First Love, J. Lo's new single is
out there. Not sure if it's a demo or finished version, but I'm willing to bet it's the latter. If I had to compare it to one song, it would be Xtina's Your Body, only slightly less
big, if that makes any sense. It could smash with the right video and promotion, but it's not something that'll be massive.
update: It's up on Popjustice.
Oh, and Alpines have released a video for their new single.
Alpines - No Other Lover
edit: in other news, Jessie J
keeps being herselfobnoxious.
#jessiejalbum3 #jessiejrecordingdiary #jessiejbehindthemic I wanted to show you what I am like before the polished videos and mixes and masters. This is the bit most of the time you don't get to see of me, even though this is where I work the hardest before promo and release. I put my phone on when I'm recording and forget it's there to capture myself at my most realist. Because when I know a camera is there even if I try I know I am aware and I don't relax. It's always a little showier than the real real of the real. How much I self criticise (constructively) in the studio to improve. How silly I am, how pissed off I can get when I can't get the notes. How I don't bother wearing makeup. How much I swear, uh huh it's ALOT! Yep! My hay-fever trying to be a flipping feature on every song. How much I frown. How hot and sweaty and stressed I get. How much I love what I do. How important it is to me for everything to be clean and clear and well executed. How I coach myself. How I don't use tuning so I challenge myself. How I practice between takes. How much I can get it wrong. It's all part of a real process of making music or anything creative. It's about self improvement and self reflection. I love to sing. But that isn't enough. Making it your living is a different game. So I this time to focus on making sure the core of it all the music is where I want it to be and how I want it to feel and sound. I love making music and not a day goes by that I don't think about how thankful I am to my heartbeats/fans for this opportunity. Nothing is ever promised. I have to work hard for this, nothing should be handed on a golden platter. And you can't get comfortable, EVER! It's about me understanding and managing my expectations and being BETTER always and just simply being MYSELF! ��✌️❤️
p.s. Rebecca & Fiona's album
Beauty is Pain is out.
I honestly expected much more simply because I loved the first one. This one is more poppy, and less house-y sounding, though that may be to the fact that Rebecca isn't with Adrian Lux anymore (he produced most of the first album). Overall it has some solid tracks, but for the most part it's forgettable. And I can't believe they left out two really good singles they released after
I Love You Man:
Taken Over (feat. Style of Eye)
