UK REP'S MUSIC NEWS - 22 AUGUST: BEYONCE SPECIAL!

I love it when Beyonce hits the headlines and is everybody's talking point so I want to share all the latest from Ms. Knowles with you in my UK Rep's News: Beyonce Special! Below is a video where you an see Beyonce talk EXCLUSIVELY about recording a new album in December due for release early next year/summer 2008! This is great news! She also talks about her recent career highlights such as movies and the tour! Enjoy the video:

...So? What did you make of that? Are you excited about hearing her new material? I sure am! But then again I am a MASSIV Beyonce fan and can see how some of you may be sick of seeing her everywhere! It does seem that Beyonce is addicited to work and cannot stay hapy doing nothing so, as she vows not to do any movies soon she has no choice but to go back in the studio!

Also it seems that beyonce had a wardrobe malfunction while she was on stage promoting her fashion line in Toronto last week! While singing her dress flew up and she flashed her boobs as she was not wearing a bra underneath! The video footage which is available all over the internet can be seen below (unfortunately the quality is not great but you can figure it out!) Enjoy the video:

So what do you think? Do you think it was a publicity stunt? Or do you think it was a genuine wardrobe malfunction? I believe the latter mainly because she is not the type of person to do a Janet Jackson (lol!) and then holds on to the dress for dear life afterwrads in fear that it would happen again! It is pretty funny to see and what with her fall last month as well, and the pyrotechnics drama, her tour certainly was one not to miss! And when I went to see her it was AMAZING! So I cannot wait for the tour to arrive on DVD! Did you enjoy this burst of BRAND NEW Beyonce news? I hope you did! And would love to hear all of your opinions?

Kanye West is all over the UK at the moment having presented the hit late night TV show here in the UK called 'The FridayNight Project' yesterday and aloyesterday he appeared on Tim Westwood's radio show to EXCLUSIVLY play snippets of tracks from his new album 'Graduation' due to hit stores in the UK September 10!

NICOLE DOES WHATEER SHE LIKES LIVE!!!

I know I posted the OFFICIAL music video like five minutes ago! But guess what? Nicole has already performed the track LIVE on the American TV programme 'So You Think You Can Dance?' and it was an AMAZING performance! She really stepped her game up for this performance! And the choreography that is missed from the music video appears in the LIVE performance! So I love love love this first performance of the single!

Also, a bit of confusion as to when the album will be released, many of us were under the impression it came out October 16 but at the end of the video clip Crap Deeley... sorry I mean Cat Deeley says it comes out November 6! Oh well I guess only time will tell! Please let me know what you think of her performance!

CRAIG DAVID'S NEW ALBUM DUE IN NOVEMBER!

Yes! Yes! Yes! I am so glad that I have seen this video:

Here we can see Craig David promise all his fans that he has worked very very hard on his new album which is set to drop in November! I am very excited at the thought of hearing new material! I am liking his new look (shaved head) and his contribution to Kano's new single highlights the great R&B singer that is... Craig David! And what's more he is from the UK so I gotta support him! Are you guys looking forward to his new material?

KANO & CRAIG DAVID THINK THEY'VE FOUND THEIR GIRL!

Kano This Is The Girl (1:40 Snippet)

Kano This Is The Girl (Acoustic)

...

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!

WHO'S THAT GIRL WITH MAROON 5?

Maroon 5 Wake Up Call (Remix) (feat. Eve)

...

There's been a few different collaboration recently and this is the best, most unexpected one of them all! Maroon 5 performed their BRAND NEW single 'Wake Up Call' at MTV's BRAND NEW show '45th At Night', and guess who makes a surprise appearance on the track? Eve! She does seem to be everywhere at the moment, Kelly's single, her single and now this! I hope however that this does not mean that the remix will be the single, yea the remix is good but I wanna see a video to the original song! A video for both would be ideal! I guess only time will tell why Eve appeared on stage with them! Keep it locked to UK Rep as in a future post it will be revealed! What do you make of the remix?

UK REP'S NEWS - 02 JULY - CONCERT FOR DIANA SPECIAL!

Yeterday I was hooked to my TV screen watching what could possibly be the best concert to ever grace this country! The concert was set up by Prince's William and Harry, who wanted to celebrate what would have been Princess Diana's 46th birthday! The line-up was great, the stadium was AMAZING and contrary to weather reports, not one single drop of rain fell! A few technical problem did occur, but we like that as it shows how LIVE it actually is! I have uploaded my fave performances, which have to be P. Diddy, Nelly Furtado, Lily Allen, Joss Stone and Kanye West! Anastacia made a surprise ppearance yesterday singing Andrew Lloyd Webber's hit Superstar from the musical 'Jesus Christ Superstar'! It was also great to see Kanye perform 'Stronger' live although he didn't perform the entire track! The worst performances have to be Fergie and Pharrell! Fergie (I think!) mimed her way through Glamorous and picked hr self up with an acceptable performance of 'Big Girls Don't Cry'! Pharrel, was just a mess (in my opinion) when he first came on stage nd sung Snoop's classic hit 'Drop It Like It's Hot' I though "Oh no! What is he doing?" the song choice for him was dreadful and then he went on to sing 'The Way She Moves' which was OK, but does he really think that his solo material is no good to not have sung one single solo song? He looked good, and like Fergie, that's about it! I have uploaded for your viewing pleasure some video's (even Fergies performance!) from yesterday's concert! If you use any please give me credit! :)

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!

This is amazing! 'Live At Abbey Road' is a popular music show here in the UK and recently Natasha Bedingfield popped by and in this video you can see Natasha talking about her career and her new album.
