iamamiwhoami Releases The Beautiful "Tap Your Glass"




The ethereal iamamiwhoami has returned with her most accessible single to date.

Tap Your Glass is one of those songs created entirely on some computer program, yet manages to house a soul within its electronic construct. This is of course helped by the Diva's soothing vocals, but it goes deeper than that; with its soaring cadences and use of musical space giving the track a quiet, organic beauty.

I wouldn't be surprised if the computer that birthed this track now having attained some level of consciousness. I for one welcome our new electronic overlords.

Tap Your Glass is taken from the November-due BLUE.

[Free For All Friday]


Not a gif today, but a video! SAY WHAT?!

INVEST three minutes of your day to watch a clowder of big cats interacting with boxes. You won't be disappointed. Well you might be, but that's not my problem. It just means you have no soul...see a priest or something.

Should add, this is not a zoo. It's a sanctuary for rescued big cats.

Azealia Banks Returns with "Heavy Metal And Reflective"



While everyone stays fighting on who the better female rapper is- Nicki Minaj or the ghost of Christmas past (AKA Iggy Azalea)- I have quietly been waiting for Azealia Banks to make her return. Sure, this Diva has a stinky attitude, and says some stupid stuff on Twitter, but her EPs have shown that this lady has the smarts and the originality to really shake things up.

[Watch] Mariah Carey Performs "Meteroite" @ The 2014 World Music Awards..Yawn




Meteorite is one of my jams from Me. I Am Mariah, so I was excited to hear the Diva was giving it a live bash at The 2014 World Music Awards. I was also a little confused- isn't You Don't Know What to Do her current single?- but whatever, we know this campaign is an assortment of random foolery. We have to live with that.

[Watch] Leona Lewis Covers Naughty Boy's "La La La" @ World Music Awards 2014



Naughty Boy's La La La was practically the soundtrack to my summer last year.

The original featured site favorite (*sniggers*) male vocalist Sam Smith, but as he's infinitely more busy since his career has taken off, Naughty Boy enlisted Diva, Leona Lewis, to provide the lead vocals at the 2014 World Music Awards.

[Music Video] Janelle [Music Video] Janelle Monae - ‘Electric Lady’





Janelle Monae continues to bring me mountain air with her output. Freshness unfettered.

Newest video, for album title track Electric Lady, finds the Diva more chilled than seen in previous videos; enjoying the delights of a house party with her cool crew. (I'm in the background somewhere, don't let no one tell you any different!) It's just good vibes all round.
