I did a little interview with Sweden’s acest new popstar – here it is: Your parents are Eritrean, but you grew up in Sweden. Do you think your African heritage influences your music?Of course! Everything about me and everything around me influences my music. What are your favourite and least favourite things about living in… Continue reading Dirrrty Pop Meets… Adiam Dymott!

And here is her new video! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXV1QPn_mzg&hl=en&fs=1] I know some people are not keen on this as her 3rd single, but personally I’m happy because it pulls her in very much a pop direction. I don’t want her 2nd album to sound like the Pussycat Dolls, just cos people haven’t seen the other sides of… Continue reading It’s so exciting having a new pop superstar!

1. Agnes is being launched in the UK with On and On! Even if it wasn’t the 9th best song of 2008, I would still be mega-excited to have a song written and produced by Anders Hansson and featuring Martin Rolinski on choir duties on UK television. Hopefully Radio 1 will pick up on it… Continue reading Important Swedish news!

A new group has formed, and the line-up is quite amazing: Cathy Dennis, Mark Ronson, Greg Kurstin, Guy Chambers and Dr Luke!!!! I can’t believe it’s real – how did they all get together?

I am currently putting together a special new project… well, I say new, but actually it’s a revival of an old one. My long-term readers will remember that I have previously put together 2 pop zines, called Poptastisk (Swedish for poptastic). Since it is one of my life aims (along with being head of Eurovision… Continue reading Got a question for Dr Pop?

A crappy new girlgroup have announced that they have created a new genre called Dirty Pop. Erm, excuse me, but you are forgetting that the almighty *N Sync invented that genre 8 YEARS AGO! Very new indeed.

his performance (click fler klipp on the left to see it) at Swedish award show Rockbjörnen (“the rock bear” – no, I don’t know why it’s called that!) the other day was terrible. He looks awful with that hairstyle, and his vocals were pitiful. If he didn’t have one of Sweden’s best production teams on… Continue reading I love Ola, but…

Melody Club – Girls Don’t Always Wanna Have Fun (Listen)I started off quite underwhelmed by the new Melody Club single, but it has grown on me with more listens, as I hoped it would. It’s still nowhere near their best material, but considering how brilliant Melody Club have been in the past, that’s not a… Continue reading New Pop on the Block
