DAT NEW NEW

Here we have three new songs with their brand spanking new videos; Rizzle Kicks, the marvelous Lady G. and a banging new tune from Kanye West and Jay-Z.


Rizzle Kicks - AKA Jordan 'Rizzle' Stevens and Harley 'Sylvester' Alexander-Sule, are two of the latest exports from the BRIT school. Originally both from Brighton, they formed the duo in 2008. I love how their stuff is fresh and new yet they have such a massive old school hip hop feel in their music. Have a listen to Prophet (Better watch it) and Miss Cigarette. I am so in love with Rizzle it actually hurts my heart.


Lady Gaga, in my opinion, is a creative genius. No matter how ridiculous, controversial or just plain crazy she is her ideas are always more inventive and artistic than anything we've seen in a while. In this song she attacks a love of hers that seems to be conflicting her heart; she loves him so much, regardless of his alcoholism and...fetish for mermaids? In the video she has given herself a male alter-ego, by the name of  'Jo Calderone'. I don't really know what to make of him, she doesn't make a half bad Nebraskan badass though.


Kanye West and Jay-Z's new album - Watch The Throne, is not one to miss out on. I mean it, it's fucking good. This is the first single off of the record, entitled 'Otis' - obviously because of it's sweet Otis Redding sampling. The video is just as slick as the song; its just Kanye and Jay-Z running around having a fucking good time.
