Do it like a brother, do it like a dude... Jessie J is the hottest tip of 2011 by a mile, she writes, performs and has a versatile voice that is going to win her every type of fan going. Although Jessie J has spent most part of her career writing for others such as Miley Cyrus and Justin Timberlake she has now managed to secure a new album as an artist in her own right, all this at the tender age of just 22! She is also writing for Leona Lewis and Britney Spears.
Jessie J has already won the critics choice award for the Brits 2011, other winners include Ellie Goulding, Florence and the machine and Adele, so it is inevitable that Jessie J will go on to be a major success.
I see Jessie J as the future of the UK and even worldwide music scene, she has the whole thing, and will go on to global success!
Although Jessie' life has been no bed of roses, she believes that has made her stronger and given her the ability to write the songs she has. I cannot wait for the album 'Who You Are' which is due for release in early 2011. Also, I might take this opportunity to mention that we are both from Essex, so it goes without saying, I am instantly biased and must worship her sound, but it helps that her sound is pretty amazing.

WOW... OK so the other day I featured Clare Maguire' song 'Ain't Nobody' where the song is pretty epic in itself, the video equally, but this song just tops it, the official first single 'The Last Dance' - I cannot stop watching the video, I am obsessed and want more more more. She gives me goosebumps and I feel good watching her- I am such a fan, I will need to go see her live.
Anyway..enough of my waffle let the amazing video and song captivate you like it has me..
I have just found another new obsession, I love Sunday Girl, new single Stop Hey is set to be released in the UK in January 2011. I think it deserves much greatness. Have a listen below. She is stunning and so cool, and unique, I want to see more music from her.. the voice is just amazing and captivates me. If you like what you see below you should check out Sunday Girls website HERE I love all the music on there and her random pictures of dressing up animals lol.
I think big things are in the pipeline for Sunday Girl, at a time when so many new UK female artists are emerging and gaining credibility where it has been so hard before, Sunday Girl is definitely a real contender for chart glory, along with other acts in 2011 Jessie J, Clare Maguire, Adele, Natalia Kills, Leona Lewis and Ellie Goulding there really is something for everyone. I am glad we seem to be getting more credible artists here, for so long our charts have been dominated by the American power diva's and now it is the UK's turn to show the rest of the world what we can offer.
Clare Maguire is already a hot tip for 2011, I only heard about her over the festive period on a music channel and instantly thought, hmm this little lady is the Florence and The Machine of 2011, not that their music is similar but their presence and the feel of what is surrounding them. She has said that debut album 'Light After Dark', to be released in February 11, is an epic record, and judging from the below video this will indeed be the case. I remember when I first heard 'Dog Days Are Over' and told everyone I knew about it, and it seemed forever before it was famous, maybe that is the way Clare will go, but either way she will be a huge success all over the world, I can feel it.
Recording of the debut album has taken over 2 years and I am sure for Clare, the release of first single 'Ain't Nobody' is a huge relief to see her hard work pay off, and with the critical acclaim she is fast gathering, I think the only way is up for her in the coming months.
Happy New Year readers, what a way to start - blogging about the people that inspired me to start and the subject of my first ever blog (As seen here) this being my first blog in 2011 it seemed fitting to once again bang on about how great Dragonette are! They have so much to offer and I can't understand why they have not yet exploded into the charts.
I will start with most recent offering, Martin Solveig featured Dragonette on a single called Boys and Girls, it was awesome, HOWEVER, newer single (it has been around since June 10) Hello is genius and is now officially available for download, I love it so much.
Please if you like even one track below, look into their already vast catalogue of music, they have some really awesome songs (such as Take It Like A Man, Gone Too Far, Liar, Stupid Grin, Pick Up The Phone and I get around but to name a few more reasons to love them).
1) Martin Solveig featuring Dragonette - Hello
2) Dragonette - Our Summer - this is a tune of epic quality in my eyes.
3) Dragonette - Fixin To Thrill - equally A-MAZING.
4) Kaskade feat Dragonette - Fire in your new Shoes
5) Dragonette - Easy - slower but still a great song - tough choice as there are more than 5 reasons to love Dragonette.
Ok so I have been away a while but what a better way to come back with the amazing Natalia Kills long awaited official video for single 'Mirrors' - it was worth the wait for me, I have been banging on about Kills for some time now here, here and here I really think she is the next big thing, I cannot wait to hear the album and everything else she is going to offer. Kills is not any ordinary musician, she is a producer, writer and is British born and I am a massive backer of British artists trying to make it in a big wide world. Natalia absolutely has 'IT' and I am so excited for her promotional trail that is going to leave many other acts in a cloud of smoke. I want to see her live, I want more videos - a sign of someone very exciting indeed. With Lady GaGa coming back in the new year this 2011 is already shaping up to be an amazing year musically.
Can't wait to see what else Natalia Kills is going to bring in 2011, I basically am obsessed to the point that I am sitting up late the first day I have Internet access back to hastily type this, so that I can introduce many more people to this sheer tune, I will be one of her biggest fans I know it. This blog should be named after her haha. People at work are sick of me going on about how big she will be!
Natalia will be everywhere in the New Year like GaGa was in 09 - and nobody believed me when I said she was going to be huge, mark my words Kills is going to kill other opponents off with her dark dance rock pop r n b and go on for mega success, I can feel it.
I am gutted, I have no Internet at home at the moment, but the new song of Natalia Kills - Mirrors video has finally been premiered - all I can read is teaser's - go forth and check it out, I must find an Internet cafe or something so I can view it as live streaming is BLOCKED at work...booo.
It will be as amazing as I have been expecting for the past god knows how many months... I so want to see this.
Let me know what you think, and I hope to post it soon. :-(
