Originally penned as a weekly topic, Tuesday Tunes would show the latest releases in music from the week before. The idea was taken from Twitter's long running 'Music Monday' trend, with the exception that it was a day late and had a different name. With my current lifestyle not allowing a complete blog focus, the idea has stalled, instead I plan to focus on music when I get the chance. This first post showed the best music from the week previous...it won't be the last, I'm just not set on a post schedule to make this a weekly occurrence as planned.
Check out the best of last weeks music below anyway...
Check out the best of last weeks music below anyway...
First up is the new video for Rihanna's S&M, the third single from her fifth studio album, Loud. For the video, Rihanna reunited with director Melina Matsoukas, who also worked on her Rockstar 101, Rude Boy and Hard. I'm not sure how she gets away with it, not that I'm complaining, but the end result is another sexy video...even if the Perez Hilton cameo is a bit disturbing.
Next up is the forthcoming track Words I Never Said from Lupe Fiasco's upcoming album, Lasers. A teaser video for the track, featuring Skylar Grey, was released a few weeks ago with a Feb 1st date at the end of it, true to his word, Lupe dropped the track first thing this morning. I'm hopeful the full video will surface soon, rest assured I'll post it when it appears.
Price Tag is available on iTunes now. Who You are is available March 28th.
Tired of waiting for Kanye West to release a video for Devil In A New Dress? Rick Ross has given us his visual representation of his portion of the track. The video, shot in Toronto a few weeks ago, sees Ross taking in the streets from the comfort of his Maybach. Check it out below.
Excuse the stupid adverts, click the close button to get rid of the annoyance.
The last video for the week features Rihanna again...why not?! Despite David Guetta's club smash Who's That Chick? appearing as a digital download last November, the 'official' video only surfaced last week. The video is pretty much the colour side of the Doritos Late Night campaign video, but it's still worth checking out.
On to the music now, no videos for any of these yet so I'll quick fire through these with the audio included for your listening pleasure.
First up is the mastered version of Dr. Dre's I Need A Doctor, featuring Eminem and Skylar Grey. Still no official release date for Detox, but with each new release it brings hope that it will soon see the light.
Next up is a radio rip which I had to post after hearing it live late last year, especially as the clip was only released to the blogosphere last week. The original track is Cassius' I Love You So, but this version here is the remixed version from Skream and it is absolutely incredible.
Another remix, this time from Brooklyn based producer Hype Jones, as he mixes up Mike Posner's Please Don't Go. Listen below and enjoy the free download too.
Who's House? RUN'S HOUSE! The DMC front man has passed some of his mic skills down to his son, Diggy Simmons. Signed to Atlantic, and featured previously on this blog (Diggy Mixtape), Diggy dropped Everybody Late last week. As for Run's House, apparently it will resume filming "when Diggy slows down". Another free download included with this, so if you like it, download it.
Finally finishing up with the smooth vocals of Theophilus London with his latest track Why Even Try, featuring Sara Q.
As I mentioned at the start (edited since the initial post) the plan was to keep this running on a weekly basis but due to all sorts of demands I've decided to musically blog when relevant...mainly because I never have the time set aside just to blog on a set day. If you enjoy the concept, let me know and I'll try to make it happen on a regular basis.
