Supermodel, action movie star, designer and singer… is there anything Milla Jovovich can’t do? Occasionally, in between kicking some butt in movies like ‘Resident Evil‘ or ‘Faces In The Crowd‘, Jovovich dabbles into her musical abilties and has done just that with a new track called “Electric Sky“. ‘The Fifth Element’ star just released the album artwork (shown above) as well as the song and we’ve got your first listen.

In the chorus of the song, Milla sings, “With you I’m blind / All I see is your eyes / With you in my life / Caught in your electric sky.” It has a Scissor Sisters feel to it and is quite catchy. It actually sounds like something that would be found on one of the soundtracks to her movies.

Listen to “Electric Sky” below and let me know what you think!

Rosette Has “Only Just Begun”

In: Calan, Music

This girl is on “FIRE.” Lately Rosette has been all over the map and living the life of a true budding star. Most recently she was in Lommel, Belgium performing at the Daydream Festival with diMaro. Every time she comes out with new music I fall in love a little more. Her song “Amnesia” with Ian Carey and Timbaland was also just added to Much Music’s website. It’s only a matter of time before this girl is all over the place and in my opinion, it will be well deserved.

Give a listen to diMaro and Rosette’s newest track, “We’ve Only Just Begun” which was chosen as the anthem for this year’s Daydream Festival below.

New Music Obsession: Labrinth

In: Music, Tyrell, Videos

I’ve got some more UK music for you, and I know you are going to love this guy. May I introduce you to Timothy McKenzie, better known as Labrinth. This 23-year-old London native is making big waves in the music scene with his unique blend of pop, R&B, dubstep and everything in between. Labrinth is signed with Syco records which is run by talent show megamind, Simon Cowell. Interestingly enough, Labrinth is the first non-talent show artist to be signed to the label in six years. Originally arranged to sign on as a producer, Simon agreed to turn his contract into a solo act.

Labrinth got major recognition when he became working with Tinie Tempah. His co-written and produced track titled “Pass Out” debuted at Number One on the UK Singles Chart and definitely sparked a writing and production chemistry made in heaven. The two collaborated once again on “Frisky.” It debuted at Number Two on the UK Singles Chart, went straight to #1 in Scotland and charted in Australia.

Labrinth’s debut album, “Electronic Earth” dropped on April 2 of this year and has already boasted four massive singles. The lead-off was single, “Let The Sun Shine” was only a tease of what was to come from this young artist. Suddenly, we began hearing tracks like “Earthquake” and “Last Time” which showed Labrinth’s diversity. Friday, Labrinth released the video for his latest single which is remake of the Charles Wright classic, “Express Yourself.” The track has yet to perform as well as previous singles but the video is sure help gain some momentum. Watch & listen below.

Homorazzi has been giving Cheryl Cole a lot more love lately. A few weeks ago, the former Girls Aloud singer and X Factor judge released a brand new solo single with the help of smash dance floor producer and DJ, Calvin Harris. Although the Brit hasn’t officially started promoting “Call My Name” quite yet as the song only was just released onto iTunes in the UK, the single did come with two alternate B-sides.

The first one is titled “Make You Go” and it’s little bit of a schitzophrenic track for what I would normally expect from Cheryl. The track combines a little bit of the Black Eyed Peas with M.I.A. I can’t even place the vocals because they barely sound like her. It’s got a fun little reggaeton beat and the lyrics are little cheeky in the hook, but other than that, there is a clear reason why this track only cut it as a B-side.

The second track is a slower piano ballad titled “Telescope.” It’s a little reminiscent of something I’d expect to hear on Christina Perri’s latest album. While it’s a nice and soulful chance up from “Call My Name,” it fails to really impress. I think if Cheryl’s vocals were presented a little more strongly, it could really be a strong single. However, the producer seemed to have sucked out all the emotion of the her vocal performance. Give a listen to both tracks and tell me what you think.

On Thursday, DJ Pauly D made famous by his antics on MTV’s Jersey Shore debuted the music video for his new single, “Night of My Life” featuring his buddy Dash. The track is basically what you’d expect from Pauly and his crew. The synth and drum heavy track pulses through as dash sings about popping bottles, hitting on girls and checking out the clubs – thus, making it the night of his life.

The video which is basically a bunch of B-roll camera footage thrown together showcases Pauly and his crew as they tour America’s clubs and casinos playing shows for drunk crowds of Jersey Shore wannabes. While I don’t mind the song at all, I wish the video would have been a little more thought out and playful. I’m not the only one who isn’t on board with the video. On Thursday night, Pauly D found himself in the midst of a Twitter feud with dance floor DJ and producer, Deadmau5.

FUN. Has “Fun” With Hayley Williams On Gotye Track

In: Donovan, Music

Given that FUN. and Gotye are arguably two of the biggest breakout artists of 2012, it’s only fitting that one of them cover the other. American indie band FUN. dropped by BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge and performed two acoustic sets. One of which was their huge hit, “We Are Young” and the other a cover of Aussie sensation Gotye’s “Somebody I Used To Know“. The end result is nothing short of amazing.

I admit, I’m a sucker for an acoustic song cover. You can truly tell how talented a musician is when they are forced to perform with minimal instrumentation. Even though FUN.’s performance went off without a hitch, the group faced a bit of drama earlier on. Firstly, band member Andrew got a bad case of food poisoning and couldn’t play the piano which was the basis of their original cover version.

Secondly, they weren’t sure how Hayley Williams from Paramore was going to link in so she could perform Kimbra’s parts of “Somebody I Used To Love“. In the end, the technological obstacle proved inconsequential. Check out both FUN.’s performances below. If you weren’t a fan before, you will be after listening to them.

We all know that Taylor Swift is kind of America’s Sweetheart, but her latest charity gesture definitely puts her in the running from most generous country star – ever. Yesterday, the country musician made a generous donation to the Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum. Just how generous? She donated to the tune of $4 Million. Swift’s donation is the biggest to ever be bestowed upon the museum by a singular country artist. So what exactly is the lump sum going towards?

Expected to open in 2014, the CMHFM will use the money for the new Taylor Swift Education Center which will house an exhibit and classroom space. The museum’s director, Kyle Young said in a statement, “it will allow us to do what we do better, serve more people, develop new programs and I’m happy to say that as we talked through this opportunity with Taylor, she very much wants to be involved in an advisory capacity in what we do. IIs there a better person out there who’s in touch with a young audience?” I couldn’t agree more with the last statement.

It’s great to see a young star doing something great with their money and making an impact on this new generation. Good for you Taylor. In other exciting Taylor news, she recently released a the lyric video for her new single, “Eyes Open.” This lyric video is quite impressive as we watch some stop motion photography bring a desk and some doodles to life. The song is also a total hit and I can hear on any upcoming rom-com soundtrack. Watch Taylor’s newest lyric video and share your comments below.

Sean Kingston has had one rollercoaster of a year. After a treacherous jet ski accident which put Sean in critical condition, it was unsure whether or not we’d see him a make a triumphant return to music. However, it looks like the time as come and this new single couldn’t be more appropriate. The new track is titled “Back 2 Life (Live It Up)” and features the rap stylings of T.I.

The song samples Soul II Soul’s famous 1988 hit track “Back 2 Life” and assume the concept for the track came in light of Sean’s recent accident and recovery. In the track, Sean sings “What don’t kill me, make me stronger / I know it’s gonna be alright / So celebrating tonight, we’re celebrating life tonight.” Producer JR Rotem is responsible for the banger which Kingston states is bringing him back to his island/reggae/pop blend. I personally love the track and can’t wait to see the video which T.I. and Sean already filmed in LA this week. Give a listen to “Back 2 Life (Live It Up)” and tell us what you think in the comments section below.
