New Music for 2022- Various

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a post sharing some new music releases for 2022. That one focused on Bollywood and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2022/01/new-music-for-2022-bollywood.html

Today I'm featuring some more new songs from a mixture of genres- K-pop, Latin and Western! :)


MOMOLAND X NATTI NATASHA- Yummy Yummy Love

First up is Yummy Yummy Love, a collaboration between Korean girl group Momoland and Dominican singer Natti Natasha! I first heard this when Momoland performed it live on Simply K-pop CON TOUR the other week (without Natti though). 

Yummy Yummy Love is an English language song and was released on 14th January.

B Young- You Feel Me

Next up is You Feel Me by British rapper/singer B Young. It's about his journey of where he came from growing up, to where he is now. 

You Feel Me is from B Young's debut album Differences (released last year) and the video premiered on 20th January.

 


 

I also recently featured Living Easy? (another song from Differences) as a Weekly Music Video: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2022/01/weekly-music-video_12.html

 

Christina Aguilera and Ozuna- Santo

Christina Aguilera (one of my favourite singers) just a released a new Spanish EP, La Fuerza ("The Strength" in English). She is part Ecuadorian and brought out the Spanish album Mi Reflejo (My Reflection) in 2000. 

La Fuerza was released on 21st January and will make up part of Christina's upcoming 9th studio album (and 2nd Spanish language album). The first single Pa Mis Muchacha (For My Girls) which features American singer Becky G , Argentinian rapper and singer Nicki Nicole and Argentian singer Nathy Peluso, was released in October, followed by Somas Nada (We Are Nothing) in November.

Santo ("Holy" in English; I originally read the title as Santos and translated it as Saints", lol) is the 3rd single from the EP. It's a duet with Puerto Rican singer Ozuna and came out on 20th January.

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo), ...

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

20th Anniversary of Mariah's The Emancipation of Mimi Album- Part 1

My favourite singer Mariah Carey is celebrating the 20th Anniversary of her 10th studio album The Emancipation of Mimi. It was released back in April 2005. I'd planned to write just one post about the album but it was turning into a really long one, so I've decided to divide it into two parts! Here is Part 1. :) The Emancipation of Mimi (or TEOM for short!) was considered Mariah's "comeback album" at the time, following on from her previous two albums, Glitter (2001) which was accompanied by the film of the same name and Charmbracelet (2002). Neither the Glitter movie or album were very well received and after going through a difficult time in general, Mariah had an emotional and physical breakdown and checked into hospital that summer. She was diagnosed with bipolar II disorder , although didn't feel ready to speak about it pubicly until several years later .  Although Charmbracelet (MC's first release after leaving Virgin Records America and singing w...
