Weekly Music Video

This week's video is Potion by British (Scottish and English) artists Calvin Harris and Dua Lipa, and also featuring American rapper Young Thug. It's the lead single from Calvin's upcoming 6th studio album Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2. I don't think there has been a release date confirmed yet.

DJ, producer and singer Calvin and singer Dua have previously worked together, having collaborated on the single One Kiss back in spring 2018. (I think that One Kiss was meant to be included on Calvin's next album at the time.) Young Thug has also worked with Calvin before, featuring on his single Heatstroke (along with Pharrell Williams and Ariana Grande) in 2017.

Potion was released on 27th May. Please note that the song has explicit lyrics. :)

Note: Young Thug is currently in jail due to gang charges. I only just read this, I didn't know anything about it (don't know if he's guilty or not). I do not condone violent crimes or activity.

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
