Bruno Mars - 24K Magic

Bruno Mars has returned to the music industry with his newest single 24K Magic, taken from his upcoming third studio album, due November 18th, 2016. 24K Magic is a funky song, it's totally a dance-floor song and the music video is perfect for the message of the track. I have to say that I'm not pretty sure if I liked it, because I think that isn't too catchy and the rhythm reminds me to Daft Punk's music style, so I have doubts about it. Maybe I have to listen it more.

"Players only, come on

Put your pinky rings up to the moon

Girls, what y'all trying to do?

24 karat magic in the air"

Kaskade & Deadmau5 - Beneath With Me (ft. Skylar Grey)

Kaskade in collaboration with the Canadian electronic DJ Deadmau5, have released a new song called Beneath With Me, featuring Skylar Grey.

Beneath With Me is like a trance song with a little bit of progressive house, that has a very dramatic music videos, where Skylar Grey dies. I have to say that I like trance music, but this song isn't their best song. However, Skylar's voice gives a great vibe to the song, I think she should collaborate more in this kind of songs.

"Come take my hand

And focus on the light down at the end

Say words to comfort me

We still have time for hope, that's all we need"

Afrojack - Gone (ft. Ty Dolla $ign)

The Dutch-born DJ has published the music video for his latest single featuring Ty Dolla $ign called Gone. Well, the music video for this song is like all the videos for this kind of collaborations between DJ and rappers, you know, a party in big house, with a lot of girls and etc. So, it wasn't like a big surprise what I saw on it. Talking about the song, it sounds more like a hip hop song that EDM, I just have one question: What's going on with EDM? It is now hip hop?

"No we ain't gotta complicate things, 

just keep it nice and simple (nice and simple, nice and simple)

That's how we do it, how we do it all day, 

baby girl you got potential (If you want the info, I'mma give it to ya)"

JoJo - Music. 

As you know, JoJo is about to release her new album. Thus, she has published a new music video for the promotional single Music. 

The music video is full with video tapes of JoJo when she was a little kind and she was in contests. Music. is a piano ballad, where she talks about "unconditional love for music through the ups and downs in her life". The lyrics of the song are very personal and it's a beautiful and emotional song.

"We were never rich not even thousands

Mom was on her knees cleaning houses

I used to go to work with her some days

And dream and dance in the big hallways"

My favorite music video was...

I think that JoJo has made a beautiful video for her promotional single, so I will choose it as my favorite one.

Album Review: Skylar Grey - Natural Causes

Album cover

Natural Causes is the third studio album by American recording artist Skylar Grey. It is her second album since her stage name change from Holly Brook to Skylar Grey. It was released on September 23rd, 2016. 

I know her since 2010, when Diddy released the song Coming Home featuring Skylar's vocals. However, this is the first album by Skylar Grey that I listen.

Lyrically, there are songs mainly about love, break-ups, unrequited love and difficult experiences. Something that I like from Skylar Grey's songs is that, she is very honest and she always sing about deeper feelings. Natural Causes is totally an alternative pop album, with some of R&B vibes. 

The first track is actually an intro called Intro - Wilderness, that serves to introduce us to her dark world full of honesty. As all the intros, it is short and Skylar's voice sounds slightly robotized, because of the use of the synthesizer. I have noticed that there are powerful songs, because of their messages, for example: Lemonade about an unrequited love, Kill for You featuring Eminem, that has a dark story behind, because it was inspired by Bonnie and Clyde's story, they were a couple known for their homicides and robberies. Continuing with songs about love issues, Real World talks about love in the real world and not through a computer or cell phone. Straight Shooter is like the darker song, because it is a little violent, but its meaning is like to be honest with the other and with yourself and always do what you want to. 

Personally, the saddest song is Come Up for Air, which is a break-up song and its message is pretty sad. It is about a girl that has broken up with her ex, but she knows that he will come back with her just to play with her heart and she will be there for he.

"And I will still be here

When you come up for air

Do you what you gotta do

I'll wait for you, to come for air"

On the other hand, there are songs that lyrically repeat the same verses several times; but they are just as amazing as the other ones. For instance, Jump that has a catchy chorus or Closer the last track, it also has a relaxing rhythm and it gives a beautiful and lit ending to the album. But my favorite song was Off Road, which is also one of the most rhythmic tracks from Natural Causes; it is my favorite song because of its message, that is to enjoy our life, because is too short to not enjoy it and also that is better to try new things instead of doing the same shit. 

There are some songs that bring light to it, such as: Moving Mountains that is a beautiful ballad that according to Skylar is about “finding your happiness"; she said: "In the verses I’m talking about that ambitious side of myself, talking from the perspective of the ambitious career-oriented person, and then in the chorus I’m the more enlightened me."

In My Garden, Picture Perfect and We Used to Be Bad are also great and each one have a different message, but I think that what these songs have in commun is that, they talk about acceptance and past memories. 

I have to say that I been listening to Natural Causes since it came out and I think I'm not going to stop. Skylar Grey is an amazing artists with original music style and talent.

Skylar Grey - Natural Causes: ★★★★★

Women power! Tove Lo, AlunaGeorge, Skylar Grey & JoJo

Tove Lo - Influence (ft. Wiz Khalifa)

Finally, Tove Lo has released in her official Youtube account her latest song Influence, featuring the rapper Wiz Khalifa, it is taken from her upcoming second album Lady Wood.

I'm very excited about her upcoming album, this new song sounds so great. It follows the same dark sound as in Cool Girl, but this new song is about being drunk and / or high and to lose control of yourself. 

"You know I'm under the influence

So don't trust every word I say, I say

When I'm under the influence

It's a blur, but I want my way, my way"

Skylar Grey - Kill For You (ft. Eminem)

This new song taken from newest album (out now) is a collaboration with Eminem, it is called Kill For You and it is an interesting song. It was a song that was inspired by " Bonnie and Clyde, who are a couple known for their homicides and robberies." In this case Skylar is totaly in love with Eminem and she would do anything for him. Lyrically it has a lot of verses, but are well written and talking about the beat, it's not that bad, but I got bored in some parts.

"You gon' make make me a believer

Even if that shit ain't true

You gon' make me commit murder

Baby, I'd kill for you"

AlunaGeorge - Not Above Love

AlunaGeorge has published one the new songs that are part of their latest album I Remember. The song is called Not Above Love and Aluna said that she was emotional when she wrote it. Aluna said: “I think this song speaks for itself, it was a moment where I was really stuck in this emotional… that point where you keep going round and round and you can’t snap out of it and a friend of mine really just explained to me that this person was promising things but not actually delivering anything and they were just stealing my obsessive energy that I was giving to that person.”

"I'm not above love, I just ran out of air

I'm not above love, so it's not like I don't care

And I know you're thinking the worst of me

But I hope one day you'll see"

JoJo - FAB. (Feat Remy Ma)

The American singer, songwriter, and actress JoJo has released the song FAB. which is a promotional single from her upcoming album Mad Love. JoJo said something very interesting about it: “I was literally singing in my head, and I was like I can’t stand these fake ass bitches in my face. I was like, you know what? I’m not cut out for the shmoozing and the fakeness. I literally can’t stand it. I know I’m not the only one that can relate to that. Sometimes [the music] industry can feel a little bit like high school so I was just reflecting on that and pounding it on the treadmill. I came to the studio that night and I was like, listen we gotta talk about these fake ass bitches."

"Fake ass bitches

When they smile in your face, but behind you it ain't well wishes

When they eatin' all the food off your plate and they don't do dishes

When they words and they actions blur and they don't know different"

My favorite song was...

I think that my favorite song today was Influence by Tove Lo and Wiz Khalifa.

From indie to rock, from 5SOS to Steve Aoki!

Catfish and the Bottlemen - Twice

British indie rock band, formed in Llandudno, Wales in 2007 have published the music video for their latest single "Twice", song taken from their second studio album called "The Ride", released on May 27th of this year. The music video is basic, but the song isn't, I loved its rebel message and it sounds great.

"Christ, I ain't ever going back to thinking straight

Cause twice, twice it brought me down

But it's the last time"

Steve Aoki & Reid Stefan - Bring The Funk Back 

Steve and Reid have published the music video for the song "Bring The Funk Back", that is also the chapter number three of four videos that will be in total. Down the music video they wrote the following explanation:

"This track in its stages had been developed all across the USA and Canada to Ibiza and back to our LA stomping grounds at Dim Mak studios to top it off. Road tested and ready for play. Hope you enjoy. And as for our video segment we introduce Trev for Chapter 3."

Talking about this new song, it is a dupstep, trap, bass and house track, that will blow your mind, it's a pretty cool new song.

5 Seconds of Summer - Girls Talk Boys

“Girls talk boys,” is featured on the soundtrack of "Ghostbusters". I liked this song, it sounds so different to all their songs, it sounds like a pop rock song and the melodie is pretty "funky". While, the music video follows the thematic of the movie and it's pretty funny. Well done guys.

"Cause every night you and I find ourselves

Kissing and touching like no one else

Falling and falling until I fell

For you"

Skylar Grey - Off Road

"Off Road" is the latest single taken from her upcoming studio album, that will be released in Fall 2016. Tyler Shields shot the “Off Road” music video using the Samsung Gear 360, a 360-degree camera that captures footage with two 195-degree hemispheres. However, I have to say that I don't like this kind os music video, where you have to move the picture to see what happens on it, but this one is great, becuas we can see her in different parts not only in one place (that usually this videos are made just in one place) and the message of this song is great!

"I'm always Looking for an adventure

Let's go somewhere we both haven't been

I need a change of scenery

I'm sick of lookin' at the same old shit"

Jarryd James - 1000x (ft. Broods)

Jarryd James Klapper is an Australian alternative pop singer-songwriter and producer, better known as Jarryd James. He has published the music video for his latest single "1000x", which features vocals from Georgia Nott of New Zealand duo Broods. The song is an electro-pop ballad, that has melancholy message and the video is perfect for the song.

"In another lifetime

I would never change my mind

I would do it again

Ooh, a thousand times"

The music video of the day is...

Personally, 5 Seconds of Summer did an amazing music video for "Girls Talk Boys", that is also a good song. I liked it, because is very creative, entertaining and funny.
