She’s 17-years-old and I definitely wasn’t an angel at her age and I’m not expecting her to be either but this isn’t sexy – it’s skanky.  With so many women feeling suppressed in their sexuality, I applaud her attempt to feel comfortable with her body but there is a way to do it and this just isn’t working for me.  It comes off trashy to me and even a little awkward.  Could it be that she’s just rebelling against her squeaky clean Disney image?  That’s what happened to Britney Spears….

The best part is that this video is from her Royal Variety performance for the Queen of England.  Classy…  In case you care or don’t know, the song is “Party in the USA” from her Time of Our Lives album.

Miley Cyrus Continues to Channel Strippers

Basically, they are like stickers that you can put onto your mp3 player but they are great because they don’t leave any kind of residue which is what I always worry about when I’m using something like this.

I have got to say that when it first came in the mail, it was so slim that I figured it was going to be some flimsy thing when I took it out of the package but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the skin.  It was sturdier than I expected and it really was super easy to apply – it literally took me less than 15 seconds to have it on my iPod, looking perfect.

Of course, it didn’t affect my ability to use the device in any way and, in fact, the MusicSkin is supposed to help protect mp3 players from scratches.  It’s awesome because my iPod still fits in the armband that I use so the skin doesn’t make it overly bulky.

Here’s a picture of what it looked like on my iPod Nano (4th generation):

Interested but you don’t want to put it on an mp3 player?  No problem!  There are MusicSkins for laptops, cell phones and gaming.  You can also have them custom made so that you can show off your own band or artwork.

For more information, visit the official site at www.music-skins.com or add them on MySpace, Facebook, Twitter or check out their blog.

Customize Your MP3 Player With MusicSkins

That’s saying a lot coming from me since I really lost a lot of respect for him after his assault on his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna, especially since it took so long for it to seem him like he was actually sorry (I’m still not entirely convinced).

Either way, the experiences of this past year are reflected in his music which is a little different than his usual sound.

Here’s the track listing:

1. I Can Transform Ya (feat.Lil Wayne & Swizz Beatz)
2. Sing Like Me
3. Crawl
4. So Cold
5. What I Do (feat. Plies)
6. Famous Girl
7. Take My Time featuring Tank
8. I.Y.A.
9. Pass Out (feat. Eva Simons)
10. Wait (feat. Trey Songz & Game)
11. Lucky Me
12. Fallin Down
13. I’ll Go

Andrea Bocelli’s “My Christmas”

The album cover, as you can see, is classy as usual.  I haven’t been able to listen to the whole thing but the reviews I’ve seen have been mixed.  I just feel like Snoop is losing a bit of his touch but I can’t say for sure until I hear this whole album.

1. "Intro"
2. "I Wanna Rock"
3. "2 Minute Warning" 
4. "1800" (featuring Lil Jon)

Snoop Dogg “Malice in Wonderland”

Most of the music video features him singing with his band live in front of the camera. And if it’s not him singing with his band, it’s ridiculous close ups of him and his muscles. The song isn’t great, but at least he can sing live.

Trey’s album peaked at #3 on the Billboard 200 and is nominated for Best Contemporary R&B Album at the 2010 Grammy Awards.

Trey Songz “One Love” Music Video

Biz Markie had that great song “Just a Friend” where he infamously sang off key about his unfortunate love life but, aside from that and “Nobody Beats the Biz,” I can’t think of any other big singles.  I did like him on “Let Me Clear My Throat” but that’s about it. 

All the same, he released Diabolical: The Biz’s Greatest Hits and I’m sure there are some big fans out there who would enjoy it.  What I like best about Biz is that his rhymes are comical and clever.  The package also includes never before seen photography.

1. Make The Music With Your Mouth Biz
2. Nobody Beats The Biz
3. Biz Is Goin Off
4. Vapors
5. Just A Friend
6. I Hear Music
7. Spring Again
8. What Comes Around Goes Around
9. I’m The Biz Markie
10. Let Me Turn You On

Biz Markie “Diabolical: The Biz’s Greatest Hits”

The lead single, “Who Says” is performing well and really does give a glimpse of how Mayer’s perspective has changed since becoming a popular target of tabloid gossip. 

He’s been labeled a womanizer (evidence would suggest that this could be true) and he seems resentful of it and it shows in his new music.

Here’s the track listing:

1. Heartbreak Warfare
2. All We Ever Do Is Say Goodbye
3. Half of My Heart
4. Who Says
5. Perfectly Lonely
6. Assassin
7. Crossroads
8. War of My Life
9. Edge of Desire
10. Do You Know Me
11. Friends, Lovers or Nothing

John Mayer “Battle Studies”

It’s good because R Kelly is more of a veteran so I think these younger artists will bring a more modern flavor and edge to the songs. 

Here’s the track listing:

1. Crazy Night
2. Exit
3. Echo
4. Bangin’ The Headboard
5. Go Low
6. Whole Lotta Kisses
7. Like I Do
8. Number One
9. I Love The DJ
10. Supaman High
11. Be My #2
12. Text Me
13. Religious
14. Elsewhere
15. Pregnant
