The Death & Rebirth of Flop Of The Pops

Roughly a year ago I joined the Flop Of The Pops blog as one of several occassional bloggers. At that time FOTP was an MP3 and leaks blog, mainly intended to promote the forum of the same name. A hack deleted the forum, social network pages and almost deleted the blog, which thankfully I was able to recuperate. Shortly thereafter everyone went their separate ways and I was left with the blog whilst others carried on with the forum or set up their own new blogs.

Focusing primarily on featuring great new music of all genres, the blog grew rapidly, attracting an ever-increasing number of visitors from outside the USA and UK (the main audience) and even giving me the opportunity to premiere exclusive tracks and interview some of my favourite artists. During this year I was able to cultivate great relationships with artists, managements, labels, publicists, other bloggers and many, many crazed music fans, who have all in their own way contributed to the blog's development and success. I had a real steep learning curve and am forever indebted to all the tips, hints, criticisms and encouragements received along the way.

As the new year rolled around and the blog's numbers continued to go up, I decided it was time to take things to the next level. As convenient as Blogger was to start out with, it no longer provides the flexibility needed to provide readers with the very best content, both videos and news. The Flop Of The Pops name itself also posed some problems, being now used not only by the music forum, but by their own MP3/leaks blog and a multitude of twitter accounts promoting said forum. On the one hand, tweets intended for me would be sent their way, whilst on the other, managers etc were likely to confuse my blog with the other of the same name leaking their artists' music. The domain name was already taken and it was easy to see how Google search results would prove plain tiresome and confusing to the casual reader.

I decided therefore to move to a new, self-hosted website, which I could edit and develop and make as dynamic as necessary. With the new look, new interface, a new domain name, new branding, new everything. A few tweaks are still necessary here and there but the new site is finally live! 

Without further ado, I invite you all to join me over at www.Josh-TV.com for all the latest music news, music videos, remixes, premieres, interviews and much much more!

NEW MUSIC: Iggy Azalea feat. T.I. - Murda Bizness

 

New Grand Hustle signee Iggy Azalea premiered today her debut official single, "Murda Bizness", featuring label boss T.I. The release and record deal come hot on the heels of the viral success of her YouTube clip for "Pu$$y", which among various other quirks featured a brilliant intro courtesy of Grace Jones, from a legendary scene of hers opposite Eddie Murphy in the movie "Boomerang". 

 

Anyways, you can check out the Bei Maejor (him from that Ciara remix a while back) produced cut below. Fingers crossed the music video (which is still in development) will be every bit as excellent as the teaser clip we were given.

FULL SONG: Justin Bieber - Boyfriend

It's FINALLY here! Stream the full length new single "Boyfriend" by Justin Bieber below. The track is a definite winner and - if his Belieber stan reactions on Twitter are anything to go by - will be debuting high on the charts within the next week. 

According to  Rap-Up.com, Justin's forthcoming LP is set to include collaborations with Pharrell, Drake, Timbaland, Danja, Hit-Boy, will.i.am and Diplo (among others). Frequent collaborator and controversial BFF Chris Brown is also rumoured so let's keep our fingers crossed on that one.

Listen to what is basically Conor Maynard's "Can't Say No" done right below:

NEW SNIPPET: Justin Bieber - Boyfriend

 

Co-written by Mike Posner, the fever's back in the guise of Justin Bieber's hot new single "Boyfriend". They're working hard on making him the new Justin Timberlake and from the sound of this new snippet they're doing pretty damn well.

The cut is out in full in two days time and serves as the lead single from his upcoming album.

MUSIC VIDEO: Lionel Richie feat. Shania Twain - Endless Love

 

Legendary R&B crooner, Oscar and Golden Globe winner Lionel Richie teams up with equally legendary country diva Shania Twain for a reworking of his classic hit "Endless Love". The collaboration marks Shania's return to the world of Pop after a seven year absence and is the first single from Lionel's new album "Tuskegee", named after his Alabama hometown.

The collaborative project counts also features from the likes of Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Jennifer Nettles, Tim McGraw, Kenny Rogers, Willie Nelson, and Pixie Lott. 

Recorded in the Bahamas, check out the music video below: 

MUSIC VIDEO: Katy Perry - Part Of Me

 

Ever-frequent chart topper Katy Perry has released the music video for "Part Of Me", her latest US Billboard Hot 100 smash and lead single from her Teenage Dream re-release.

I'm really not quite sure what to make of this clip. On the one hand it's an interesting concept and aesthetically involving - certainly far better than another generic "in the club drinkin' with tha homies" video, right? On the other hand, nothing much happens other than a lot of military training, which makes absolutely no sense together with the song itself.

WATCH: Tulisa Speaks on Sex Tape with MC Ultra

 

X-Factor UK judge and former N-Dubz lead singer Tulisa Contostavlos speaks on the recent leak of her sex tape ("intimate moment") alongside former boyfriend Justin Edwards, otherwise MC Ultra (and NOT her other ex Fazer, as claimed by her cousin Dappy in rather disturbing tweets about recognising his dick & fucking lots of bitches together). 

As unpleasant as the whole episode is, you've gotta love how articulate and eloquent Tulisa's comeback is. Check it out below:

MUSIC VIDEO: One Direction - One Thing (Acoustic)

 

Just as they make history with their debut album "Up All Night" - the first album by a British group to top the US Billboard Top 200 chart (displacing Adele with sales of 176,000) - the One Direction have released a new video. The visual is for the acoustic version of their hit "One Thing" and can be seen below.

With such phenomenal success, the 1D boys are already being hailed with bringing back the boyband (or "Pop vocal group") in the US. Whilst the jury's still out on that one, two or three more hit singles could easily propell their record to Gold, maybe even Platinum, certification. 

NEW MUSIC: Machine Gun Kelly feat. Cassie - Warning Shot

 

Just as her comeback single "King Of Hearts" starts to build on US radio, Bad Boy's first lady Cassie appears on Machine Gun Kelly's new cut "Warning Shot". The track is lifted from his latest mixtape "Half-Naked & Almost Famous".

As glad as I am for Cassie to be getting some extra promo, she doesn't particularly DO anything here. Her contribution could very easily be recorded by anyone else - it sounds a bit like she recorded it over the phone or something. Still, it's a good track overall, so hopefully it'll get a proper push and a video etc and do something for them both on urban radio. 

LIVE: Katy Perry - Niggas In Paris (BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge)

 

Earlier today Katy Perry stopped by BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge and performed a rousing rendition of Kanyé West and Jay-Z ("The Throne") runaway hit "Niggas In Paris". 

As surprising as it may sound, she actually killed it. Female rap game = shut down. I must not be watching the same video as those people saying she was trash, weak, embarassing, lame, etc. Indeed, if it wasn't for her long string of chart-topping Pop hits, I swear she'd already be ranking right alongside Iggy Azalea and Kreayshawn in all the "to watch out for", "freshmen", "best new female rappers" (etc etc) lists.

Enjoy:

MUSIC VIDEO: Marina And The Diamonds - Primadonna (Acoustic)

 

Hot on the heels of the song and music video's premiere, Marina And The Diamonds has served up a separate visual to accompany the acoustic version of her latest release, "Primadonna". Needless to say, she  [as always] looks and sounds fantastic.

NEW MUSIC: Archeo - Glass Half Empty
