New Song: Rihanna’s ‘Jump (Club Cheval Rap Remix Featuring Theophilus London)’ (NSFW)
by Michael Depland | January 31, 2013 at 11:04 pm

Rihanna's "Jump" gets the remix treatment from alt hip-hop rhymer Theophilus London. We'll "jump" at the chance to listen to anything Rihanna (it's pun o'clock!), especially when it involves a reheat of Ginuwine's classic "Pony." So when we heard that "Jump," one of our fave tracks from Unapologetic, had been given the grindy, grimey remix [...]

Beyonce Confirmed She Sang To A Track At The Inauguration, Then Sang The National Anthem Live At A Press Conference! BURN NOTICE!
by Michael Depland | January 31, 2013 at 10:32 pm

Haters to the left! Beyoncé is familiar with sending you there (to the left, to the left). We already knew that Beyoncé was the most graceful and flawless woman ever to float about the Earth (because only mere mortals walk the Earth, and Beyoncé's not human). And we knew Beyoncé is the absolute BAWSE. But [...]

Bruno Mars has four sisters, and they're all beautiful, and they're all in a girl group. Y'all: Did you know that Bruno Mars has not three, but FOUR sisters, and when their powers combine, they're an all-girl band called The Lylas?

Listen To Adam Buxton’s (Really Weird) Cover of Will.I.Am and Britney Spears’ ‘Scream & Shout’
by Luke O’Neil | January 31, 2013 at 9:27 pm

Scott Walker "covers" Britney Spears and will.i.am's "Scream & Shout." A good cover song takes what's essential about a track and transforms it into something fresh. A bad cover song simply rehashes all the necessary parts note for note and passes it off as something new. Then there's the type of cover that invites an [...]

by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | January 31, 2013 at 9:00 pm

Yogi, or rock band frontman? This isn't the first time we've been in awe of Adam Levine's yoga prowess -- remember when he got all "I'm hot and say 'namaste'" for Details? But after seeing his spread in the March 2013 issue of Men's Health, we're fully convinced that when Adam's not tearing up the charts [...]

by David Greenwald | January 31, 2013 at 8:00 pm

Alpine burn up the dance floor with their hot new synth-pop jam, "Gasoline." We've been telling you that Australia is the new Williamsburg for a minute now, but Alpine, the latest in a series of Down Under acts, sound more global than dive bar. The Melbourne sextet's minty fresh synth-pop doubles its pleasure with two [...]

by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | January 31, 2013 at 7:02 pm

Taylor Swift hangs out with Hailee Steinfeld in Paris! We could think of worse things... Last time Taylor Swift went to Paris, she filmed her "Begin Again" video in a stunning sundress, flirted with a hot Frenchman, and most importantly, consumed fattening French pastries that you know she didn't gain an ounce from. Now Taylor's back [...]

New Song: Cee Lo Green Featuring Lauriana Mae, ‘Only You’
by Michael Depland | January 31, 2013 at 6:31 pm

Cee Lo begs his girl for another chance on "Only You." If we've learned anything from Cee Lo Green, it's that dude is NOT shy about hiding his feelings. He gets paid to say exactly what he thinks on "The Voice," and it's pretty clear that subtlety doesn't fall high on the priority list with a [...]

New Song: Gold Fields, ‘Happy Boy’
by Rachel Brodsky | January 31, 2013 at 5:27 pm

Gold Fields evaluate what it is to be "Happy" on their brand-new single. We've officially been obsessed with Aussie dance-rock darlings Gold Fields ever since we caught the five-piece opening for Astralwerks labelmates Diamond Rings late last year. And although the guys were draped in hoodies and low light, their booming brand of earwormy, synthed-out [...]
