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?

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 ...

Weekly Music Video

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...

K-pop Comebacks- BTS

Sorry the 2nd post is later again this week, I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :) Last month I started a mini series called K-pop Comebacks, featuring the comebacks of K-pop groups during 2026. The first one was about BLACKPINK and you can see it here:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2026/03/k-pop-comebacks-blackpink.html Today I'm focusing on BTS (one of the most popular Korean boybands ). They debuted in 2013 and are a 7-member group, made up of leader RM, formerly known as Rap Monster (real name Kim Nam Joon), SUGA (Min Yoon Gi), Jin (full name Kim Seok Jin), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji Min), V (Kim Tae Hyung) and Jungkook (Jeon Jung Kook). * Since then, the boys have been very successful, not only in South Korea but internationally. They are probably one of the most well-known K-pop bands worldwide.  In June 2022, the group took a break while the members served their  mandatory military service in Korea and have also been concentrat...
