Wale hit the stage at Hot 97’s Summer Jam yesterday (June 2nd) and hours ago, the rapper dropped the highly anticipated Rihanna remix to ‘Bad.’ He teased the track earlier this week while chatting with Sway and the full song is rather addictive.

RiRi sings Tiara Thomas’ part and even adds some more rhymes. “A bad girl want a real n*gga…Got a thang for a king, but you ain’t a king,” she spits, while Wale raps lines like , “Bad girls always end up unapologetic.”

Fresh Tunes: Miley Cyrus – ‘We Can’t Stop’
0June 3, 2013
We expected so much more from Miley Cryus’ comeback single ‘We Can’t Stop.’ The singer dropped the first single from her upcoming RCA debut just hours ago and as the title suggests, it encourages listeners to party until the world ends. Sadly, it’s an extreme let down and waste of a release (at least in the summer).
When we heard that she was in the studio with Mike Will, we were expecting something that would dominate the summer charts, party scene and give the ladies something to twerk to. Instead, we received a down tempo pop jam with lyrics like “shaking it like we at a strip club / remember only God can judge us / Forget the haters / Because somebody loves ya.”

RiRi can sings Tiara Thomas’ part and even adds some more rhymes. “Bad girls want a real ni*gga,” she rhymes, while Wale raps, “Bad girls always end up unapologetic.”
Hype!

NexCyx Unleash Brand New Single ‘Eternal Summer’
0May 29, 2013
Barbadian five-piece NexCyx is ready to dominate the summer season. The band is infamous for releasing extremely catchy tracks and hours ago, they unleashed their brand new single ‘Eternal Summer.’
Borrowing from traditional Barbadian tuk rhythms and popular folk tune, ‘John Belly Mama,’ the song boasts an escalating beat with plenty of hand claps and drum beats along with a rap verse from Mahalia.
“ … Dark lips and dark eyes I’ll meet you outside now / we ‘bout to break it down / feel the heat rising / hear the beat rising / sweat dripping off your skin / don’t try to fight it now / we bout’ to break it down,” she sings on the summer smash. Midway through Mahalia delivers an entertaining and funky rap bit where references are made to Formula 1 cars, shining bright like a diamond and taking a walk on the wide side among other things.
Fresh Tunes: Ellie Goulding – ‘Tessellate’
0May 29, 2013
The word “disappoint” does not exist in Ellie Goulding’s vocabulary. The British songbird wowed with a performance of ‘Explosions/ Anything Could Happen’ on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ and she’s followed up by releasing a track by the name of ‘Tessellate.’
Produced by Xaphoon Jones, ‘Tessellate’ is a cover of the original track by the same name released by British alternative indie pop quartet Alt-J (∆) in 2012 lifted from their debut studio album ‘An Awesome Wave.’
The track was the perfect song for Ellie to cover. It’s haunting vibe perfectly suits her ethereal voice and it’s impressive how easily she made the song her very own. “Three guns and one goes off / One’s empty, one’s not quick enough / One burn, one red, one grin / Search the graves while the camera spins,” she sings on the tune.
The world knows that Ellie Goulding is one of the most impressive artists of all time and this song is testament as to why this is so.
