Far East Movement – Jello ft Rye Rye Video and release

Los Angeles based, American electro hop and hip-hop quartet Far East Movement, who scored a massive hit last year alongside Dev (remember ”Like A G6”? ), are bombarding the charts with collaborations. While we’re waiting for the collaboration with Justin Bieber here in the UK (29 April), the quartet have teamed up with upcoming female rapper Rye Rye.

‘Jello’, the latest single is very much going back to where it all began last year for the group. It’s very much an extension of their first global hit single  ‘Like A G6′ , minus the vocals of Dev. The vocals, provided by Rye Rye, remind us of a younger Nicki Minaj.

Probably needs a listen or two before you really start to like it  but considering their first single was so immense, there’s no doubt this will do fairly well too. And if not there’s always the Beeb’s collab to have another go at, later this month.

‘Jello’ is now available through iTunes and will also feature on the band’s 4th album ”Dirty Bass” which is due for release later this year.

Enjoy the video!

Far East Movement ft Justin Bieber – Live My Life

Justin Bieber turned 18 the other week. Wooo! And what a better way to celebrate then teaming up with Far East Movement and let the world know that from now on he will live his life the way he want.

But… We feel slightly underwhelmed by what ‘Live My Life’ has turned out to be. We’re all for changing musical direction and enjoy our dancey club tracks but there is a reason why many dj’s choose to go for female vocalists instead of male. ‘Live My Life’ is the perfect example why simply because, Bieber’s voice doesn’t blend with this song in a particular good way. While singers as Usher and Ne-Yo have the right tone colour suitable for dance tracks, Justin’s sounds very flimsy and too autotuned. So Sorry Justin! And what’s with the ‘On the Foor’ sample during the verses? They are so 2011!

An official release date for ‘Live My Life’ has not been given yet for UK iTunes.We’ll keep you posted.
