Weekly Music Video

This week's video is Call Me by Rangga Jones. His first name is pronounced "Rang-guh" and he is an Indonesian born, Singapore based multi-instrumentalist, singer/songwriter and producer, whose self-produced music is pop and R'n'B style.

In 2019 Rangga released the single Beautiful Mistake, which is considered his breakout song. He went on to release his debut EP A Little Bit Patient in December 2021. His other singles include Other Half, Favourite Things, confidence in me, Make Me Wanna, Waste Your Time, YOU with Singaporean rapper TENGY and not good enough.

Rangga has just brought out his debut album Emotions (released on 8th December). The lead single from the album is not good enough (written in lower case).

I randomly came across his music on Spotify recently. This is Call Me, which came out in March 2022. I like the chilled, reflective vibe of the song and the raindrops on the video screen are relaxing! This is the official lyric video.

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
