My Chemical Romance have chosen the amazing “Planetary (Go!)” as the third official single to come off of their latest album “Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys”. The new single will be released in the UK and US next week. For that reason, the rock band has recently premiered the music video for the song. It’s disappointing though. I love the song like no other but I hate when live performances are turned into music videos. Compared to their previous videos from this era, this new one just leaves much to be desired. But I still hope that the new single would get a high spot on the charts.
My Chemical Romance – Planetary (Go!) – New Video
With the release of the singer’s much awaited music video for “Born this Way” it seems that Lady GaGa has embarked upon a path of conquest that is somehow reminiscent of the Blitzkrieg of ages past. Apart from “Governmental Hooker”, Lady GaGa will have yet another single called “Judas” coming in the near future that will also have its own music video. Of this latest single the singer’s creative director, Laurieann Gibson, had this to say: “So, visually, the dance, the costuming, the idea of how big we’re trying to go, it’s going to be a rollercoaster ride. What is a traditional music video? Even if we go with a traditional music video, the directors that we love are not traditional, so the idea that they get to collaborate with us means they too want to live outside of what people expect a traditional music video to be.” Lady GaGa and her crew sure seem to have high expectations of themselves… well, maybe this time it will actually be as earth shattering as they say.
The singer has recently released a brand new music video for his song “More”. The music video isn’t really anything to actually scream at, however the song it seems to be promoting doesn’t sound half-bad. It’s a very catchy pop/R&B piece… nothing that hasn’t been done before, but Usher seems to be singing it the way they used to back in the good old days. The music video is mainly made up of concert footage together with a lot of close-ups with Usher. Not the most amazing combination, but it’s practically free and also ensures that the songs gets more promotion since that’s probably what Usher was going for. So anyone who likes Usher’s singing might also want to take a look at this music video.
Pitbull has a new song out in the form of his collaboration with Ne-Yo, Nayer and Afrojack called “Give Me Everything”. The song is the official second single from the rapper’s upcoming studio album “Planet Pit”, which is expected to drop in stores this summer. The song is a certified club banger and in my opinion should be able to hit the top 10 of any chart. If all his fans thought that his late 2010 hit “Hey Baby” was great, “Give Me Everything” is even better. It’s infectious and I’m looking forward to hit the dance floor when this song comes on.

Grammy and Oscar award-winner Jennifer Hudson recently premiered the official music video for her latest single “Where You At”. The R Kelly-written ballad is the first offering from the singer/actress’ upcoming sophomore album called “I Remember Me”, which is due to come out on March 22. At first I just thought that it was a pretty song but I really fell in love with it after seeing Jennifer’s live performances of it. Those diva notes are no joke. As for the visual, it’s cool. It’s a bit boring at some points but it’s well shot and the locations were amazing.

Hinder just released their new album, Take it to the Limit.

The band recently released ?Without You? as a single and the power-ballad picks up where their 2006 breakthrough hit “Lips of an Angel” left off. The band?s debut album Extreme Behavior has gone on to sell over 3 million copies so anticipation is high for this one.
