This are my two fave tracks on her new album "Hardcandy".

Missy's New Album Title

We've been waiting patiently, we've heard a few new tracks, and now we finally have a date. August 26th, Missy Elliott's 7th (8th if you include the Best Of) studio album "FANomenol" will be hit stores. As we know, producers on the album include Soul Diggaz, Danja, and Timbaland. To help promote the new album, Missy recently performed her rumored first single "Act A Fool" in Malaysia at the XLive Music Festival.

What about the Danja produced "Best Best" as the first single you ask? Seems as though there's been some debate on which track would indeed be the official first single. Looks like "Best Best" won the debate though as the single is scheduled to be released June 2nd, only a few weeks away! We'll keep you posted as more news becomes available.

New Mika Album

Mika is making headway with the follow-up album to his mega-hit debut, "Life in Cartoon Motion." The artist caught up with Billboard.com yesterday (May 22) during the Ivor Novello awards ceremony, where he won songwriter of the year.
"I'm writing my second album," he said, adding that at least three tracks were already in the bag. "It's all about building those songs after the process of the first album, and they're coming along, which is comforting."
The album, explained the U.K.-based, Lebanese-born singer, doesn't yet have a title or a release date. "There's a lot of debate and discussion as to when it will come out though," he said. "Now I'm just focusing on writing the songs."
"Life in Cartoon Motion" (Casablanca/Island) has three IFPI Platinum Europe Certifications, for pan-European shipments in excess of three million units. In Britain, the set is certified four-times platinum (1.2 million copies) after 67 weeks on the Official U.K. Albums Chart, where it is currently at No. 54.
Mika has a host of European dates booked this summer, beginning July 3 at the Rock Werchter in Leuven.

The Ciara Album

R&B singer Ciara has slated her third album, "Fantasy Ride," for a September release via Jive. Rather than one standard CD, the music will be spread across three separately packaged discs, bundled together, each with five to six songs catering to a different theme.

The first disc is called "Groove City" and will contain sensual songs like "Promise," while the second disc is called "Crunktown" and includes tracks akin to Ciara's 2004 introductory single, "Goodies." Finally, the up-tempo "Kingdom of Dance" will showcase Ciara's house-leaning, freestyle-tinged cuts.

Producer Tricky Stewart, who crafted Rihanna's "Umbrella," is co-executive-producing the project along with Ciara. Danja is helming both "Crunktown" and "Kingdom of Dance," while "Groove City" is led by Tricky and Jasper.

An official single will drop in June, according to the label. Ciara's last album, 2006's "The Evolution," has sold 1.3 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

The artist appears in the upcoming film "Mama I Want To Sing," co-starring Lynn Whitfield and Patti LaBelle, which hits theaters in October.

New Cassie Song

Another song from Cassie has leaked today. The song is called "2 The Morning" and it's a great club banger. The beat is really amazing, very dark with big bass. The song is produced by Bryan Michael Cox (Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige) and he did a very good job. This joint is much better than her comeback single "Official Girl". Hope this album will rock the world.

New Leona Single

Check out this message from Leona Lewis herself:

Hey Everyone,

The last two weeks have been a whirlwind. I’ve been lucky enough to visit two countries I’ve never been to before and never imagined that I would!

I headed to Australia straight from LA - it was so beautiful flying in and looking out of the plane window, what a stunning country.

I spent about a week there, and it was really incredible. I went to the MTV Awards and presented an award with Brian McFadden - he was good fun. I also performed a live event for fans and media, sang on the live final of ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ (the dancers are so talented!) and also Sunrise (an early morning TV show)! It was super-busy but I got to perform for a lot of people and take my music to the world, which has always been my biggest dream!

I also got to do a bit of sightseeing - I saw the famous bats in the Botanical Gardens (there are literally hundreds and they are SO big!), I did a ferry trip across from Circular Quay harbour (where the Opera House and Harbour Bridge are!) and went for a walk and dinner at Bondi. Lou was with me so it was nice to experience it together.

I can’t wait to go back to Australia and spend more time there. I only experienced Sydney on this visit but I hear the rest of the country is simply incredible!

I then flew onto Tokyo in Japan, which is where I’m currently writing!

I absolutely love it here- the people are so gracious and lovely. I’ve so enjoyed looking around and the shopping (especially in Shibuya & Harajuku!)

I’ve been fortunate enough to perform on some music shows here, Music Fair, Music Station and a breakfast TV called Mezamasshi, they were all incredible fun. I had a translator who came to all the shows with me called Hitomi, she was amazing and even taught me some Japanese words - Arigato!!!

I did a showcase in Tokyo where I performed four tracks - the night before there was an earthquake so we were all woken up by it at like 2am! We are staying in the tallest building in Tokyo and you could really feel it swaying! The following day there was another tremor while I was performing! Yikes!!!

I’ve had the most amazing experiences in these countries and I’m so excited about coming back and visiting more in the future, the support I have received is so overwhelming and I am so grateful and thankful to everyone who has made this trip so enjoyable.

So I now head back to LA to shoot my video for ‘Forgive Me’ - I’m not going to tell you the idea behind it, as I want it to be surprise, I’m super excited!

Luv

Leona

After the 1st listen I don't like the song, but it grows on me. Think this will do good on the charts in the USA. I don't know if this song will be release here in europe too. Time will show.

New Mariah Video

Here is finally the new video for Mariah's 2nd single "Bye Bye". Think it's a great choice. It's a perfect Mariah ballad. This will do very well on the charts. The video is very personally and shows her new husband. Nice video, but nothing special.

New Goldfrapp Single

Pop magicians Goldfrapp are set to release a new single - "Caravan Girl" - on June 30th, to be accompanied by a new UK tour. Think this is the one of the last commercial tracks on this album, which should be singles. I think it's time for them to go back to studios, cause i want a more electro/glam rock album like "Supernature". The video should be very cool, with great outfits like Alison wears in the shooting for the album artwork.
