It’s a mere eleven days since Winehouse left her enforced spell in rehab to perform via satellite at the Grammy Awards, […]

Rihanna To Release Klaxons Collaboration?

At last week’s Brit Awards, one of the many highlights was the collaboration between Rihanna and Klaxons.
The two artists, whose styles vary wildly, made a mashup of Umbrella and Golden Skans work as if the songs had been written in unison, and were always meant to go together.
Now, Rihanna has expressed an interest in […]

Brit Awards 2008 - Part 1 - Mika, Take That, Rihanna & Klaxons, Adele, Mika Again!

Beth Ditto arrives on stage, and the two of them embark on a duet combining Love […]
