MIA’s third album, /\/\ /\ Y /\ has been released today!

You can purchase the album here and stream the album is streaming here: myspace.com/mia.

Influences on the sound of /\/\ /\ Y /\ include dubstep, electro, punk, and pop, but the end result is not so easy to define. With songs geared towards the dance floor (XXXO, Teqkilla), the rock club (Born Free), the album is sure to please a wide audience.

This is insanely cool and it sounds good, too. It’s a mix of a bunch of different styles of music all in one neat tidy package. Love it.

Listen to “XXXO”, “Tell Me Why”, and “Teqkilla” after the jump: (continue reading…)

Fefe Dobson’s fierce new single Ghost is available to buy now on iTunes! Already earning rave reviews, the edgy, dancefloor-ready single is the first off her sophomore album Joy, due out in August via Island Def Jam.

For a backdrop to the sassy synth-pop cut, be sure to check out the video for Ghost, where a leather-clad Fefe exacts revenge on a cheating ex, haunting him with some seriously devilish antics!

This video reminds me of the mid 80′s videos. She has a great voice and I think this song should be a hit. Check out the official video here.

Phenomenal!!

Yes, that Rush, Tom Sawyer Rush you knuckleheads. Check out these totally stolen (or “stolen” *cough* intentionally leaked *cough*) and posted on YouTube and found by EarSucker songs before they get yanked offline. The music is catchy, relatively straightforward by this trio’s standards, which means Geddy Lee is still, most likely, doing seventeen different things at once on bass, keyboards and foot pedals.

Paris Hilton has just come out with a new song, titled, I Need You. And yes, it is as bad as you think it is. Seriously, just because this woman has money, doesn’t mean that she should be allowed near a recording studio, unless it’s to clean it.

Listen for yourself, after the jump! (continue reading…)

Rumor has it that Britney Spears is working on her followup to 2008′s release of “Circus” and she will be releasing it next year.

According to sources, Britney will be releasing her new offering in May 2010. She’s also said to be working with songwriter Sean Garrett along with Max Martin.

Can’t wait to hear what she’s doing next. It seems like Lady Gaga is really dominating the pop scene right now, and rightfully so. Will Gaga be the new Princess of Pop or can Britney really bring it?

He said:

http://bit.ly/197ITg I am but a vessel for inspiration. Every idea must be investigated or I have neglected the gift. (I am an idiot.)

The song is untitled, but I’ve tweeted him for a title. I’m not holding my breath on any response in the near future, but it’s short and sweet. (continue reading…)

Versus the much cooler fan-made “Brat Pack” video:

Can you shake it like Ally Sheedy and Molly Ringwald? So 80′s, I love it.
