Weekly Music Video

Today's video is Like California, the new single by Singaporean singer Gen Neo and featuring Korean singer DeVita. It is Gen's first collaboration with a female R'n'B artist under the Korean hip hop and R'n'B entertainment company/record label AOMG.

Gen started his career in South Korea and has released music mainly in Korean and Chinese (Mandopop aka Mandarin language pop). He is now moving into the English music scene, having previously released 3 all-English singles- Blame it On Me, RELAPSE and In The Morning in the past months.

DeVita's releases include her EPs Crème (2020) and American Gothic (2022), and the 2022 singles Eat Your Heart Out, Buddy Kane! and BTBT, her collab with Korean rapper and singer B.I (formerly the leader of boy band iKON), American rapper Soulja Boy.

Like California is a contemporary R'n'B dance track. In the YouTube description box, Gen says that he wants listeners to "be able to feel the wind rushing by as one drives down the highway at sunset". The video premiered on 10th January. It features the lyrics on the screen, which is cool. :)

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 D

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),
