Listen: New Shakira Single “Loca” + album cover.

Listen to the full version of “Loca” in both languages below. It’s Shakira doing her own thing, and we all know how sometimes it works(La Tortura) and at times it doesn’t(She Wolf).  We can get down with this, especially the Spanish version, but we can pretty much bet the song won’t do well on mainstream radio. :(   Enjoy the official single artwork above.

“A Year Without Rain”, the latest POP offering from Disney branded star Selena Gomez is screaming for the remix treatment, no doubt it will happen.

Without a doubt our favorite current Disney act, give it up for Selena Gomez & The Scene.

Kylie Minogue B-side leaks + US tour confirmation!

First up with the POP princess, a new track has surfaced titled “Change Your Mind” and word has it Jake Shears(lead singer for Scissor Sisters) and Deadmau5 are behind it! We are really diggin’ the tune, and couldn’t help but think it sounds a lot like the Alexis Jordan track “Happiness” so we looked it up and stumbled upon the Deadmau5 mix and sure enough it features a VERY identical production, just a few minor differences! Apparently it’s also a track he had previously recorded for his own album. Listen to both songs below!

Cheryl Cole to return with “Promise This”!

This is very exciting news, not even a year since her debut album release and Cole is set to dominate the charts again with sophomore record! Read on for more info.

Cheryl Cole is to release a song to celebrate her survival after contracting malaria while on holiday in Tanzania. The X Factor judge has chosen Promise This because of its lyrics, which relate to her time in intensive care. The Geordie lass is set to perform the up-tempo single at The X Factor live shows in October. A source told the Daily Star Sunday: “Cheryl’s comeback song is called Promise This. ”It was actually written months ago and although it’s not directly talking about her illness there is a strange lyrical twist that ironically relates to her recent near-death experience. ”It is similar to the way Fight For This Love related to her marriage drama.”

The Girls Aloud singer is to film a video of the song in Los Angeles and fans will hear the track in a few weeks’ time when it gets its first play on Radio 1. The insider added: “A release date hasn’t been confirmed for the single but there’s talk Cheryl could perform on the second live show after Joe McElderry. ”It’s a huge comeback track and Cheryl absolutely loves it. ”There’s a lot of pressure on her to follow up her first album with another multi-platinum seller. ”But everyone agrees she is back with her best material yet.”
