Thanks to a cameo by a certain “living legend”, Rihanna will undoubtedly return to our Weekly Top Ten countdown with her kinky single “S&M”. So why did she ever leave? We’re not entirely sure, but it’s nice to see her getting a second chance after […]

Aural Only: Natalia Kills
You know when you first hear a song and you’re not particularly impressed? Perhaps the lyrics are a bit too “eighth grade poetry” for your tastes, or the overall sound is a bit too familiar (and not in the good way). Whatever the case, it’s […]
Aural Only: Cazwell
After getting your cones dripping with his oversexed music video for “Ice Cream Truck”, the frequently shirtless Cazwell is back with a new clip for “Get My Money Back”. We are presenting it without comment. Feel free to draw your own conclusions as to why […]
Discuss: Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” Video
Okay, we get it! Lady Gaga‘s music video for “Born This Way” came out today. We were going to hold off until tomorrow to write about this, but clearly the world can’t wait for a post on “the manifesto of Mother Monster”. Not even kidding. […]

Wondering why your favorite song hasn’t been added to our Weekly Top Ten countdown? Blame Britney and Gaga. Thanks to the heavy hype surrounding their new singles, most major pop artists have opted to hibernate until further notice. Rest assured, we’ll eventually add Jennifer Lopez, […]
Aural Only: Clare Maguire
We know trying new things can be kind of scary. Judging from the current numbers on our Weekly Top Ten poll, you have a tendency to favor established pop entities over up-and-coming stars. We don’t blame you or anything. After all, a bit of familiarity […]
Aural Only: Jessie J
You better get used to Jessie J‘s “Price Tag”, because it’s about to be plastered all over the place. Whether you like it or not. The mellow backing beat is packed with more sunshine than the cheesiest Natasha Bedingfield song, while the overall positive message […]
