Therefore there will be no posts during that period, I'm really sorry! This is just two weeks, as soon as I come back posts will resume as normal here and on my iPod blog!

I just had to post this video before I leave! This is the new video from former UK X Factor winner Shayne Ward who has been busy preparing his as yet untitled sophomore album set for release later this year! I have to say that the song is a definite grower! I'll be the first to admit I didn't like it at the beginning but now the video has leaked it's a different story! I like his new sophisticated look and new sound! Unfortunately no HQ mp3 but I'm sure one of my fellow bloggers will post it while I'm away!
I couldn't leave you all without something a little special so here is the OFFICIAL album cover for the NEW Keyshia Cole album 'Just Like You' set for a September 11 release date (check my sidebar for any date changes)! Be sure to comment on what you think! ALL comments are apreciated and I love reading ALL of them!
This is the OFFICIAL second single from Lil' Mama which is far more commercial than any other of her tracks! Nevertheless it is still a good joint and it has been confirmed that this will be the second single to be released from her upcoming album 'Voice Of The Young People'! What do you make of the track? Are you feelin' Lil' Mama?
Back in November last year Taio Cruz was one of the UK R&B artists to watch and since releasing his debut single 'I Just Wanna Know' which recieved minimal commercial success, but those who had heard the track loved it! Here we have his new single 'Moving On' which is better than his debut single and hopefully does better in the charts than its predecessor, and is taken from his debut album 'The Movie' which is set for a November 2007 release date! Taio is one of the unique UK artists who writes for American mainstream artists such as Britney, Mya, Usher, as wells as UK talent like Mutya Buena and Will Young! I know I have been posting a lot about UK artists recently but that it is for two reasons! 1, not much new music has been leaking and 2, because I am sick to death that UK urban talent are IGNORED in this countries commercial promoters! TV rarely shows these UK urban talents and opt for UK indie talent instead! The UK has so many great UK urban artists such as Big Brovaz, Nathan, Keisha White, Jay Sean, Fun*dmental '03, Nate James and to an extent Beverley Knight, Jamelia, Alesha, Lemar and Simon Webbe (who although appear on TV a lot do not shift a lot of record sales!) Am I the only one who is unhappy about the state of UK Urban music? I'm sure I am NOT so please please please let me know who YOUR fave UK urban artist from the list above is! I really really want to know what the REAL music fans think lol!
Lovin' the summer vibe on this track! So glad it leaked in time for my holiday! I am still really really anticipating the release of his new album 'Trey Day' as I have rinsed that 'Wonder Woman' track right out! About the new track, it's great and whoever Buju is has a great sounding voice! What do you make of this track! I know a lot of you are HOT Trey fans which is why I post so much about him so be sure to comment as I love reading your opinions!
I like Joe Budden and have been waiting for his new album 'The Growth' since... wait for it... 2004! Yes you heard me right, 2004! His highly anticipated follow up to his 'Joe Budden' album is finally set for release later this year and here we have a new track which feature the vocals of Robin Thicke who has ben highly influenced by T-Pain and Akon on this track! Jut listen and you'll see what I mean! Are you feeling this track? Do you think his new album will be a success or a flop? Have you been waiting since 2004? I know I usually post all artwork on Thursday's but as you can tell, this week I am not here on Thurday so just like I have done for Tinchy Stryder & Fun*dmental '03, here is the artwork:
Tinchy Stryder is another UK grime artist making it BIG this summer with his second commercial single 'Something About Your Smile' taken from his debut studio album 'Star In The Hood' which is due for release August 13! Here is the OFFICIAL album cover:
I like the album cover, it's a good shot of him! I have known aout this guy for a few years now, but now he is gearing up for commercil success alongside artists like Lethal Bizzle, Kano and Dizzee Rascal! I have uploaded two tracks from his album! 'Breakaway' which as his first OFFICIAL single and his new single 'Something About Your Love' which is one of my favourite tunes around at the moment! I also leave you with the video! Please let me know what you think! Remember I aim to bring UK Grime to the masses! So be sure to share your thoughts and opinions! Look forward to hearing from you! And if you would like this video for your iPod head over to my iPod blog and you can download it there!
Unfortunately the studio version has not yet leaked, but I have a new version for you, a few days ago I posted the acoustic mp3, and a snippet of the studio version, and today I am so kind as to give you a special Rock version mp3 of the track! I really like this track and will keep reminding people about it as it is set to become one of the UK's biggest track of 2007 and remember you heard about it HERE first! Please let me know what you think of this track! Not a lot of people commented on the track last time! I would like to know what u guys think of the UK urban scene please! Also I have changed the Craig David banner, what do you think of the new one?
Fun*dmental '03 Switch It (Streaming Only NO Download!)
...
Fun*dmental 03, or FDM as they are now going to be known are getting ready to release their debut album 'Backstage Pass' later this year following on from their hit singles 'Jump' and 'Playground' back in 2005! I really rate these boys, especially as they hail from the UK and I gotta keep reppin' the UK! And the fact that these boys can sing and dance and do both very well! Their MySpace page has been heabily updated with info, more songs and more so be sure to check that out here! I have postd the OFFICIAL link to the streaming of a new slow jam from the lads called 'Switch It'! It is a great tune and different to their previous material! I would like to know what you guys make of this great UK talent! Do you like them? Have you heard of them before? Please let me know as I love to jnow what you think of UK artists especially! I couldn't leave you with a big UK REP XCLUSIV: The Official Album cover:
I think the cover is great and their logo is immense! I love the blue and the black together! I cannot wait to cop that CD and I will keep you posted on official release dates and I am trying to catch up with the boys for a UK REP XCLUSIV interview! So any quetions you may want me to ask, pop them in the comments section please!
Two great Spanish tracks by Ms. Furtado which will appear on the 'Summer Edition' of her multi-platinum selling third album 'Loose' due for release soon! I posted the cover of the re-release a few days back so be sure to check that out! I really like the way that Nelly sings on these tracks, she sings great in Spanish and being fluent in Spanish I understand the words and she gives great meaning to the words! I love them! My fave is 'Dar' but I also like 'En Los Manos De Dios' which is the translated version of her new single 'In Gods Hands'! What do you make of the tracks? Please let me know!
Just as soon as I mention her website has changed a new track leaks! Perfect timing? I think so! This is a great track that has just been leaked called 'Sweet Nothings'! It has been confirmed that this will NOT be the first single from her new album which is due for release in November! There are also doubts whether or not to include this track on the album! I hope it does make the final cut as I think it is a great new sound for her! I wish her all the best! What do you make of the track?
That's right! Here in the UK this is the ONLY way to buy Prince's new album 'Planet Earth'! Sony BMG have withdrawn distribution of this CD in the UK because of the fact it has been given away for FREE with the UK newspaper 'The Mail On Sunday'! I went out at 7:30 this morning to my local TESCO so that I don't miss out, and already they only had TWO copies left!!! This is a MEGA giveaway and a way of Prince saying Thank You to his fans! I have listened to it over and over and love it, I even love the way he raps on the track 'Mr Goodnight'! The album is a MUST HAVE and if you live outside the UK you will have to buy the CD at full price when it gets released July 24 (20 in Germany!) If any of who have this album also, I would like you to let me know what you think of it, and what you think of this offer! Today is a great day for the future of the way music will reach people!
Just like I did for Nicole Scherzinger a few days ago, I am doing the same for R&B singer Brandy! Her OFFICIAL website is currently under construction and is being given a great makeover, already we can see the BRAND NEW Brandy logo as well as amazing graphics around the screen! Definitley check it out here! Let me know what you think of the new look site please! Do you lke me posting posts about OFFICIAL websites?
I have managed to find the BRAND NEW video of Ms. Furtado's new single 'Do It'! Unfortunately it seems that Nelly did not use the Missy Elliott remix which I posted a few days ago but instead opted for the album version! In a way I'm pleased, but I did like the Missy remix! I'm sorry about the quality of the video, but in order for you guys to see it FIRST this is the only version I could find! Hope you enjoy watching it! I think it is great! I am so glad that she has not opted for a low budget live montage of concert footage for her last single like many artist are doing such as P!nk! Lok forward to hearing your thoughts!
A while back I posted the mp3 of this track, which I believed to be called 'I Get It' but now that 50 Cent has chosen to release it as a street single the title is infact 'I Get Money' (if you didn't download it before then you can download it above the video on this post! The video is alright, I am glad it is onl a street single though! I am really anticipating the video to 'She Wants It' wich features Justin Timberlake! It looks as though 50 Cent can make the great comeback many thought he couldn't! What do you think?
In the past I have posted quite a few tracks by Keri, and here we have a new one! It is not the new single however but it is still a great track which has been confirmed to appear on her new album which has had a slight title change! The original title was 'In A Perfect World' but it has ow been changed back to it's previous title 'Keri'd Away: In A Perfect World' which ties in with Keri's debut single 'Keri'd Away'! I am really anticipating her debut album and my interest in her has grown since Timbaland's 'The Way I Are' rocketed up the charts! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the new track! I think it's great and I also wanted to know whether you liked the new banner I made for Keri Hilson (if you can't remember the old one just click on the Keri Hilson tag to view old posts!)?
I know many of you have been wanting me as a leader of UK blogs to post this mammoth UK tune! Unfortunately the full track has not leaked contrary to some reports! I have uploaded with help from my great friend from VIP's Design a 1:40 snippet of the studio version and a full length acoustic version (the video of which you can watch above)!!! The acoustic version is great! This could possibly ecome one of the greatest UK tracks of 2007! I am looking forward to the full studio version leaking and hope the video is released before I go away on holiday! Not many other blogs will feature Kano, which is a shame because he is (in my opinion) the best rapper/MC that the UK has, but as I am from the UK and am dedicated to bringing you BRAND NEW music then I will cover all Kano news here on this site! What do you make of the track! I am really eager to know what you think of he tracks as well as Craig's new look (no hair!), I love Kano's natural flow!
KT Tunstal is making a great comeback this year and her debut single is FANTASTIC and is taken from her new album 'Drastic Fantastic' set for a September 10 release date! Be sure to check my release dates sextion n the sidebar for any changes! I really like the sound of her music, even though I do not normally listen to this type of music but I am a big fan of KT! I am eager to know what you guys think of this track! Do you think her slightly different sound is a great move? I definitely like her new look and her new album cover is one of my fave's! If you haven't seen the cover yet then check out my artwork post yeterday!
Like I have said before, it seems Mario was unhappy with the material he had before as he is now leaking the final versions which are a lot better than those leaked previously. This track 'What Is It Gonna Be' leaked a long time ago but this is the final album version which brings together two great R&B contemporaries: Mario and Ne-Yo! Their voices really harmonise well and the track is becoming one of my favourites! Things are looking good for Mario's long awaited return with the albums release date now August 21! What do you make of this track?
When I first saw a potential tracklist for 'Here I Am' the track I was most looking forward to hearing was this one. The track is called 'Cash Flow' and features the #1 artist currently in the Billboard 200, T.I.! It seems as though T.I. really can do no wrong as he delivers great thingson this track longside Eve! I have neer been a huge fan of Eve but the three tracks that hae leaked so far have all been hot so it will definitely be an album I'll go out and buy on 6 August! Other artists rumoured to feature on the new album are Rihanna, T-Pain, Akon, Gwen Stefani, Adam Levine, and Shakira! I hope all of these artists do appear as it will make it the hottest album of the year! What do yo make of the track! I go to a lot of effort to bring BRAND NEW music to you guys so some appreciation would make me wanna post more! Thanx!
This is former American Idol contestant Katharine McPhee's second single from her self-titled album! The new single is clled 'Love Story' and I really like the track, I didn't think much of her when I watched her on Idol last year but she has suprised me with her R&B influenced sound! I really like the video and will post the iPod video very soon over at my iPod blog (make sure you check it out!) so stay locked to UK Rep! What do you make of the video or the track, remember you can download the mp3 above the video!
Keyshia Cole Let It Go (feat. Missy Elliott & Lil' Kim)
...
This is the BRAND NEW video from an artist I rate very very highly, Keyshia Cole! It's good to see Missy appear in the video with her! I think Keyshia's voice is amazing, she deserves success beyond belief! The track is also amazing, and if you didn;t downlad it before, make sure you download it now as it is on track EVERYBODY should have! What do you make of the track and the video? I am interested to hear your opinions!
Loads of ne covers for you as always! I would like more of your feedback please! I go to a lot of effort every Thursday to find all the latest BRAND NEW album/single artwork! My favourite is KT Tunstall's new album cover! Although her music is not what I usually listen to , I do like her and am really looking forward to hearing her new material! The Beyonce one is just 'Blah', a new promo picture would have been better, or even a great video still! I am also great to XCLUSIVLY reveal to you the cover of UK Grime artist Kano's new album 'London Town' due for release 3 September. or those of you who have not heard of Kano, be sure to check him out and I will post his new single, which features Craig David and is due to leak soon! I also think that Jennifer Lopez looks gorgeous in the cover for her new single! Which one is you fave? Which one do you not like so much?
I first heard about J. Holiday earlier on in the year with his debut single 'Be With Me' which didn't have thecommercial success I' sure he would have wanted! But now he is back with an ablutely fantastic single called 'Bed' taken from his debut album 'Back Of My Lac' which is set for an October 1 release date! Make sure to keep chcking my release dates in the sidebar for any changes to the date! What do you make of this track and video? Remember as well as watching the video you can also download the mp3 above! Enjoy! Look forward to hearing your opinions!
This time it's real, it is Sean Paul's vocals, the track I posted earlier on in the week was only a demo and the finished version is amzing, Sean & Eve go really well together and create a great Carribean feel to the track! The video has already been shot and hopefully (fingers crossed!) it premiere's before I go away on holiday! What do you make of the track? I would like this blog to incude more of your opinions on the tracks as well as mine! So plase be sure to give your opinion on each track you download as your comments will be greatly appreciated!
