Mariah Carey - Shake It Off
R&B / Man what a comeback. Mariah, queen of the power-ballad, dodgy-marriage and lousy movie has turned things right around with her new album. She is now an R&B star, with some great production leading to some great tracks. This is one of the highlights of ‘The Emancipation of Mimi’, a simple, subtle, head-bopping beat, and that voice. While it is easy to put all the kudos on the head of the producers, Mariah knows exactly what she is doing, being one of the biggest-selling female artists of all time. Welcome back. Short clip below.

Destiny’s Child - Cater 2 U
Hip-Hop / Man alive. OK so yes, that is a grab of the video for the new Destiny’s Child song “Cater 2 U”. And yes, they are naked. The first few times you see this video, you will fail to listen to the music, as your brain instead tries to understand how pornography got onto your daytime TV. The song is a has possibly the most ridiculous chorus of all time (”I Got Your Slippers, Your Dinner, Your Dessert, And So Much More”) and after all that ‘independent women’ stuff, I though this was a huge joke and that they were going to suddenly break a guy’s balls or at least do a couple of high-kicks. Something. But no, they want to cater 2 u and that’s about it. Check the nudity below.

Teairra Marí - Make Her Feel Good
RnB / Teairra Marí is Jay-”I thought you were retiring”-Z’s latest signing, the little miss adding only a few kgs to the growing Roc-a-village. She is 17, and sounds good without sounding like she’s trying or cares. The track is pretty tight, check the short clip below.
