[New Music] Kylie Minogue "Flower"

I was not expecting such mature gorgeousness from Kylie Minogue's new material. Shame on me.

New single Flower is a gentle, beautifully arranged ballad, full of strings and romantic overtones. Co-written by the singer, the song showcases the often unheard strength of Ms Minogue's voice. It's a stark contrast to the nasal, biting tone that's usually employed to her brand of electro-pop, but it demonstrates nicely the versatility of the Australian Pop Princess's voice.

[Watch] Fantasia, Joe, and Karen Clark Sheard Tribute Mariah Carey at the BMI Urban Awards

Mariah Carey finally seems to be getting some recognition from the music industry she has pretty much been on top of for over two decades- we won't mention the "G" word.

Last year Mariah was honoured by BET, where Patti Labelle and Kelly Rowland paid tribute to the 5-octave singer with their performances of Hero and Fantasy [See here]. This year it was the turn of the BMI Urban Awards to celebrate Mariah Carey and her skill as a lyricist.

[Watch] P!nk And No Doubt Join Forces @ I Heart Festival

Say What?! P!nk AND Gwen Stefani on one stage?  Performing? Together?? Yes, calm down! It happened during No Doubt's set at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas. Unfortunately it was for only (half of) one song, but what song could be more appropriate than the girl power anthem, Just A Girl.

[Video Review] Florence Welch And Calvin Harris "Sweet Nothing"

I really wasn't sure about the Calvin Harris and Florence Welch collaboration, Sweet Nothing. Being a fan of both Brits I was expecting to have fallen madly in love with it on first listen, and this not happening left me confused, ashamed and shaking uncontrollably.

However, time, and repeated exposure to the song, have somewhat warmed me to it. I was only hoping the Vincent Haycock directed video would turn up the heat on our thawing relationship. But that didn't happen.

[Watch] Norah Jones Performs At 2012 Itunes Festival

Some may find Norah Jones a little like musical ether, but not me, big fan here! As far as I'm concerned, she possesses one of the smoothest vocal tones of all the Divas currently in operation, and it never ceases to beguile me with its quiet beauty. Yet, no vocal profile...naughty me.

[Listen] Lady Gaga Raps On New (Joke) Song "Cake Like Lady Gaga"

Ever wanted to hear Lady Gaga go hard over a dirty beat? Well Mother to monsters all over the world has done just that on newly leaked- I assume joke- track,  Cake Like Lady Gaga.

 Erm...Enjoy? Lol!

[New Music] Leona Lewis "Glassheart"

Title track Glassheart has hit the net, and it clearly shows that Leona Lewis isn't quite done with the clubs yet!

Whereas flop, lead single Collide approached the genre in a lazy and cynical way-with Leona merely providing a vocal over an already huge dance track in the hope it would guarantee a hit- Glassheart proves the X-Factor winner can hold her own in the club, material willing!
