Summer Vibes

Summer is in full swing now (especially after the heatwave this past week), so today I'm sharing some summer vibes! For the past couple of years, I've featured round-ups of summer themed songs on the blog. You can see them below:

And now here are a few more songs with summer vibes! :)   


thuy feat. P-Lo- inhibitions

inhibitions by American singer thuy (both song title and thuy's name are stylised in lower case) and featuring rapper P-lo was released back in April. I featured it as a Weekly Music Video in May and the video made me think of summer, so I'm including it in this post.

Pérola- Sincera

Angolan singer Pérola's latest single Sincera (released in April) also gives me summer vibes, due to the scenes of her and her lover on a boat and the beach! See it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2022/07/weekly-music-video.html

 

Ylona Garcia- Vibin

This is Vibin by Ylona Garcia. She is a Filipino-Australian singer and actress who started out as a support act for Filipino singers as a child/pre-teen. She also entered several singing competitions.

Ylona got her big break in 2015, after becoming a housemate in the second special edition of Pinoy Big Brother (the Filipino version of the reality show) and finishing as runner up. She went on to release her debut EP My Name is Ylona Garcia in August 2016 and has also appeared in several other TV shows.

Ylona was briefly part of teen pop group ASAP G! but ultimately ended up pursuing a solo career. Her singles include debut Dahan Dahan Dahan Lang, Walk in My Timbs featuring Jay R, Split Milk featuring Billy Davis, All That, Don't Go Changin and Vibin.

As well as signing to Filipino record labels, Ylona signed to 88rising (an American mass media company and record label that primarily represents Asian artists) last year. She is managed by PARADISE RISING, 88risiing's Filipino record label and is currently based in LA for her music career.

Vibin was released in June and the video suits summertime. :)

B Young feat. BNXN- OCEAN

And finally, this is OCEAN, the new single by British rapper and singer B Young, and featuring Nigerian singer BNXN. It's a laidback song with a video full of lovely beach scenes!

The video premiered in June.  




I also included B Young's single Come Alive in last year's summer songs round-up post. 


Hope you enjoyed the post and that your summer is going well! (Or your winter, depending where you live!) :) What songs represent summer to you?

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).

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
