Prince - New Website Lotusflow3r launched?


Dr. Funkenberry announced it officially, Prince's website was to be launched tonight, more or less around 8pm (L.A. Time). The site has changed, however it looks like there's a new preview instead of the actual site. "Colonized Mind", "Disco Jellyfish", and "Another Boy" are the current three songs playing on Lotusflow3r.

According to Dr. Funkenberry, Prince will first reveal his new website to the press. Press invitees include Steve Appleford of Rolling Stone; Benjamin Trott from Six Apart; Kat Corbett from KROQ; Danny Shea and Katherine Thomson, music and entertainment editors from The Huffington Post; Emily McKay from NME and Edna Gunderson of USA Today. Three select purple ticket winners will also join the party. Read more about it here.

It's a great start to a beautiful site, who knows new developments might come in later today, in any case one thing is for sure - Prince never disappoints.

Solange performed "T.O.N.Y" and "Viva La Vida Loca" from Cold Play, for Pepsi Smash on Yahoo this week. It's nice to see Solange challenge herself with covers of other artists, however it seems that a song like "T.O.N.Y" does fit her better than the cover she made for Cold Play. Watch and judge for yourselves.

A few nights ago, French band M83 performed "Kim and Jessie" from their critically acclaimed 2008 album Saturdays=Youth on Connan O'Brien. At first it seemed like this might be a lame band, however after pre-judging the performance, it turns out that M83 is an amazing band with sound remiscent of the 80s. The 80s had some amazing sounds, thus it's wonderful to find them throughout the songs of M83.

David Cook - First Tour Announced!


David Cook's first tour "The Declaration Tour 2009", has been scheduled in support of his self-titled album.

Here's what David had to say on the upcoming tour:

"I’m more than excited to hop on the road and support this record. This tour represents both a new beginning and a return to form for me," David says. "It’s our first full tour, and we’re all ready to pour whatever blood, sweat, and tears that we can muster into making this show, and every show from here on out, an experience. Part of that experience is bringing back this college tour idea. There’s something inherently nostalgic about playing college shows. So many amazing acts used to do it, so it’s nice to be able to bring that ideal back, in some small way. And besides, touring on a bus beats what we used to do, which was cram five guys into a seven passenger van for one show, 13 hours away…"

Beyonce Knowles - Barack Obama Loves Her

Beyonce knowles Louis vuitton tribute patch work Beyonce and Barack Obama... when inaugural concert, John Legend's video vaults to a whole other level just after the 6:45 mark, when Barack Obamas bump into Beyonce Knowles. The sound is a little muffled, but the transcript goes something like this…

Michelle Obama: "Mr. President, you didn't tell Beyonce about 'Single Ladies'? Your rendition?"

President Barack Obama: [chuckles] "Oh! I'm not like Justin. I didn't put on the outfit. But I didn't want my girls thinking that I couldn't, you know...I got a lil' something."

...then the President Obama does the Sasha Fierce hand-twirl move fr the "Single Ladies" video! (That'd be Step No. 6 in our definitive "Single Ladies" dance tutorial.) Un. Real. It's over quickly, but President's little "if you liked it then you should a put a ring on it" gesture certainly beats all the other "Single Ladies" YouTube tributes out there, wouldn't you say? And how amazing is it that the leader of the free world clearly knows all about Justin Timberlake's "Single Ladies" parody skit from Saturday Night Live?! This is sooooo much cooler than that time last year when Mitt Romney attempted to sing "Who Let the Dogs Out."
