Here is John Legend‘s new song “Tonight (Best You Ever Had)” f/ Ludacris. Available on iTunes 1/31 from the “Think Like A Man” movie soundtrack!

Check out the world premiere for Evanescence‘s “My Heart Is Broken” music video. This Rock ballad is the official second single from Evanescence’s self-titled third studio album. The video was inspired by by a film called ‘Paperhouse.’ The British flick is based around a girl with the fantastical powers of bringing things to life by drawing them, power that she pays a high price for in the end. This is such a great song and video, Amy looks Amazing!!

A true musical legend has left us today. Ms Etta James died from complications from leukemia with her husband, Artis Mills, and her sons by her side, De Leon said. She was diagnosed with leukemia in 2010, and also suffered from dementia and hepatitis C. James died at a hospital in Riverside, California. She would have turned 74 Wednesday.

” This is a tremendous loss for the family, her friends and fans around the world,” De Leon said. “She was a true original who could sing it all – her music defied category.”

My favorite song by her!

We were super excited to finally see Miss Lauriana Mae perform her first headline show at SOB’s last thursday night. We were still unsure of what to expect from the new comer. I always believed that if a new artist can put on a great live performance it will prove if  they’ll be a contender in the game. WOW this recently signee to Atlantic Records, is one of 2012′s artists to watch! Lauriana was dressed in full vintage 1920s flapper gear and her energy was high that night. She has a star performers attitude, and a sexy swag that is truly memorizing.

Miss Mae performed records off her latest EP ‘Love Mae’ to a full house which included “Love,” “Money Mae,” and ” Like A Drum (Beat it).”  Lauriana’s music is in a lane of it’s own. Inspired by the likes of Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and Etta James, singer/songwriter, Mae blends soulful jazz vocals with contemporary pop, R&B and hip-hop all in one.  With her backing band “The Pains,” comprised of a band of friends that stood by her along the way.

Before Lauriana graced the stage. Two other great singers opened the show, R&B brotha Ronny “RO” James raved the crowd with his very own cover of Radiohead‘s “Creep” and finished his set with an original joint titled “Be Better.”  Lance Drummonds was up after and play the piano and performed a few of his original tunes mixed with some classic covers.

YES! YES! YES! Melanie Fiona is giving us music we can relate too. Check out her blues/soul driven joint “Wrong Side Of A Love Song” the guitar strumming from the starts remind me of Al Greens “Lay It Down” I believe her new album will top her first one 100 times over, she is now an established artist! ‘The MF Life‘ is scheduled to drop on May 8.
