UK REP XCLUSIV: WHEN JENNIFER LOPEZ IS GONE!

Jennifer Lopez When You're Gone (1:57 Snippet)

...

This is a snippet of a BRAND NEW track from Jennifer Lopez's upcoming English album due for release in the coming months! I am not sure whether this is the lead single, but i can honestly say that the track is a great slow jam from JLo. And if this is representative of the whole album, then it is definitely one album to go and get! If you're thinking not to download the track then you should think again, because at 1:57 the snippet is long enough to give the feeling of the track!

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD THAT THIS IS MY 100th POST ON THIS BLOG THIS MONTH!

UK REP'S NEWS - 30 JUNE 2007

...

WHO'S THE DADDY?

Usher who recently got engaged to long time girlfriend Tameka Foster has announce that the couple are expecting their first child! According to a representative, the baby is due this fall so look out for that! More news as and when I get it! Although this will be Usher's first child, Tameka already has three children and this will be her fourth! Looks lik 2007 is going to be busy for Mr Usher! In a recent statement the couple said: ''We are extremely excited at this point in our lives planning our wedding and the joy that comes with expecting our first child together.". Isn't this great news?

NICOLE DOES WHATEVER SHE LIKES WIV T.I.

Her debut solo single 'Whatever You Like' is due to leak in the up and coming weeks so check back to my site for the mp3 of that! The song is also confirmed to feature rapper of the moment T.I., I hope his rap is decent and not like some of his recent collabo's! Other people set to appear on her debut album 'Her Name Is Nicole' is Akon, will.i.am and Diddy and possibly Timbaland! This is shaping up to be a hot record!

SHOPS IN THE UK WILL NOT SELL PRINCE'S NEW CD!

Shock horror for Prince fans here in the UK, as Sony BMG will not distribute his new CD 'Planet Earth' in the UK! The only way to get hold of a copy is if you buy a future issue of The Mail On Sunday newspaper! Sony BMG were set to distribute the CD in the UK but due to The Mail On Sunday's plan to give it away, they have pulled out as they cannot see anybody buying the album, therefore giving Sony no profits! What a crisis for the music industry! I will be getting my free copy though! lol!

TEEDRA MOSES KNOW WHAT LOVE'S GONNA BE!

Teedra Moses Love's Gonna Be

...

I really like this track, but then again I liked her debut album as well! I know many people do not like her but I gotta give her credit 'cos she is out there making a name for herself and anyone that does that gets UK Rep's respect! So, back to the track, this is the rumoured first single from her upcoming sophomore album 'The Young Lioness' due out in the next coming months! When I first heard about this joint I thought it was gonna be a collaboration between herself and Trey Songz, but the male vocal on this track does not sound like him! Do you think it's him? What do you make of the track? Good comeback single?

UK REP'S NEWS - 28 JUNE - SPICE GIRLS SPECIAL

Well, what can I say! It's official: The Spice Girls really, really are getting back together. The group will release a greatest-hits album and kick off an 11-show world tour in December, it was announced in London Thursday. The two-month tour will begin Dec. 7 in L.A. and include concerts in Las Vegas, New York City, London, Cologne, Madrid, Beijing, Hong Kong, Sydney, Capetown and Buenos Aires. "We are celebrating the past!" said Geri "Ginger" Halliwell at London's O2 Arena, when she and Victoria "Posh" Beckham, Melanie "Scary" Brown, Emma "Baby" Bunton and Melanie "Sporty" Chisholm were introduced on stage together for the first time since 1998. "I want to be a Spice Girl again," said Bunton. "We are like sisters and we have our arguments, but by the end of the day we get back together." Actor Richard E. Grant, who played the group's manager in their 1997 movie Spice World, introduced the band at the press conference after a video montage of their greatest moments played on screen. The tour "will be a proper good farewell to our fans," said Chisholm, who had been portrayed in the British press as the last Spice to agree to a reunion. "A girl is allowed to change her mind," she quipped. "We only started serious discussions this year. We feel the time is right. I'm very, very excited." "We are going to celebrate the past, do a small tour and that will probably be it," said Beckham, who had just returned from an Asian vacation with husband David after they said adios to their home in Spain on June 18. "Our priority is our families." What do you thing of the news? I think it is great news! Will you be going? Please please please comment and please please please give me credit if you use these images!

UK REP IS FEELIN' CLEO LIKE THIS!

Cleo Feelin' Like This
...
Some of y'all will remember this chick as the lead singer of 90's girl trio 'Cleopatra' (Comin' Atcha!) Well, after years of working hard in the studio she is ready to release material to the charts! Her first singlw 'Feelin' Like This' will be released onto CD single here in the UK on August (check out my promo to the right!) with an AMAZING album set to follow! The single choice is really good, it's a fun uptempo track which, with the right promotion should do great in the charts! But don't be fooled into thinking this chick only has an uptempo voice because some beautiful ballads have been posted on her MySpace in the past nd her voice on those was/is really really beautiful! What do you make of this single? Good single choice? If this is the first time you have heard of Cleo, what do you make of her? Please please please comment! This site needs comments to stay alive ot else there is no point to post new things each day if I do not know what you think!

UK REP HAS JUST DIED AND GONE TO DC HEAVEN!

I just HAD to post these photographs! How gorgeous do they all look! I am so glad to see the three DC members back together even if it just for the red carpet and to appear on stage together for a minute! I really hope the girls get back to the studio together and record a new album! In a recent UK interview Beyonce said 'because we're friends we could make another album' and Kelly said 'if we were to make another album we would let the UK know first as the UK fans are the best!'. Things are looking good for a reunion! Would you like to see DC3 back together in say a years time after Beyonce and Kelly stopped promoting their albums? Please let me know what you think!

UK REP'S FLASHBACK: 27 JUNE 2007

2000

Mis-Teeq Why

...

Here is another post from my daily 'Flashback' posts, where everyday for the foreseeable future, I will post a track from back in the day, but the artist will always come from the UK! So I thought today I'm going to for another UK girlband, but this time with an urban/garage twist! The band in question are of course Mis-Teeq. With Alesha's solo project set to sky rocket very shortly with the long-awaited/delayed release of her album 'Fired Up' in September. As well as Sabrina (now under the alias 'Puma Washington') releasing her new album 'Rocket Zone' later this year! Anyway back to Mis-Teeq, these ladies were the cream of UK garage music! I absolutely loved them and still do to be honest! They had huge success here in the UK as well as some success in the US with 'Scadolous'! The track I have posted here was their debut single 'Why' which was released in 2000 and reached a peak psition of 8 in the official UK charts, they later went on to have a number 2 with their next single! What do you think of this new feature? What do you think of the track I have chosen? Who do you think I should post in the future?

I want to take this opputunity to say PLEASE COMMENT ON MY POSTS! I put a hell of a lot of effort into both my blogs and a bit of recognition would be greatly appreciated! I opened my iPod blog yesterday and already have posted 27 videos and I know of no other blog that works this hard, because as well as posting on that blog I post on this blog! I do this all by myself! I am not looking for sympathy or anything like that but recognition would be great! I put a lot of hard work into this blog and would like to get the feeling that people enjoy what I do! This goes for other blogs as well, especially 'VIP's Design', the admin over there runs a fantastic blog and is upset that nobody comments her, and what's worse, whenever she does recieve a comment it is from a vicious visitor who is vile, crude and rude! So please respect bloggers and appreciate the hard work we put in to satisfy you guys! Love you all!

CUT IT OUT NELLY! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Nelly Cut It Out (feat. Pimp C & Sean P)

...

With Nelly set to drop 'The Prelude' September 10 (UK) and 11 (US) a new single was due to leak very soon, and it has! Only I hope it hasn't! This new track that has just leaked called 'Cut It Out' has been rumoured to be his new single but I really hope it is not his comeback single! Why? Because it is not a good Nelly track, it's an alright Hip Hop joint but he shouldn't feature so many other rappers. I hope this is just a buzz track and doesn't represent the sound of the nw album! I loved all his previous albums and was looing forward to his nnew one, but now I'm not so sure! It doesn't have that 'Nelly Sound'! What do you think? Please let me know!

Beyonce Get Me Bodied & Kelly Rowland Like This

Robin Thicke Lost Without U

...

Ciara & Lil Jon Like A Boy/That's Right

...

T.I. Big Things Poppin'

...

OK, so now you've seen the better$ performances, I would like to know what you think please! I personally think that Beyonce looked, danced and sang amazingly in a stunning gold outfit, Kelly did a good job as well but the cream was put on the cake when Michelle and Solange joined Kelly & Beyonce on stage and Eve making an appearance was great as well! Moving on to Robin Thicke, this guy is making a big name for himself now in the UK and this performance was heartfelt, I like it! Then we got Ciara who unfortunately looked better than she sounded, I feel that whenever CiCi performs this is the case, but she gave a great performance and it was good to see my fave song 'That's Right' performed with Lil' Jon! Then we end wiv T.I. who in my book can't do a thing wrong recently! Major propz to T.I.!

I think it was an amazing night for music and in particular for Black artists! Remember your opinions count as much as mine, so be sure to make some below!

ONE TO WATCH: KERI HILSON!

Keri Hilson Come Clean

Keri Hilson Love Ya

...

Someone did request these tracks yesterday, and I didn't know whether to post it as a request track or as a normal post. After a while pondering on my decision, I have decided to make a full post on Keri Hilson and these two new tracks! Her debut album 'In A Perfect World' is due out later this year! THese two tracks 'Come Clean' and 'Love Ya' are two confirmed tracks which will make the cut! I love this chick ever since I first heard of her through Timbaland, if you have Timbo's 'Shock Value' album, you'll recgnise this gal as she's all over the record! Timbaland is set to repay the favour and heavily produce her debut record as well as Justin Timberlake getting writing credits! What do you make of this girls voice I like her a lot! Check her out in Timbo's new video 'The Way I Are'!

Alicia Keys Show Us Who She Really Is In October!

Alicia has recently released info on her new album due out October 23. I can reaveal that the new record will be called 'As I Am' and two tracks featuring John Mayer are set to make the cut! She has also been woring with John Legend (how could would a duet between them be?) and man of the moment: Timbaland! This album is shaping up to be BIG! U lookin' forward? I sure am! Source

Rihanna Secures An Amazing 6 Weeks At The Top

Rihanna has spent an amazing 6 weeks at the top of the offical UK Singles chart with the track 'Umbrella'! This is so far the longest running number 1 in the UK in 2007, so major propz to her! She has come back good this time and has really got her recognition! With no BIG singles released in the foreseeable future, she seems to stay there for quite a while! How long u think she could last? Please let me know! Source

Backstreet's Back Alright!

Yes you heard your boy UK Rep right, the original boyband have not been dampened by a flop album (2005's Never Gone) and a member leaving and have been busy, as a four piece in the studio getting their new record ready for an October 31 release date! The guys comeback single 2 years ago 'Incomplete' was a good tune but the album was dissapointing, I hope they do a 'Take That' and come back with quality tunes! Source




Pharrell Williams Works With Three BIG Divas!

Looks as though Pharrell has got an eye for the ladies, especially the DIVA variety. Pharrell has just completed work on Jennifer Lopez's upcoming English album as well as Britney Spears big comeback record. It seems that after working with these two he has a taste for the DIVA and is set to make Janet Jackson's new album sound hotter than ever! I always think that Timbaland is better at producing than Pharrell but I hope Pharrell comes out with some big tunes for these three!
