The web has been blasting off in the name of music’s new lady sensation, Lana Del Rey. The New York-native has become a viral vixen over the past year after dropping her single “Video Games” through Interscope Records in June 2011. She has since become the indie-pop fascination of hipsters and music-diggers around the globe. Now her major label debut Born To Die is all kinds of amped.
The 25-year old Lana (real name Elizabeth Grant) has quite a distinct voice and sound, drawing influence from Elvis Presley, Kurt Cobain and Britney Spears. She definitely has the voice of a 1950s noir princess and blends it with hip-hop-influenced pop-rock. Think Nancy Sinatra meets early Kelis directed by Jeff Bhasker.

Well his new album Fortune is coming around the corner, so it’s back to the eletro-dance tracks for Yellow Cake Brown. His new single “Turn Up The Music” (produced by The Underdogs) has been released to radio stations today and will be available for digital download on February 14th.
I’m not crazy about all this Americanized house music, but the song isn’t terrible. Chris is still finishing up the new album and plans to announce the official release date soon. You can listen to the new song after the jump!

During her concert in Stockholm, Sweden this past Monday, Lauryn Hill implied (again) that she plans on returning to music and recording a new album.
It’s been close to 14 years since the release of her classic solo release, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which has gone 8x Platinum in the US and earned Ms. Hill five Grammy awards in 1999, including Album of The Year.
Fans have been pining for new music ever since and there have been several hints of a return over the years. Here is what Lauyrn has to say now.

Curry Goat is in love with these tattoos, chile. The pop star turned Shamrock Social Club into her own little ink party yesterday where she had the words “Thug Life” etched across her knuckles. Lord, I pray that this tacky mess is just temporary. Think of how she’ll look 30 years from now.

Aunt Kizzy slows things down to a romantic pace in the “Keep It Between Us” video. She and love interest, Lance Gross are all booed up in Paris taking photographs and long walks. It’s a very cute video for an okay song, which will probably serve as the last of Kelly’s Here I Am era. Watch below.

Los Angeles songbird, Elle Varner stormed the scene last year with her debut track “Only Wanna Give It To You”, featuring King Jermaine Lamarr Cole. Although I appreciated the new-school soul in her voice, I didn’t appreciate her all in my man’s face. So I had to wait for more material.
Now the 22-year old Varner has dropped her first mixtape, Conversational Lush, and it’s pretty dope! She hooked up with Bei Major, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, and Pop & Oak for some of the production. The beats mixed with Elle’s beautiful voice (and a few rap bars) all just blend really well. I’m in love with it. Check the tape out under the cut!

Christopher’s rep claims that Teen Nick’s Bobby & Whitney are just friends and he’s madly in love with his new girlfriend, Karcoochie Tran, but that didn’t stop rumors from flying when all three were spotted at the same club in LA last night.
