Cher and will.i.am - The X Factor Final
The Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am is no stranger to The X Factor or Cheryl Cole. One of Cheryl's acts, Cher Lloyd, was joined by will.i.am himself to perform Where Is The Love and I Gotta Feeling. To be honest, it kind of felt like Cher was trying to outstar Mr. will.i.am but I totally see her becoming part of the Black Eyed Peas. But no one will be able to replace Fergie. Oh, and just for interests' sake, Cher was eliminated. Peep her elimination video below. Labels: BLACK EYED PEAS Music Reviews 10 @ 12:19 AM | comment link here

Billboard Update
Rihanna recently hit #1 on the Hot 100 with second single What's My Name? featuring Drake, but now, the lead single from upcoming set Loud has hit the top of the Hot 100 as she collects her ninth #1, becoming the first artist in history to ever have the second single from the album hit #1 before the first single. Meanwhile, the aforementioned Drake-assisted track What's My Name? has slipped to #8 despite getting the Airplay Gainer title for a second week in a row. Could P!nk be on her way to collect another hit #1 with Raise Your Glass? Seems like it. The track surges to #2 this week and might rise again next week after the high profile appearance at the AMAs. Ke$ha's We R Who We R rises to #4 this week after slipping to #6 last week. Katy Perry's Firework is also creeping up the charts, hitting a new peak of #6 for the popstar's latest single. The Glee cast have crashed the Hot 100 yet again this week, as Forget You and Singing In The Rain/Umbrella debut at #11 and #18 respectively. Last week's big Glee track Teenage Dream falls to #36, but still charting strongly compared to other Glee tracks. The Black Eyed Peas fall to #13 with their latest single The Time (Dirty Bit). Awww, looks like not everyone's liking the new track eh, Peas? Bruno Mars' Grenade rockets up to #17 this week as smash hit #1 single Just The Way You Are continues to slip (slowly) down the Top 10 of the Hot 100. OneRepublic's Secrets is still lingering around the Top 30, moving up to #24 this week, a couple spots from its peak of #21. Rihanna's next single S&M debuts at #53 this week. Carrie Underwood moves up one spot with Mama's Song making a new peak at #58. Christina Perri is back on the charts and moving up with Jar of Hearts hitting #62 this week. Taylor Swift's next single Back to December is moving up as well, climbing to #67 this week. Shakira's Loca remains entrenched at #83. Ne-Yo's One In A Million is also moving up, hitting a new peak of #92 this week. Jason DeRulo though, has fallen quite sharply to #96 after peaking at #76 last week. Ke$ha's promo track lifted from Cannibal called Blow debuts at #97 this week. Susan Boyle continues her reign on the Billboard 200 Albums Chart with The Gift hitting #1 for a second week in a row. Another freakishly talented singer Jackie Evancho with her debut EP O Holy Night debuts at #2 while pop megastar Rihanna has to settle for third place for Loud, but also boasts her best first week sales yet. Glee's Christmas album debuts at #8 while Taylor Swift's Speak Now falls to #9. P!nk's Greatest Hits... So Far! debuts at #14 this week. Lee DeWyze' post-Idol debut Live It Up has become the lowest-selling Idol debut album since Kris Allen debuted at #11 with his self-titled post-Idol debut album, entering the chart at #19, selling roughly 39, 000 copies. Oh dear. Mariah Carey's Merry Christmas II You falls to #22 this week while her first Christmas album Merry Christmas surges up to #124.

Black Eyed Peas - The Time (Dirty Bit) [Music Video Premiere]
The weirdest single of the year still goes to The Black Eyed Peas with The Time (Dirty Bit), but it's still shaping up to be quite a hit, debuting at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 last week. After a high profile appearance at the recent American Music Awards, the Peas have released their music video for The Time (Dirty Bit). They are clearly gunning for a big jump next week on the Hot 100. The music video doesn't do anything much for me, but it's less what-the-crap-is-this-mess and more.. Well, fine to listen to.

Black Eyed Peas - The Time (Dirty Bit) live @ AMAs 2010
Dividing critics and fans' opinion on the Black Eyed Peas' new single The Time (Dirty Bit), an over-autotuned wreck, the foursome delivered their first major debut performance of The Time (Dirty Bit). It was generally alright, didn't do much for me. It's definitely going to get a big sales boost though. Labels: BLACK EYED PEAS Music Reviews 10 @ 2:58 PM | comment link here

Black Eyed Peas new track: The Time (The Dirty Bit)
 The Black Eyed Peas have managed to stay on the forefront of the music industry last year when they took over the Hot 100 with their #1 singles Boom Boom Pow and I Gotta Feeling. The group also managed to scrape in a third #1, albeit a less successful one, Imma Be. Nevertheless, the group is back with some new material (though they are still on tour). The Time (Dirty Bit) is the lead single lifted off from their upcoming studio album The Beginning. Honestly, I really don't like this one. It's hardly as immediately infectious as the likes of Boom Boom Pow and I Gotta Feeling. In fact, they actually sample Dirty Dancing's Time Of My Life, which is every bit as cheesy and corny as sampling an old song can be, however, it's also one of the best bits of the song, which shows how bad this song is. I'll admit, I'm not ready for new BEP material yet. Fergie, just go solo again, please. Download Link: HERE Download Link 2: HERE Check out the official single and cover respectively, below.

Lady Gaga stays put at #6 with Alejandro. The Black Eyed Peas' Rock That Body moves up and peaks at #16 this week.

Kris Allen's debut single Live Like We're Dying also climbs this week to #41 up from #70 last week. OneRepublic's latest single All The Right Moves climbs and peaks at #53 this week due to this week's album release. Alicia Keys hasn't done too well with Doesn't Mean Anything, the lead single for her newest studio album The Element Of Freedom which will be released on the 15th of December this year, and has thus moved on to Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart, the second single for her album which has just debuted at #58.

It's Us.
We review the latest in 21st century. Mostly we do pop, but it doesn't really matter, along with new music premieres, video premieres, album premieres.

The Power Rangers of British pop, The Saturdays, are returning this year with a more mature sound and image, with the girlband taking a stab at the pop/dance wave with their fourth album On Your Radar's first single Notorious being a total flip in direction in their sound, and was noticeably more clubby compared to their previous singles and albums. They then took things a level further with the complete rave-tastic All Fired Up, which is without a doubt their best single release, not surprising since the track was produced by production powerhouse Xenomania, the machine behind pretty much all of Girls Aloud's discography. The pop five-piece are charging forward with the Christmassy ballad My Heart Takes Over before their album On Your Radar drops November 21st! Featured Albums.
