• CLUB BANGER ALERT: David Guetta “Where Dem Girls At?” Feat. Flo Rida & Nicki Minaj

  04.04.11 | No Comments

  

  We told you all that we would post as soon as this song leaked in CDQ. The studio version of David Guetta’s “Where Dem Girls At?” featuring Flo Rida & Nicki Minaj hit the net not too long ago. The single is set to appear on Guetta’s upcoming album.

  As basic and used as Dance/Pop music is these days, Guetta just whipped a hot one onto us. The melody, the switch-up of the beat, the dizzy bassline and ditty lyrics just make for one catchy song. Between this and “Who’s That Chick?” we domn’t know which is more fun.

• Catch-Up: Rihanna On SNL, X Factor + Final Edit of “Who’s That Chick”

  11.01.10 | 1 Comment

  

  So over the weekend Rihanna went from NYC to London as she appeared on Saturday Night Live and then X Factor, the next day. On SNL the singer performed “Only Girl (In the World)” and “What’s My Name.” We may have been away but we still were made aware of the flack Rihanna received for her poor live performance. It is a fact that Rihanna is not a “performer” but her “Only Girl…” performance was just not good, at all. Thankfully, all was not lost as Rihanna appeared in the sequel to her “Shy Ronnie” sketch. This time “Bonnie & Clyde” was the theme dubbed with a ditty tune from Rihanna, heavy on the accent. Watch the videos after…

• The Club Track or Radio Single? Rihanna’s “Who’s That Chick” vs. “Only Girl (In the World)”

  09.18.10 | 5 Comments

  

  Yesterday there was a serious leak in Rihanna’s well oiled machine. The entire song and video leaked of Rihanna’s collaboration with David Guetta entitled “Who’s That Chick.” Guetta teased radio listeners many months ago with the line “Feel the Adrenaline” on a French radio show. Well, Rihanna’s record label addressed the leak immediately:

  “It’s a leak,” SRP Tweeted, “Def Jam is pulling it down as fast as possible. The song is not a single – for the clubs only. The album is still being put together — many songs in the mix. Can’t answer for sure if it is on the album.”

  Now that it’s been established that “Who’s That Chick” is solely for the clubs, which song is better: this or the radio single “Only Girl (In the World).”

  “Who’s That Chick”

  David Guetta has produced so many songs within the past year that he is becoming more and more redundant but we have to admit that this song is where he unleashes the goods. After getting pass the fact that Rihanna is losing every spec of urban in here for the time being, it’s still all worth it. The song is Euro-dance at it best and a fun song like this shows just why Rihanna is a star today. The LOUD video certainly doesn’t take away from the fun nature of the song… We can go on and on, point is, WE LOVE THIS SONG.

  “Only Girl (In The World)”

  Well you can read our thoughts HERE. Despite this song being a pale comparison to the former, you cannot deny that it’s generic nature is the perfect formula for Rihanna to obtain her right #1 single. Watch “Who’s That Chick” video after

• Video Premiere: Flo Rida “Club Can’t Handle Me”

  07.17.10 | 1 Comment

  The David Guetta produced “Club Can’t Handle Me” performed by Flo Rida is set to appear on the soundtrack for the Step Up 3D movie. The video just recently premiered and…

  We avoided this song for the longest and then last night we just gave in and listened. This song is radio fodder, BUT it’s so good. The video is the usual uninspired club affair but like we just said, the song is good; it’s a perfect uptempo song for the night. Look out for Flo Rida’s next albu, The Only 1, later this year.

• Madonna & David Guetta WILL “Boom” Through Your Speakers

  04.03.10 | 4 Comments

  

  A few months ago it was announced that Madonna and producer David Guetta went into the studio to work on the Queen of Pop’s 12th studio album. Well, on March 5, it was reported that the single wasmastered and complete and all ready to go. Here’s what Guetta told Nine MSN:

  “That’s done, the single will be out very soon and it’s amazing, I’m very happy.” [SOURCE]

  Almost a month later and some of Madonna’s stans over at ileaks.com had the chance to listen to the single, “Boom,” and said this about it:

  1. The title speaks it all! It’s explosive.

  2. If you think “When Love Takes Over”, “I Gotta Feeling” or “Sexy Bitch” were Guetta’s peak, think twice after hearing this track.

  3. The summer anthem is here.

  Stay tuned. [SOURCE]

  Those few one-liners are not anything solid to go by but it lets us know that single we’ll at least hear the single sooner than later. Another thing, we really hope Guetta does not gives us some over-the-top production like the Paul Oakenfold produced “Celebration.”

• The World Goes On With Bruno Mars and David Guetta

  03.12.10 | No Comments

  

  We’ve heard him on the hook of B.o.B.’s “Nothin’ On You” and just the other day on Travie McCoy’s “Billionaire” but now Bruno Mars is trying to get his own shine on in a new David Guetta produced track entitled “World Goes On.”

  The guy has a voice as anyone who can hear properly should be able to tell. The production is your typical Guetta affair but it works. Hopefully Mars career takes off because he works and shines as a hook singer but singing whole sings may not attract as many people.

• Video Premiere: Estelle “Freak”

  03.03.10 | No Comments

  After a delay, Estelle’s new video for “Freak” is here. The video was directed by Nabil Elderkin who has worked with the likes of Seal, Will.i.am, Common, Mr. Hudson, Kanye West and more.

  Elderkin definitely lends his artistic vision to Estelle with this fashion drenched futuristic clip. There are tons of effects in the video and it’s a bit amazing how all that was transformed from a bunch of green screens. It’s a change from Estelle’s more soulful style but it’s an evolution, even if more into the trendy realm.

• Estelle Can Be a “Freak”

  02.26.10 | No Comments

  

  OHHHHHHHHHH my! Let’s get straight into this. David Guetta has produced a FUNKY dancefloor/club hit for Estelle. “Freak” features Kardinal Offishall and is the first single lifted from her third studio album All of Me. Estelle previewed her less soulful, more pop sound when she did the theme song for the Crystal Light commercial last year and this is another step towards that direction.

  The song sample’s Soul II Soul’s “Back To Life (However Do You Want Me)” and wow o wow all this energy and electro-dance funk is hittin’ all the right nerves. I think it’s safe to say, without getting a slap, that David Guetta is the top, near to being the top producer of the electro phase in mainstream music. Tune in later today for the video premiere of “Freak.”

• Rihanna Back to Old Habits: New Album Set for Summer 2010 Release

  02.26.10 | 2 Comments

  

  With all the speculation that Rihanna is set to do a “Rih-release” of her current album, Rated R, three sources have  now reported that Rih’s studio sessions with David Guetta and Ne-Yo are in fact for a new album set for a Summer 2010 release. Rihanna spoke to MTV last week, whilst in Asia, that her next album will be “energetic, up-tempo pop records.” Apparently Rihanna

  While the source at Def Jam tells Ikon the quick push to release a new album is because “Ri wants to get across that she’s moved on from the dark period she was in when recording the ‘Rated R’ songs,” our source says that’s only part of the reason. The label is said to be unhappy with Rated R’s current performance. The album has been certified platinum in the United States and has had two top 10 singles with another, the snappy island-flavored “Rude Boy,” moving up the charts quickly, but it appears it hasn’t yet lived up to the label’s big projections or massive investments.

  Our source says “Rude Boy” will likely be Rated R’s final single with the new album and tour taking priority after promotion ends.

  Asked about what we should expect from Rihanna’s new album, my insider continued: “Ri wants to get across that she’s moved on from the dark period she was in when recording the ‘Rated R’ songs. So expect more upbeat, dance tunes, similar to ‘Don’t Stop the Music’ and ‘Disturbia’. [SOURCE 1] [SOURCE 2] [SOURCE 3]

  If you’re thinking to yourself, “Didn’t she just release an album a few months ago?”, just remember that she was the one who released her first three albums in just 2 years. It’s obvious that the record label could be much happier with Rihanna’s sales and want to drive her back to #1 ASAP.

  This also makes sense as Rihanna has claimed multiple tht her world tour will go on for a year or a little more. There has to be some switch ups in there somewhere for a world tour to last that long and stay fresh. Check out some recent performances & interviews from the Blazin’ Bajan…

• Kelis “Acapella”

  11.23.09 | No Comments

  

  For awhile now we’ve been waiting for the new chapter of Kelis’ music and today is that day. She returned to Twitter to tell us her fifth studio album is almost completed. The first single “Acapella,” was produced by DJ David Guetta. In addition to Guetta, the album will feature productions by Burnz, DJ Ammo, Boys Noize, Diplo & Switch, and Free School. Here is what she stated on her site:

  Well, walking through the streets of NY this summer…I use the term walking loosely…I was extremely pregnant and probably doing more of a very slow creep down each humid sticky block…people had so much to say to me. You know us New Yorkers don’t ever keep anything to ourselves…I was asked if I would ever put another album out. I suppose people assumed after the baby and divorce and all the time I took off (went to culinary school during my break which was amazing and another conversation) that it would be on to motherhood for me. And well that’s true…as I lay here with my perfect little won ton now writing you all this message. My answer was always the same. “Soon come guys” and so here we are. My album is pretty much done. I signed a new deal and I’m madly in love with life and ready to share something with you. My song is called “Acapella” and I wrote it with love and life in mind. I hope that it finds you well and that you love it, cause honestly I do! Muah!”

  - Kelis

  This song is going to have the clubs going crazy; especially in the European markets. This may be the next “When Love Takes Over.” Way back in February when we heard the snippet of her collaboration with Crookers, we kept our fingers crossed that she would release an album filled of similar material. It looks like we will get our wish.

  Kelis has always been two steps ahead of the rest. Unfortunately, she’s not mainstream enough to get full credit for creating a new trend in music. And even though the dance/electro thing is done to death, it sounds fresh and new all over again with Kelis doing it.
