MTV Artist To Watch: Twenty | One | Pilots
by Rachel Brodsky | January 28, 2013 at 11:00 am
|
|
Meet Twenty | One | Pilots: masters of the piano-back flip. We have so many questions for Columbus' Twenty | One | Pilots. First, why the breaks in their name? Why all the masks? If they had to classify themselves as a single genre, what would it be? These are the first of many questions [...]

New Video: Kelly Sweet, ‘Ashes Of My Paradise’ (VIDEO)
by Brad Stern | January 25, 2013 at 10:30 pm
|
|
Ladies and gentlemen, here's your first electro-pop heartbreak anthem of 2013, courtesy of Kelly Sweet. L.A.-based singer-songwriter Kelly Sweet's latest, "Ashes of My Paradise," is a brilliant Robyn-meets-La Roux-meets-Ellie Goulding bout of sweetly sung heartbreak. And the song's newly premiered video -- a kaleidoscopic, Chris Callaway-directed clip -- isn't just a verifiable smorgasbord of high [...]

New Video: Nicole Scherzinger, ‘Boomerang’ (VIDEO)
by Michael Depland | January 25, 2013 at 9:58 pm
|
|
Nicole Scherzinger won't let any haters take her down in "Boomerang." Nicole Scherzinger has worked SO hard in her post-Pussycat Doll life (she has nine of those, right? Couldn't resist!!). With several years of recording and a solo album STILL not released Stateside (though 2011's Killer Love did get released internationally), we wouldn't be surprised [...]

New Song: MS MR, ‘Fantasy’
by Luke O’Neil | January 25, 2013 at 9:26 pm
|
|
MS MR's "Fantasy" more than lives up to its title. Pop music has been on an insular, solipsistic streak these days, where personal drama is everything. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course -- we've all got our problems. But there's a reason why so many of us fall head over heels for [...]

New Video: Cris Cab, ‘Paradise (On Earth)’
by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | January 25, 2013 at 9:00 pm
|
|
When you're with Cris Cab, anywhere can be "Paradise." We don't know if you've noticed, but Cris Cab is totally killing the music game right now. (We didn't include him on our Most Criminally Overlooked Artists Of 2012 list for nothing.) Cris has already got a dual co-sign from both Pharrell and Wyclef, his first single, "Good Girls (Don't Grow [...]

New Song: The Strokes, ‘One Way Trigger’
by Luke O’Neil | January 25, 2013 at 8:24 pm
|
|
"One Way Trigger" is The Strokes' first single since 2011. BRB, KVELLING. Look, we're going to be frank with you here. Occasionally as music writers we tend to get a little -- what's the phrase? -- overly hyperbolic about the new music. "Insane" is another way of putting it. "ZOMG THIS IS THE BEST THING [...]

New Song: New Kids On The Block, ‘Remix (I Like The)’
by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | January 25, 2013 at 7:15 pm
|
|
New Kids On The Block support the outcasts! Now that New Kids On The Block are part of THE PACKAGE TOUR (aka the best tour ever with NKOTB, Boyz II Men, and 98 Degrees! Also, EVERYONE! WHEN ARE WE GOING?), it seems only fitting that the boys should get a brand-new single to hit the road with. Cue [...]

New Song: Cher Lloyd Featuring Juicy J, ‘With Ur Love’
by Michael Depland | January 25, 2013 at 6:56 pm
|
|
Cher Lloyd and Juicy J team up on "With Ur Love." We're always daydreaming to Cher Lloyd's songs. We've partied with our best friends in "Oath," terrorized our exes in "Want U Back," and now, in Cher's latest pop jam "With Ur Love," we're whisked away to a much warmer place (that isn't SERIOUSLY 15 [...]
