Machines Don't Care ft Meleka- "Beat Dun Drop"

Oh my goodness, when I first heard this song I had no words to describe it.. This song is simply amazing.





'Machines Don't Care' is a collection of some of Underground Clubland's most talented DJs and music producers and are set for summer with their latest single 'Beat Dun Drop', featuring Meleka.


With the track consisting of a spoonful of remixes, a dash of Dubstep, and a hint of pop, all wrapped together with Meleka's delicate voice, there's nothing else more alluring to your ears. It's no wonder it's already a huge success in the UK.

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Fiona Apple- "Every Single Night"

Meet Fiona Apple.


Last Friday, I was on Twitter when I noticed 'Fiona Apple' was one of the top trends worldwide. A bit puzzled, I clicked on the trend and found out that Fiona Apple is a singer from America, but after that I still wasn't 100% convinced on who she was.


So I went onto Youtube and typed in her name, and the first thing that came up was her latest single 'Every Single Night' and I clicked play on the video.


The first image that came up on the video was this (above), and I honestly must say I got slightly disturbed, but as I continued to watch the clip I noticed that despite the weird floating brains, creepy snails covered all over her body and scary voodoo-like Hawaiian dolls, Fiona Apple actually has a beautiful voice and 'Every Single Night' is a song I personally recommend to listen to, although I understand it may not be everyone's cup of tea.

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Sean Kingston ft. T.I. "Back 2 Life (Live It Up)


It's been a long time since we've heard a track from Sean Kingston, and I'm glad to say that he's back with his third studio album "Back 2 Life", and released the first single off the new album "Back 2 Life (Live It Up)"  which featuers T.I3 days ago, on the 8th of June. The new single is thought to be inspired through Kingston's near-death experience which occurred last May 2011.


The 'Fire Burning' singer has now recovered and is in perfect health and told MTV 'I'm going to the whole Reggae island-pop thing', *yay!*. In his new album, he collaborates with the freshest artists in town, with the likes of Nicki Minaj, Shakira, Wiz Khalifa, Rihanna, Busta Rhymes and many more to come! Definitely an album predicted to be HUGE in the future. (Album is set to be released on July 2012.)

Check out Kingston's latest single Back 2 Life (Live It Up) at the link below, and comment on what you think below too! (Follow Sean Kingston on Twitter @SeanKingston)
