Mabel Live Performances

British/Swedish singer Mabel  (full name Mabel McVey) released her second studio album About Last Night... in July (the follow up to her debut High Expectations). The album was created during the pandemic and sees Mabel trying out new sounds (including dance, synth-pop and disco) in addition to the R'n'B she started out with. It's a concept album based around a party.

The lead single from About Last Night... is Let Them Know and two others were subsequently released- Good Luck with British DJ Jax Jones and Swedish music duo Galantis, and Overthinking with American rapper and singer 24kGoldn.

Here are a couple of live performances from the album.

 

Let Love Go (Live)

First up is a live performance of Let Love Go, a promotional single. It was released in late June. The album and single versions feature American rapper and singer Lil Tecca, but this live Vevo performance is a solo one by Mabel. The video was uploaded on 29th June.

Overthinking (Live)

And here is a live version of Overthinking, the 3rd single from the album which was released in May. This is a solo version and the video was uploaded on 15th July, the same day that About Last Night... came out.

What do you think of ABLN? I haven't listened to the full album yet but from what I've heard, I prefer Mabel's older R'n'B style music (like on the Bedroom EP and Ivy to Roses mixtape) and songs from High Expectations. I do like the songs I've heard so far though; my favourite is Overthinking. And it's cool to see artists try new styles. :) I will share any more fave songs once I've listened to the whole thing.

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
