Ke$ha has taken over the Hot 100 with latest single We R Who We R debuting at #1 on the chart, the first female artist to do so since Britney Spears managed the same feat last year with 3 and the first artist male or female to do so since Eminem debuted at #1 with Not Afraid earlier this year. Rihanna's Only Girl (In The World) has been pushed down a spot to #4. P!nk continues to cling on to #10 with latest single Raise Your Glass. Taylor Swift has shifted a remarkable million copies of her third album Speak Now, and some album favourites have made their way on the Hot 100: Sparks Fly, Innocent, The Story Of Us, Dear John, Better Than Revenge, Haunted, Last Kiss, Enchanted, Never Grow Up, Long Live debut at #17, #27, #41, #54, #56, #63, #71, #75, #84, #85 respectively. Katy Perry's latest single Firework shoots up to #29 up from making a debut at #57 last week. Unfortunately, Shakira's latest single Loca has fallen to #58 after it reached a peak of #32 last week. Rihanna's latest single What's My Name? hits a new peak of #60, gaining the title of Airplay Gainer. Glee Cast's Time Warp enters the Hot 100 at #89 while Michael Buble's latest single Hollywood re-enters the Hot 100 at #90. Christina Perri's Jar of Hearts returns to the Hot 100 at #96 this week while Ne-Yo's One In A Million finally finds its way to the Hot 100, debuting at #97 this week.
Over on the Billboard 200 albums chart, Taylor Swift has shifted over a million units of her third studio album Speak Now, which has thus been certified platinum in its first week of release. Glee's The Rocky Horror Glee Show falls a spot to #7 from its debut at #6 last week. Michael Buble's Hollywood: The Deluxe EP makes an entrance at #10 this week. Shakira's latest record Sale El Sol falls to #16 while the Hannah Montana Forever soundtrack has fallen to #17. Katy Perry's sophomore pop album Teenage Dream moves up to #18 up from #22 last week. Michael Buble's multi-platinum selling album Crazy Love skyrockets to #27 up from #115, earning the Greatest Gainer title. David Archuleta's sophomore pop album has fallen to #163. Glee's Mark Salling's first studio album Pipe Dreams debuts at #189.
Ne-Yo's lead single Beautiful Monster from upcoming album Libra Scale hasn't done well at all, forcing Ne-Yo to put out an urban single Champagne Life which is doing only slightly better. Thus, Ne-Yo has pushed Libra Scale backwards to October 19th. Ne-Yo's got a new single in the works, which is what we have here, called One In A Million. Hopefully, he'll do better with this release though I wish he'd release something like Closer or Miss Independent. Nevertheless, enjoy!

Ne-Yo's brand new single Beautiful Monster falls down one spot to #65. Remember one of the songs on Miley Cyrus' new album Can't Be Tamed I singled out to be a stand out ballad? Guess what, the stand out ballad Stay debuts at #75 this week thanks to digital downloads. Miranda Cosgrove's teen-friendly pop/rock debut single as a proper recording artist Kissin' U re-enters at #93 while Adam Lambert's latest single If I Had You debuts at #94.
On the Billboard 200 albums chart, Eminem sells well over 750, 000 copies of Recovery, which lands him a spot at #1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Miley Cyrus' latest album Can't Be Tamed debuts at #3, selling a meagre 102, 000 copies in its first week. (Anyone remember the disappointing album sales of Christina Aguilera's Bionic and she's been trying hard to keep afloat? Careful, Miley). Speaking of Bionic, which has been on the chart for a third week now, it hasn't just slipped out of the Top 10, it's slipped out of the Top 20 altogether, holding unsteadily at #22. Round And Round, Selena Gomez & The Scene's lead single from their upcoming sophomore album might not be available on their debut album, but it seems Kiss & Tell is seeing the effects of Round And Round hitting #118 up from #152 the previous week. After I feared that Charice's debut international album Charice would fall of the charts this week after slipping all the way to #173 last week, she has rebounded back at #139 this week. After Katy Perry's domination on the Hot 100, it's not surprising her debut album has found its way back in the chart, re-entering at #175.
Katy Perry's California Gurls continues to dominate the Hot 100 while Ke$ha's Your Love Is My Drug slips 1 place to #5 this week. After the music video premiere, Lady Gaga's Alejandro moves back to its peak at #6. The Black Eyed Peas stay put at #9 with Rock That Body. Jason DeRulo's latest single Ridin' Solo hits its peak at #19, trailed behind by previous single In My Head. Alicia Keys' latest single also makes a move up to #22, along with Carrie Underwood's Undo It, rising to its current peak at #23 while Miley Cyrus' Can't Be Tamed falls 2 spots to #24. Justin Bieber's contribution to The Karate Kid soundtrack featuring star Jaden Smith comes in the form of Never Say Never, which debuts at #33. The 2010 FIFA World Cup's Waka Waka (This Time For Africa) performed by Latin artist Shakira debuts at #44. Usually on album release weeks, the lead single from the album will start picking up digital downloads, but Christina Aguilera's latest studio album Bionic has picked up a higher charting single on the Hot 100 compared to its second single WooHoo featuring female rapper Nicki Minaj, Bionic the title track makes a debut at #66. But it isn't all hopeless for Bionic's lead single Not Myself Tonight, it re-enters at #75, hopefully it starts to go up again now while second single WooHoo re-enters the Hot 100 at #99. Beautiful Monster, Ne-Yo's latest single, also the lead single from his upcoming album debuts at #67. I'm not sure why it's started to go up again, but P!nk's Glitter In The Air is rising the charts again, moving up to #86 this week.
Glee's latest soundtrack bows at #1, beating out The Twilight Saga: Eclipse's soundtrack which arrives at #2. Christina Aguilera's brand new album Bionic bows at #3. Colbie Caillat's Breakthrough returns to the Top 100 as the album moves up to #100. Charice's self-titled debut falls to #156.
Ne-Yo has been working on a new album lately and here's what he's managed to produce. Beautiful Monster serves as the lead single for his brand new album Libra Scale. This upbeat dance/R&B number wasn't exactly what I expected (a haunting ballad) but nevertheless, it's pretty catchy. Beautiful Monster isn't as good as previous singles Closer and Miss Independent from his last release Year of the Gentleman but Beautiful Monster could go on nicely to be a hit. Enjoy!

Closer was released as the first single from Ne-Yo's third studio album Year of the Gentleman. It was a UK #1 and spent 11 weeks in the UK Top 10. Closer became the fifteenth biggest selling single in the UK in 2008 according to BBC Radio 1's chart of the year.
The song and its music video were used in a commercial for Overstock.com in early 2008. The commercial was also used as promotional tool for Year of the Gentleman.
Closer earned Ne-Yo a nomination for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, while the Stonebridge Radio Edit was nominated for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical for the 51st Grammy Awards, which were held on February 8, 2009 plus his very first #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart.
Ne-Yo is featured in the soundtrack of Walt Disney's latest movie - The Princess And The Frog. The music video will be shot for the single and hope you like Never Knew I Needed.

Now this, is a good dance anthem. Miss Independent was Ne-Yo's second single off his 2008 album Year Of The Gentleman. I heard the lead single Closer, and thought it was decent, but this is better. It's also catchier too. This is the word in dance tracks by the pop male, contemporary artists. This song was designed to please.
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. If the links don't work, please notify me in the cbox right below and I will post a new link in the cbox. Thanks.
Artist Of The Month. (November 2011)
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!
