This wasn't anything I was expecting from Flo Rida. His new single "Good Feeling" is produced by Avicii and Dr. Luke, and even samples Etta James old song "Something's got a hold on me". And it's very good indeed. It's house, it's dance, and between the great track, the sample that grabs you, there's Flo Rida's rapping, which works well and sounds like a lot of the music that we get right now where R&B artists raps over dance tracks, but this songs give it another dimension due to the fact that it's so well produced aswell as the Etta James sample.

Katy Perry - Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)
This is pretty frekkin' hilarious. We're talking about the music video for Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" featuring cameos by Rebecca Black, Darren Criss, Kevin McHale, Hanson, Kenny G, Debbie Gibson and Corey Feldman. So fun that Rebecca Black got invited to the party since Fridays is her favorite day of the week.
The track was written by Perry, Dr. Luke, Max Martin and Bonnie McKee, and produced by Dr. Luke and Max Martin. Katy Perry desscribed how the song came to be: "It's a song about debauchery because I had one of those nights in Santa Barbara. We went out to this place called Wildcat and got crazy. We had a couple of beers and danced until we died, then brought the party back to the hotel room. Most of that song is actual truth, apart from the ménage à trois… unfortunately! But, yes, streaking in the park, that’s what we did, so we had to write a song about it the next day!"
The video was directed by Marc Klasfeld and Katy Perry takes on the role of Kathy Beth Terry, a nerdy teenager with braces, headgear and oversized glasses who's just woken up the morning after a house party. A male guest opens the door to her bedroom and congratulates her on having the best party ever. Puzzled as to what happened, she goes online, only to find pictures of herself in various compromising positions. The video then goes into a flashback of the events that occurred the night before. Check it out below.

Video Update: Britney Spears - Till the World Ends
Britney Spears premiered her all new video for second single 'Till the World Ends' yesterday, taken from new album 'Femme Fatale'.
The video is taking place in an underground club, and the video go well with the lyrics in the chorus:
"See the sunlight
We aint stoppin'
Keep on dancing till the world ends
If you feel it, let it happen
Keep on dancing till the world ends"
Because she and a bunch of other people are dancing their asses off while the city above them are falling apart.
The video was directed by Ray Kay and I have to say that he's done an amazing job. The video has a simple concept, but for me it's the best Britney-video in many years. She looks amazing and the video has this energy that's been lacking a bit from her performances as of late.

Katy Perry - E.T. (feat. Kanye West)
'E.T.' is written by Katy Perry, Dr. Luke, Max Martin and Ammon. The song is an electro ballad that has a similar beat to Queen's 'We will rock you', and the song is about falling in love with a forigner. But in the video they've capitalised on the fact that she sings 'alien' in the lyrics and put an alien-theme on the whole thing.
In the video Perry is joined by rapper Kanye West(as well as on the single edit).
The Canadian director Floria Sigismondi is known for making dark and feminine music videos, and has done so in the past for artists like Christina Aguilera('Fighter', 'Hurt') and Marilyn Manson('the beautiful people', 'Tourniquet') -E.T. is no exception.
In the video, Perry play an alien(donning some serious make-up, and uses prosthetics, coloured contact lenses and shimmering face paint) who drifts through outer space before landing on an abandoned planet covered with litter. She eventually come across a broken robot, which turns into a naked male after recieving a kiss from Perry. Kanye West is mostly floating around in a spacecraft throughout the video.
Just the sheer amount it took for getting Katy Perry's make-up ready was hard for her. This is what she says about it:
"It was, like, five and six hours, each makeup look. It was hard for me! It was really a patience thing for me on this video. But, you know, it's like when you're doing a film. Sometimes you have to do prosthetics, and you have to get really old or turn into an animal or a monster — and that's kind of what this process was", Perry told MTV.
The single is Perry's fifth number one on the Billboard Hot 100-chart.

Britney Spears - Till the world ends
Britney spears is already back with her second single. It's called 'Till the world ends' and is a song penned by Ke$ha for Britney and is produced by Dr. Luke, Max Martin, Billboard, which of the first two ones is the executive producers of her seventh studio album 'Femme Fatale' that will be released later this month.
You can hear that 'Till the world ends' is written by Ke$ha because it's utilizes the stuttered vocoded vocals that she's known for. But I don't mind it and it works overall exceptionally well with Britney's voice. The song uses several "Oh Oh Oh Oooooh"'s in the chorus that will get stuck in your head.
If 'Hold it against me' was a dance track for the clubs, this is a dance track for the radio. It's very cachy, very Britney and will get you in a good mood. There's no "It's Britney ,bitch", there's no lyrics hinting about sex and there's no cheeky double meaning lyrics. The text is simply about party and having fun and feels perfect for the summer. Which feels like a breath of fresh air when it comes to Britney in recent years. The production is simply perfection as it was on 'Hold it against me'. Dr. Luke and Max Martin know how to make sensational several layered pop music, that's for sure. I'm certain this will be a massive radio hit for her. What is your opinion?
PS. The song is already out on iTunes worldwide.

Ke$ha - Blow
Ke$ha has released the her latest video for 'Blow', directed by Chris Marrs Piliero. And she's enjoying herself at a unicornparty! You heard me. People are dressed up and have unicorn heads, except for Ke$ha that is. And for some reason James Van Der Beek of Dawson's Creek fame are sneaking around at the party aswell as Ke$has nemesis.
It's an alright video that try to be weird and funny, and manage to be so quite alright. It also looks like Ke$ha is trying to clean up(or just got a new stylist), she's still got her trashy tongue-licking ways, but she's got nice straight hair and are donning fashionable designer dresses strangely enough(for being Ke$ha that is).
The song is written by no other people than Klas Åhlund, Lukasz Gottwald, Allan Grigg, Benjamin Levin and Max Martin. And it's produced by Dr. Luke and Max Martin, whom is busy producing Britney Spears upcoming album.

Video Update: Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me
And here we finally have it -the video for Britney's latest single.
The video is directed by Jonas Åkerlund, whom also directed videos for P!nk, Lady Gaga, Roxette, Rihanna, Lenny Kravitz, Christina Aguilera, Madonna etc..
In this video Britney is on a soundstage in a rocketship. The video is very pretty, and the cat fight and the white dress getting sprayed with a variety of colors during the middle-8 is cool, and although her dancers is awesome, I can't help but feel slightly disappointed by the fact that you don't really see Ms. Spears getting in more on that awesome dancing herself.
I wonder if that is because that knee-injury that she got a few years back while touring and she will never be the same or if the choreographer or the editing is to blame.
Although I think it's a lot better than Radar, If you seek Amy and 3, it's not succeding the video for womanizer.
And I'm still just as excited for the rest of the album as when I first heard this dance club record, that 'Hold it against me' is.

Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me
Britney Spears is back with the first single from her up'n'coming as-of-yet untitled album. The song is Hold It Against Me, and if it's any indication on how her new album will sound it's pure dancepop with heavy beats.It's nice to hear her voice again. And that the vocals's isn't auto-tuned to hell.We shall see if 2011 is the year Britney makes a real huge comeback.
