Listen to Michael Buble's Crazy Love!


He sold more 22 million albums, won a Grammy award and he is now back with a new album titled Crazy Love.

The album contains a mix of original tracks and covers of classics, Michael BublĂ© describes the album as the “ultimate record about the inevitable roller coaster ride of relationships”.

"I started this record knowing I was going to record it differently than my previous ones," he said.

" I dug way deeper and was more introspective on this one. Basically, I sang the truth - made each song autobiographical - and you can definitely hear the difference.

"I went back to the way my idols made their records. I wanted an organic feel - so people could feel like they were in the studio with me. The musicians and I all sat in the room, recorded it right from the floor and we let the sounds all come together and bleed into one another. It's not contrived. Not too perfect. It just feels really good."

Crazy Love will be officially released on October 19.

New Jennifer Lopez Song - "Fresh Out The Oven"


Jennifer Lopez has just released a new track titled "Fresh Out of the Oven". Having rapper Pitbull on the hook, the track is produced by The Neptunes and contains up-tempo jams which allow people to dance.

When the track came out, rumor suggested it would be included in Jennifer's upcoming studio album tentatively titled "Love". There was also speculation that she would launch her alter ego, Lola. However, both reports were turned down by her camp.

"This is a hot club record that the label loved and Jennifer thought was fun," Amanda Ghost, president of Epic Records explained to People. "Jennifer and Pitbull got together and the record leaked. Lola is a fun character just for this song." A source close to the singer emphasized, "Lola is just for this song, it's not her ongoing persona. It's something fun. She hasn't become Sasha Fierce [Beyonce Knowles' artistic alter ego]. There won't be anything to do with Lola on her 'Love?' album."

What do you think, is Jennifer Lopez trying to copy Beyonce? Sasha Fierce worked so well for her, maybe Jennifer thinks she can do a great comeback with a new name.
