If this guy doesn’t blow up this year, I’ll eat my favourite pair of sneakers. Most of ya’ll should know him by now thanks to the songs with Bobby Ray and Travie McCoy. This Hawaiian-born singer is an exceptionally talented vocalist whose voice reminds me a little of Robin Thické but a younger, more ‘edgier’ vibe to it. He released a 4 song EP a few months back and this is the first video off it, track features B.o.B. and Cee-Lo. Peep it after the cut.

Easily one of my favourite songs of the year, B.o.B.’s 3rd single off his debut album that features Paramore singer, Hayley Williams. I’m surprised after her recent twitpic topless scandal, she actually twitpic’d a topless photo of herself instead of direct messaging it to her boyfriend. #epicfail. They actually filmed their scenes separately; I quote here: “Though Paramore frontwoman and the Atlanta rapper shot their scenes separately, their isolation just adds to the cloud of loneliness that looms over “Airplanes.” -Billboard.

I’m late again but I kinda got lazy with the thought of having to post 20+ songs this week. I wasn’t sure what song to chose to headline this post this week but I’ve decided to give it to B.o.B.’s Airplane part 2 which features none other than Marshall Mathers. The track is not as soft as the first version, both rappers go hard on it and Hayley Williams kills the hook as usual. Plenty more after the cut.

I couldn’t hold out any longer and I thought I’d give ya’ll a preview of what’s cooking in this week’s eargasms. I underrated B.o.B. for a while, his first single ‘Nothin’ On You‘ and the track with Giggs changed my opinion on him. This second single is dope, it features Hayley Williams of Paramore. In my teen years I was a big fan of Paramore and that type of music, she’s the only ginger I find attractive! Part 2 of this track featuring Eminem should be dropping real soon, hold tight. Stream and download link after the cut.

I held back the post a fair bit again, mainly due to the fact that there wasn’t many songs out when I started to write this on Sunday. Back to business, this first track is off the hook. It’s been played over 40 times since I downloaded it last Friday, this is real music: no electro synthesized beats, no autotune. Miguel has an indescribably good voice and smooth drum beat with 2 dope verses from J. Cole. Plenty more after the cut.

I was going to save this video for this week’s eargasms post but the video turned out to be really creative itself. The song has been one of my favourites of 2010 so far, a real infectious hook with a good beat. It reminds me of the hopenhagen advert; similar effect with the torn photos overlapping each other. Definitely a dope video and it does the song justice. Check out the video after the cut.

Ok so another busy week for me with university work, mayn don’t you just hate end of semester time? All these damn assignments and irrelevant presentations mixed with all the powerpoint lectures. Anyway I’ve got some big tunes from unknowns to platinum selling artists.

I’ll start off with B.O.B. aka Bobby Ray‘s first single, Nothing On You. The song features Bruno Mars who kills the hook, so infectious and catchy. This song will be in the Top 10, I guarantee it. Pop the hood for the tune and the rest.
