1. Pixie has posted up the latest installment of her YouTube video diary, and it’s a performance of a new song which sounds really good. It’s called Hallucination and you can listen to it here. Pixie is definitely going to be big in 2009.
2. I just discovered that the new N-Dubz single is written by the same guy who did Broken Strings and the highly underrated World Filled With Love by Craig David. Although this is quite exciting because it means I have a new songwriter, Fraser T. Smith, to look out for new work from, but it’s also a bit sad cos I was so impressed by such a cheap and tacky group coming up with such as great pop song. Oh well…
3. Velvet is soon to have a crack at the UK, and her management have chosen her single very wisely – it’s Chemistry! This was the first song that made me think Velvet was a properly good popstar, as her first few singles were covers, and then I went back and listened again to Fix Me and realised it was also brilliant. Good luck Velvet!
4. Fans of Lady GaGa should have a listen to Swedish rapper Markoolio’s new single, The Markoolio Anthem. You may find it interesting!
