If You Aren't Listening To It Already, You Should be

These two heavyweight tracks don't dissapoint!!!! First of is 'Strange Clouds' which is the first single from B.o.B's second studio album..this one features (again) Lil Wayne. (He seems to be having a good run on his collaborations!) Here's a trailer for the new single.... Then Rihanna takes the Kelis route and tries out Calvin Harris on a track called 'We Found Love'. This one's gonna be all over the charts!!! Two great tunes on a Monday!!! It doesn't get better than that!

Speedy Singh

I think Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar have set Bollywood's newset trend of roping in international artists to make music for their movies. Akon's 'Chamak Challo' for Shah Rukh Khan's Ra One is a major thumbs down...but on the contrary Ludacris fares really well on 'Shera Di Kaum' with Akshay Kumar for his home production 'Speedy Singh'. The cast for the movie includes Rob Lowe, Camilla Belle and funnyman Russell Peters!! I've seen the promos and Russell Peters' is hilarious in this one!

Freedom

When you are the designer 'du jour', it's hard to go unnoticed and before long your signature style soon loses it's sheen.... I think that's going to be the case with Falguni and Shane Peacock....so with one look at the outfits for the new Sugababes single 'Freedom' and you know who designed the outfits.

If You Aren't Listening to it Already, You Should be

I've been away...so I wasn't able to cover the last of August's new releases...the highly anticipated Jay-Z Kanye collaboration, 'Lift Off' was a bit of a let down. But I found that Lil Wayne and Drake's 'She Will' is a keeper. Keeping it similar, Lil Wayne also teamed up with Bruno Mars for 'Mirror' which is one of the three tracks off the deluxe edition of Lil Wayne's Tha Carter IV, his ninth studio album. On a lighter note, I'm also loving 'Trouble' by Bei Major featuring J. Cole...

Covers of Fall

As far as magazine covers go, I seldom find any to write home about, not that there aren’t some really good ones out there but after a while they all kind of blend into each other. However September’s issue of Harpers Bazaar caught my eye...not only because Sonam Kapoor looks spectacular on the cover; it is her photo shoot inside that I thought deserved a mention. With Ms. Kapoor on board, the outcome of any photo shoot is undoubtedly going to be stunning. Being the style-chameleon that she is her adeptness at channeling looks with ease and confidence is uncanny, which is why I think this is such a great shoot. With the onset of “Fall” and the ubiquitous somber shades being the norm for Fall collections, this particular piece manages to radiate warmth and a very luxurious feel.
The styling has a very old-world glamour, post-war drama and a modern-day Scarlett O’Hara vibe and is shot against rich, jade foliage. On the cover, Ms. Kapoor is in a signature Falguni and Shane Peacock creation. Inside the magazine, she has been photographed in Cue, Armani Fall 2011. I love the shot of her in the black Rahul Mishra Fall 2011 outfit against the moss covered steps. With Ms. Kapoor promoting her new movie, it's going to be interesting to watch her spate of uber-chic appearances.
