Icona Pop are the first official winners of our weekly Battle of the Beats song duel! The duo's electrifying electro anthem 'I Love It,' featuring Charli XCX, dominated in last week's song battle versus Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky,' with the gals garnering 62% of the votes. Congrats to Caroline and Aino of Icona Pop, and to the readers who voted!
Justin Bieber can't be stopped! Even with all the drama surrounding his personal life (the speeding, the partying, the paternity suits etc...) the 'All Around the World' singer is letting his music sales do the talking. That's really what it's all about anyways, right?
Lana Del Rey songs made a splash on the pop music scene when the songstress released 'Born to Die' in 2012, but Ms. Rey is incredibly prolific, with lost tracks, demos, soundtrack tunes and special edition songs popping up online with increasing frequency. While much is made about her stunning good looks and her propensity for appearing on magazine covers, she does have a wealth of music to sift through.
New songs on the radio for June are proving to give us the perfect party soundtrack! Miley Cyrus is finally back from her musical hiatus, releasing her wild-child song 'We Can't Stop,' which she insists is definitely not about drugs. Either way, we'll be hearing Miley's newest track a whole bunch on the radio in the next few weeks.
Is there anyone bigger than Daft Punk right now? We certainly don't think so, which is why we put their single 'Get Lucky' at No. 1 on our Top 40 Pop Songs for June 2013. The French duo are riding high on the release of 'Random Access Memories,' which debuted at No.1 on the Billboard 200 album chart, and the momentum behind their lead single does not seem to be going anywhere.
Does Justin Bieber ever get tired? On the heels of a massive overseas touring stint and before he starts the U.S. leg of his lengthy Believe tour, JB has announced a new single, which will undoubtedly bring with it more promotional appearances and touring. Does this kid sleep?!
Selena Gomez is letting Selenators hear another new track from 'Stars Dance.' The song, 'Slow Down,' is actually an uptempo jam, and like 'Come & Get It,' embraces her grown up yet fun loving side.
