New Video: Fuck Apologies" (JoJo)


Earlier today, JoJo released her new single "Fuck Apologies" with the assistance of Wiz Khalifa. While it's been a little while since we've heard from the vocal phenom, "Fuck Apologies" is the first single lifted from JoJo's highly anticipated third studio album, Mad Love, which is slated for release on October 14 via Atlantic Records.

Mad Love marks JoJo's return to music of sorts following a ten year hiatus since she released 2006's The High Road.  It will be JoJo’s first time releasing an album in ten years.

With that said, "Fuck Apologies" is a more mature record for the new 25 year old singer/songwriter and I am sure her fans who've been waiting patiently for over a decade for new music will be pleased with the single's release as well as her upcoming album release.

Watch and listen to JoJo's new single "Fuck Apologies" below and Enjoy!

Mashup: "Into You In A Million" (Ariana Grande & Aaliyah)


I don't know who came up with this brilliant mashup of Ariana Grande and Aaliyah but I really hope Ariana hears it and gives us a live remix of sorts with her current single "Into You" with Aaliyah's "One In A Million" beat.

With that said, this brilliant mashup "Into You In A Million" features both vocals from Aaliyah and Ariana Grande over Timbaland's brilliant production from "One In A Million". Take a listen below and cop the free download while supplies last!
