Tinchy Stryder feat. Melanie Fiona - Let It Rain

Tinchy must have a pretty sizable video budget because just weeks after releasing the video for Take The World he's releasing a video for the track Let It Rain. It features the fabulous Melanie Fiona and can be found on Tinchy's new album Third Strike.

Dr. Dre feat. Akon & Snoop Dogg - Kush

Kush is the first single from Dr. Dre's third and alleged final album, Detox. The last time Dre released an album I was in the 6th grade and Bill Clinton was still President, just to give you some context. Kush is pretty radio friendly and has already entered the Billboard top 40.

Dev feat. The Cataracs - Bass Down Low

You couldn't really avoid hearing the hit single that was Like A G6 in 2010. The big club-party anthem surprisingly found fans across different musical tastes and was able to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Credit goes partly to Dev and The Cataracs. With Bass Down Low, these lot prove that they will be having us chest pumping and grinding for many months to come.

Carte Blanche feat. Kid Sister - Do! Do! Do!


The duo of Carte Blanche have teamed up with Chi-town's finest, Kid Sister, for the bouncy and wonderful Do! Do! Do! It's got a late 80's/early 90's party sound and the animated elements also add to that feel of days gone by. Oh, and Kid Sister did her scenes while in Paris. Chouette!

Michael Jackson feat. Akon - Hold My Hand

During the holiday season, I am not always the biggest fan of some of the traditional Christmas musical offerings. So this new single for the Michael Jackson posthumous album actually gets me in a bit of a feel good mood. Plus, it makes me nostalgic for the King himself.

Tinie Tempah feat. Kelly Rowland - Invincible (UK)


Tinie Tempah feat Kelly Rowland - Invincible (Official Video) (www.freshmusic.er.cz) from Scrattchy on Vimeo.

What a year it has been for Tinie Tempah. He's had three songs in the UK top 5 (two of which went to #1). His debut album The Disc-Overy has been certified platinum and rumor has it that some folks in the U.S. are interested in bringing this talented guy over to our shores in the near future. The Invincible video is kind of a celebration of these triumphant 12 months.

Adele - Rolling In The Deep



She's back! The critic's darling and multi-platinum selling chanteuse, Adele, is back with a brand new single and album titled, 21, which will be out in February 2011. Back in 2008, when I first heard Hometown Glory I was positively spellbound. Adele is one of those artists whose voice and lyrics can make you feel a range of emotions and I love her for it.

Bonjay - Stumble (CAN)

Bonjay are the duo of Alanna Stuart and Ian Swain aka Pho. Hailing from Ontario, these Canucks make dancehall based tunes that melange with some slamming electro and indie sounds as well. Bonjay's track Stumble, which is featured on their Broughtupsy EP, has had me swaying my hips this autumn. A full length album better be in the works because I'm craving some more tunes from these two.

Cee Lo Green - It's OK

It's OK is the second single from Mr. Green's album The Lady Killer. What a year it has been for Cee Lo! When I think back to 2006 I always remember how much I loved Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. When I think back to 2010, Fuck You will fill me with some warm and fuzzy nostalgia.
