Weekly Music Video

Today's music video is Favorite Girl by Canadian singer Chxrry22. Her real name is Lydia, she has Ethiopian heritage and she's from Toronto. Her stage name is pronounced "Cherry22".

Chxrry22 comes from a musical background, with both her parents being in a choir. She started out by singing at local weddings and events, as well posting covers online. Around 2017 she moved to Atlanta, Georgia in the US to advance her career and ended up signing to record label XO Records (which was co-founded by fellow Canadian The Weeknd). She was the label's first female artist.

Chxrry released her debut EP The Other Side in September 2022. Her music is R'n'B and her singles include The Falls, Worlds Away, More and Never Had This. Last October she brought out her 2nd EP Siren.

I came across Chxrry randomly (on Spotify, I think) and look forward to hearing more of her music! :)

Favorite Girl is a sultry R'n'B song. It's from Siren and the EP version features American rapper Offset. This video is a solo performance and was uploaded in December.

Note: I got most of my info from UNIA Magazine but got an antivirus warning when I went on it. Also got it on Outlook though, so not entirely sure what's causing it: https://teenscreate.net/chxrry22 (visit with caution)

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
