Woohoo by Christina Aguilera feat. Nicki Minaj
Aguilera’s first single off her new album “Bionic” was a little too GaGa. This time, Christina shines. The Aguilera name comes with a reputation to unite women together with sexuality and vocals that can shatter glass. A song with lyrics like, “you know you want to put your lips where my hips are,” combined with the newest ravedabout female rapper in the industry, leaves little room for failure.
Rating: 3/5 stars
Between The Lines by Stone Temple Pilots
It’s good to see Stone Temple Pilots finally back together (and sober). But when it comes to comeback tunes, this one is just so-so. The energy is exceptional on the track, but becomes too much toward the end, and the repetitive lyrics in the chorus are just mediocre. With that said, Scott Weiland’s vocals and the guitar solo are the finest parts of the tune.
Rating: 5/5 stars
Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) by Muse
This song paints the picture of the love everyone yearns for. The mix of poetic lyrics, Matthew Bellamy’s Freddie Mercurysounding vocals, the uprising chorus and the soothing piano ending make this track a beautiful addition to the band’s wide collection of perfect tunes.
Rating: 4/5 stars
Find Your Love by Drake
At first glance, there’s nothing even remotely close to Drake’s typical flair in this song. Look at the production notes and you’ll see why.
Producer of the track, Kanye West, offers what sounds like an outtakeofhis ‘808sandHeartbreak’ album. The track shows versatility in Drake. He shows he has vocals, not just rhymes, and can pull off emotion on this club-banger.
Rating: 4/5 stars
My First Kiss by 3OH!3 Feat. Ke$ha
3OH!3 is a little genius band, genius in not taking itself too seriously. They are the masters of making someone smile with their humorous songs’ themes.
The beats in this song are perfect for a clap-along and the lyrics feature innocent, playful sexuality. Ke$ha’s role in the song is pretty useless, though.
