Beyonce BeyHereNow Teaser Video
NEW BEY!

A rattling tribal beat and a stunning shot of Beyonce flicking her wrist? Why yes, that is all the sustenance we needed today.

After instructing all of us to “Bow Down,” Beyonce has dropped a teaser video for her new single, or new video, or new announcement, or new album, or new tour (who really knows, at this point? Let’s assume it’s a single, though), which is coming tomorrow, April 4, at 9AM ET. All it says is “#BeyHereNow.” So you know what? We will. More »

Cassie Numb Video
She's Goin' Numb

Ah, Cassie — the queen of icy, low-emoting dance-pop&B. The chanteuse has just dropped “Numb,” the first video from her upcoming mixtape RockaByeBaby, and it’s — well, typical Cassie: Sleek and minimalist and a little bit diffuse and overall pretty effective. Helmed by Alex Nazari and featuring a prominent guest spot from a cigar-puffing Rick Ross, it’s classic Cassie hipster decadence.

But wait! There’s more where that came from. Her upcoming mixtape, RockaByeBaby (which drops April 11) now has a full tracklist, and it’s loaded with features: Wiz Khalifa, Pusha T, French Montana, Jeremih, Fabolous, Meek Millz, Too Short and Ester Dean. Who else could release such a star-studded mixtape but Cassie, R&B’s ice queen? Surely no one. Check the full track list after the jump, and watch the “Numb” video up top.  More »

Love Is In The Air

In his trailer for upcoming LP To Be Loved (out April 23), Michael Buble The Confident Jokester boldly declares, “People are gonna go fucking crazy for this record”…just before he howls like a wolf. In another bit in the clip, Buble The Honest Artiste earnestly notes, “I didn’t walk in [to this album] thinking that I need to be a genius. I just really walked in with the simple hope that I could string together a bunch of songs that I absolutely was in love with.”

Buble enlisted producer Bob Rock for eighth album To Be Loved, which consists of standards as well as four original songs co-written by the singer. Get a taste for the tunes in the splashy vid above. More »

Vanessa Hudgens $$$ex
$$$

Vanessa Hudgens doesn’t seem to be worried about being typecast as a party girl, does she? The starlet — who played a bad girl with a dipsomaniacal streak in Spring Breakers — dropped her single “$$$ex” a few weeks back, and now the grimy electro track is getting a video treatment. Y’know, the slimy, low-budget kind!  More »

Drake’s “5AM In Toronto” Video: Marvel As The Rapper Gets High, Drinks Beer, Hangs With Strippers

What Does Drake Get Up To In The Wee Hours?

Drake‘s video for braggy track “5AM In Toronto” aims at glorifying the rapper’s late night/early morning activities. And since, as Drizzy points out here, we need him more than we hate him, we’re compelled to watch as he sips from a plastic cup, smokes a blunt, cavorts with strippers and boasts about his cash, cars and #1s.

The real fun begins when the “Started From The Bottom” MC takes in a volleyball game played by said ladies of the pole at the clip’s climax. To be kind of honest, though, what would be more attention-grabbing at this point is a music video featuring Drake staying in for a night of streaming documentaries on Netflix or playing Bioshock Infinite on Xbox in his PJs.

Nicki Minaj’s “High School” Video: See Her Get Sexy With Lil Wayne

Nicki Minaj High School
High School, Just How We Remembered

A new day, a new Nicki Minaj clip! Yes, the rapstress and American Idol judge has dropped her 10,000th music video, this one for “High School,” her latest single from Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded — The Re-Up; Remixed, Reduced & Revisited ~ Roman’s Recharge (okay, we made part of that title up). But still! Nicki’s had a lot of singles from this album. That’s all we’re saying.

This is a pretty good one, though, all things considered: The song, with assistance from Lil Wayne, is sultry and provocative, and now with a visual component it’s even more dynamic: Minaj struts and flaunts in a lot of sexy swimsuits, makes out with Wayne in a bedroom, and appears to be a jewel thief, or something? Because she and Weezy escape via helicopter with some diamonds at the end of the video? Whatever. It’s not totally clear. Also, it doesn’t totally matter. Narrative matters much less here than her curves and weaves.  More »

Will & Nate Tell Us The First Thing That Comes To Mind

With our own hearts going mad as a March hare — or, more appropriately, an April fool — for Parachute‘s new Steve Mac-penned single “Hearts Go Crazy,” we decided to wrangle in the pop-rock quintet’s frontman Will Anderson and guitarist Nate McFarland for a little game of Pop Associated.

The gents gamely plunked down in our hot seat, and we proceeded to quiz them on the first things that popped into each of their heads as we rattled off the names of the various music luminaries they’ve worked with over the years. Whether it was touring with Kelly Clarkson or Hot Chelle Rae (or Andy Grammer, who they’re currently on the road with), palling around with Taylor Swift, working with OneRepublic‘s Ryan Tedder on their upcoming third album or jamming with Daryl Hall for hit web series Live From Daryl’s House, this Parachute pair gave us plenty to chew on.

Watch Will and Nate play Pop Associated above, then listen to Parachute’s new single “Hearts Go Crazy” below! More »

Demi Lovato Jimmy Kimmel Live
Sick Demi

Demi Lovato wears many hats — apple-cheeked X Factor judgestress, pop superstar, giver of breaks to hearts and arty silver-body-paint-smudged Lily Collins-browed sex bomb — but she juggled them all seamlessly last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where the songbird stopped by to talk about the third season of The X Factor and her upcoming fourth studio album, Demi.

Despite battling a head cold she picked up on her mini world tour, Lovato was in good spirits discussing prospects for judges on next season’s X Factor, in the wake of departures from both Britney Spears and L.A. Reid: “I would love for either Lady Gaga or Katy Perry,” she said. (Us too, Demi.)
