Weekly Music Video

This week's video is 3D by Korean singer Jung Kook (also written as Jungkook) and featuring American rapper Jack Harlow. Jung Kook's full name is Jeon Jung Kook (his surname/family name is Jeon) and he is a member of famous K-pop boy band BTS.

After previously having recorded several solo songs for BTS albums and collaborating with American singer Charlie Puth on the single Left and Right and the FIFA World Cup with the song Dreamers in 2022, Jung Kook launched his official solo career this year. He released his debut single Seven featuring American rapper Latto in July, the first single off his then upcoming debut album.

Jung Kook brought out 3D in September. He also teamed up with Australian singer The Kid LAROI and British rapper Central Cee for the recent single Too Much. Jung Kook's debut solo album GOLDEN was released on 3rd November, along with the new single Standing Next to You. GOLDEN's songs are all English language since it's for the overseas market. The album's title refers to the golden moments of his solo career and also his nickname of the Golden Maknae, "Maknae" referring to Jung Kook being the youngest member of BTS.

3D is a pop/R'n'B song about having feelings for a person who is unattainable. It was the second single from GOLDEN and came out on 29th September, debuting at No. 5 in the UK Singles Chart. This makes Jung Kook the first Korean solo artist to have two Top 5 singles in the UK. In addition to rapping on the track, Jack Harlow co-wrote it.

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), ...
