10.5.12 - New Music - Tulisa
Tulisa is really making this solo effort happen a lot more than I thought she could.
The British singer was a member of hip-hop/dance group N-Dubz, but recently they were having troubles and split (perhaps for a short time, perhaps for good – it isn’t certain yet). Since then, Ms. Contostalvos (that’s why she just goes by one name) has embarked out on her own, releasing a few singles in preparation for her debut solo album ‘Tulisa’ (clever title) next month. Her first single <a href="http://popbangboom.blogspot.com/2012/05/random-assortment-of-songs.html">“Young”</a> debuted at number one, showing that the UK listeners still love her. Second single “Live It Up (ft. Tyga)” peaked at number 11, which isn’t too bad either. Tulisa – “Live It Up (ft. Tyga)” <center><object width="400" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kVPjldfJ9rM?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kVPjldfJ9rM?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0" width="400" height="350" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></center> Considering that this song sucks and I hate it, I would be rather proud of a number 11 placing by her. The song keeps her hip-hop flavor, but is so bland and boring that I basically fell asleep. Not only are the lyrics trite and so overdone, but the beat is utterly plain. I mean, this shit isn’t supposed to make me dance, is it? “Live It Up (ft. Tyga)” is not available in the US (thank youuu). |
