superstar e.g. the girl-group leader, label backing etc, yet she has yet to deliver anything of substance. This cookie-cutter mush isn’t likely to propel her to the heights she is capable of achieving.

R&B superstar Beyonce continues her assault on the endorsement scene, this time starring in a commercial for American Express. Though I don’t tend to care for things like this, I enjoyed the ad.
What do you think of the commercial?
Continuing her promo blitz through Europe, Jennifer Lopez performed her new single ‘Do It Well’ here in the UK yesterday (September 22nd) on nighttime talk show ‘Parkinsons’. It’s good to see that she’s upped her live singing and she was solid vocally throughout. However, the performance lacked any real energy – ‘Do It Well’ is a dance track, yet she didn’t do much of that. Jenny knows she was wrong for that mess of an outfit too.
What do you think of the performance?
Check out Missy Elliott in the first of a number of ads she’ll star in as part a campaign with Doritos. The jokes kinda write themselves with this one lol. Still, it’s good to see Missy doing her thing with the endorsements.
What do you think of the commercial?
With the release of Jennifer Lopez’s new album ‘Brave’ drawing ever-nearer (UK: October 8th & US: October 9th), more new promo shots for the CD have surfaced. I’m liking the whole futuristic feel the pics have to them. Here’s hoping she delivers with the album itself too.
Mariah Carey attended the VH1 Save The Music Foundation’s 10th Anniversary Gala earlier this week (September 20th) at the Lincoln Center, New York City. The renown diva was honoured for her contributions to the Foundation, which donates instruments to public schools and helps fund music education programs.
Following the surprise announcement of Jay-Z’s forthcoming ‘American Gangster’ LP earlier this week, the CD’s lead single has surfaced. Though not a bad track, Jay will have to do better than this if he is to convince people the project is worthwhile. Put simply, the Def Jam president has fared much better on other tracks – in terms of his delivery. What’s more Pharrell’s efforts on the production side of things come across kinda weak. I’m starting to think Jay would have been better off retired (for real); his ‘out-of retirement’ LP ‘Kingdom Come’ didn’t live up to expectations and this new track doesn’t indicate his new material will be anything to rave about.The video for Ja Rule’s new single ‘Body’ premiered yesterday (September 20th) on BET. Considering Ja is attempting to restore his tattered career, this single/video is unlikely to generate any interest around his upcoming album ‘The Mirror (due November 13th). The vid is kinda ‘blah’ and doesn’t really go anywhere – the same will be the case for Ja’s career if he doesn’t fix up soon.

In somewhat of a surprising news, it has been announced that Jay-Z will release a new full-length album on November 6th. Titled ‘American Gangster’, the CD’s theme was inspired by the upcoming Denzel Washington movie of the same name (set to hit theatres November 2nd). The rapper was reportedly taken with how much the film mirrored past aspects of his life and subsequently decided to record an album with a similar concept. Be on the lookout for the album’s first single – the Pharrell produced ‘Blue Magic’ – which should be debuting anytime from now. {Source}
