Britney Spears as a musician is practically unstoppable. Since her early days as a teen pop icon, she continues to amaze her fans around the world. Although there is still ridicule and criticism on her private life, her focus on creating music is back. The latest album isn’t comparable to her early days but her current songs are good enough to attract positive attention.
Her latest album “Britney Spears: Femme Fatale” is another set of songs that deviates from her past trends after her tumultuous personal life. Instead of answering the critics through a song, the songs are now focused on something else. This is actually a welcoming change since not everyone really wants to hear a song as a response to critics.

Michael Jackson may have passed away but he can still find a way to entertain his fans.
A new album was launched on December 14, 2010 simply called “Michael”. The songs in the album were originally recorded in 2007 and were completed after his death. The album features the hit single “Hold My Hand” which is a duet with Akon. It also contains ten tracks produced by different producers that are all recognized in the industry and had worked with the King of Pop beforehand.
Before the “Michael” album, the film “This is It” became a huge hit around the world. The original sound track with the same name as the film sold well online and in record stores. Just like “This is It,” the people behind the album have huge expectations for its success. The cover of the latest album was made by Kadir Nelson. The cover depicts the different events and personalities that made significant impact to the singer’s life.

What an unexpected couple! After Beyoncé featuring in Lady Gaga’s single Telephone, the two ladies duplicated the experience with the latest video release of Video Phone. The video has the unmistakable touch of famous hip hop and R&B video director Hype Williams and has become a big hit on the web, probably more because of the sexy outfits and choreos of the ladies rather than the song, which in itself seems to have received quite a lukewarm attention.

Natalie Imbruglia, the singer we loved in the late 90’s and early 2000’s is back with a new album which is entitled Come to Life that is expected to be released by the month of May this year. Fans surely misses her and the beautiful songs she sings with an incredibly talented voice that had been absent for too long. Now she’s finally making a come back!
Coldplay has a bitter reaction to her new album though. Not that they are against her or anything but because they gave her a song which may be entitled “Scars” and they claim it’s the best song they have ever written. It could have been the best Coldplay song, they said, but because they’re no longer in cycle, they can’t sing it anymore. Coldplay said Natalie did a good job with the song and she has a very unique talent and great voice.
