New Mariah Carey Song - Obsessed


"Obsessed" is Mariah Carey's first single from her upcoming album "Memoirs of an Angel", due to be released on August 25th. Here are Mariah's thoughts on her new song: "This is one of my favorite songs ever. I love the whole album. I'm completely immersed in it. I can't wait for you to hear it."

Basically the new song is a shot back at Eminem, the lyrics say: “Why you so obsessed with me? Lying that you’re sexing me?” the Greenlawn native sings in the chorus, before delivering the kiss-off “You’re delusional. Boy, you’re losing your mind.”




New Beyonce Video - Broken Hearted Girl


Beyonce has just released the music video for her latest single "Broken-Hearted Girl". The video starts with a tearful Beyonce's crying in her jeep before it moves to her frolicking on a beach, presumably with the man who would later break her heart.

The next single "Sweet Dreams" which Beyonce will release will have a futuristic feel to it and most, if not all, will be in color.



Chaka Khan To Receive Walk of Fame Star!


Chaka Khan has earned herself a star on the Hollywood of fame. It was officially announced yesterday through the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce.

In 2006, Chaka Khan was honored by BET for her contributions to music at the BET Awards.

Bryan Adams, The Funk Brothers, Alan Jackson, Van Morrison, Marco Antonio Solis, Ringo Starr, ZZ Top and posthumously Roy Orbison are among the other many stars who will be receiving a star in 2010.



This version of the song became a million-selling smash in the U.S. and UK, and it helped to relaunch Khan's career. The song peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in December 1984, matching her previous highest pop chart position from ten years prior (the 1974 hit single, "Tell Me Something Good", which she recorded with the band Rufus). The single reached #1 on both the U.S. dance and R&B charts in late 1984, remaining atop both for three weeks apiece. In addition, the song also reached #1 on the UK Singles Chart. While touring with Prince in 1998 in support of her collaborative album, Come 2 My House, Khan and Prince performed "I Feel for You" as a duet. (Wikipedia)
