OFFICIAL TRACK LIST OF BAD 25TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL EDITION UNVEILED
Filled with previously re-mastered versions of iconic hits and un-released recordings from the King Of Pop, the BAD25 anniversary deluxe edition CDs and DVD will include the following:
CD one features re-mastered versions of Michael’s biggest hits on the original BAD album, including, “Smooth Criminal,” “Man In The Mirror,” “Bad,” “Another Part of Me,” “The Way You Make Me Feel,” and “Dirty Diana” arranged in the same sequence as they appeared on the original album released 25 years ago. “Leave Me Alone” was added to the album as a bonus track following its initial release and has been included on the disc. CD two offers fans a rare listen to thirteen additional tracks, 6 of which are previously unreleased demo recordings created at Michael’s personal studio built at his then-home on Hayvenhurst Avenue in Encino, California. Also included are all three bonus tracks from the 2001 expanded edition of BAD, the previously un-released French version of Michael performing the classic, “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You,” a high power version of “Speed Demon” remixed by Nero and the brand new remix of “Bad” worked on as an electrifying collaboration between Pitbull and Dutch DJ Afrojack.
Recordings included in this package reflect the songs and spirit of Michael Jackson’s artistry during BAD’s recording sessions and have been selected to show the different stages of how Michael’s songwriting and recording genius took shape. Some tracks are so complete that any other artist but Michael Jackson – who worked tirelessly to make sure his songs reflected his vision – might consider them finished tracks. Others are less complete but offer insight into Michael’s creative process in its various stages. Included is the demo, “Al Capone,” an early incarnation of what ultimately became “Smooth Criminal,” “Don’t Be Messin’ Around,” an example of a more complete demo, and a song initially titled, “Song Groove.” That song later became known as “Abortion Papers” which according to Michael’s own records, he spent considerable time in weighing how best to thoughtfully address something that was, and remains, a very personal and sensitive issue.
A true highlight of the package is CD three and the DVD – the never seen before live concert on DVD and its accompanying music CD of Michael’s legendary July 16, 1988 concert at Wembley Stadium. The concert is not a compilation of performances, but rather one complete show, exactly as Michael performed it for Prince Charles, Princess Diana and the 72,000 fans who were in the audience for that night’s sold out show. This show was one of the seven record-breaking nights played at the venue attended by more than half a million people – three times that many people tried to purchase tickets. The DVD was sourced from Michael Jackson’s personal VHS copy of the performance as shown on the JumboTrons during the concert. This footage was only recently unearthed and is the only known copy of the show to exist. The visuals have now been restored and the audio quality enhanced so that fans can share in the excitement of that famous night in 5.1 surround sound taken from the original multitrack recordings made that night.
In addition to the complete Wembley Show, the DVD will also contain “The Way You Make Me Feel” from Michael’s July 15th performance at Wembley Stadium. This is the only song not performed on July 16th due to the late start of that night’s show. Also included are the thrilling early performances of “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You” and “Bad” from the Yokohama Stadium performance in September of 1987 during the first leg of the BAD World Tour.

Music: Bigfoot and Mister Rae are 'THE BIG RAE' (E.P)
The story of the
Big Rae began weirdly as a couple naked a capella made their way from the
blistering cold of a London winter to the sweltering heat of Lagos in the belly
of an unreliable hard-disk in 2010; an immigrants journey in reverse.
In the hands of
genre-defying producer Bigfoot (of Micworx Music), Mister Rae's (of Str8
Buttah) orphan vocals lost to their humble boom-bap beginnings, were clothed in
haunting strings, melancholy keys and victorious synths and rode out into the
world banging percussion. While the message remained the same the music gave it
new urgency.First, in the form of "Brittany Murphy" released online
in late 2011 and now finally with the EP as a whole.
Expect The Big Rae
to get bigger and better with another EP expected before the year is up and a
full length album in 2013. You are officially welcome to join The Big Rae's
voyage. As every proverbial journey begins, what you are about to listen to now
is that humble first step.

STEIN STEAMS UP THE SUMMER, LAUNCHES NEW WEBSITE & SHOOTS NEW VIDEO
 |
| Stein |
New York, NY (FOX FUSE) - Jamaican dancehall artist Stein steams up the summer with the
launch of his sleek new website, www.steinmusik.com
The official site is Stein's direct link for media,
bookings, radio and DJ drops, and dubplate requests. It also connects his
audience directly with all his social sites. But mainly, the website offers up
his catalog of music, with all songs titled and in one place, for the first
time.
Stein also recently shot the video for his latest single,
"Wheel It Off," produced by Chimney Records on their Money Box
Riddim. The video is directed by Stein's long-time video collaborator, Andre
"Silence" Dixon, and is set against the tantalizing backdrop of Miami
Beach, Florida.
"I've been back in Jamaica recording music day and
night for my debut album, All Or Nothing, due out early next year,"
reveals Stein. "I took a brief break to shoot a video because sometimes
you need the visuals in addition to radio support. So I'm trying to get my
music out there to the fans, in every way I can."
This has proven to be a sizzling summer for Stein. Earlier
this summer, he embarked on a U.S. promo tour in the New York, Boston, and
Connecticut areas, blazing his brand and building his name with the masses. He
also joined hip-hop heads such as Maino on a New York City school tour, to
spread the message of peace to high school students. Stein now plans to extend
his outreach to students in Jamaica and across the Caribbean.
For more information on Stein, visit www.steinmusik.com

Music: Drake and Aaliyah Collaboration "Enough Said" Released
It's been a while since the world
has heard Aaliyah's voice, but now fans can remember
why their ears never got enough of the late songbird's sounds with her latest
posthumous single.
Thanks to Young Money rapper Drake,
the R&B singer's previously unheard of track "Enough Said" has debuted.
It's hard not to feel some goose
bumps rise at the first sound of Aaliyah's soft voice, but quickly, listeners
can find themselves taken by the single and moving their head to the smooth
beat, while hearing Drizzy, who is featured on the track, prepare to drop a
verse.
While this release may come as a
surprise to some (Hi, Timbaland), it was a
project Drake had set to for quite some time.
"I have some great Aaliyah
news coming soon," he told the UK's Tim Westwood while promoting his Club
Paradise Tour overseas last April, "Some special things. Great things man.
Great things for music, period."

crowd with the deft with which he strums the guitar while at the same time
giving a new and proud meaning to the popular everyday bread, and so I wasn’t
surprised when he officially released the single. Now he has released another
wonderful piece ‘The Way You Are’ (a
Darey cover) from his mixtape ‘Piece Of Me’ having previously released ‘Ara’

Rick Ross Crowns Notorious B.I.G. “The Greatest MC Of All Time”
Rick Ross may be a fan of Tupac,
but when it comes to the “greatest rapper” of any time period, he feels that
the Notorious B.I.G. deserves the title.
 |
| Notorious B.I.G |
In an interview with FUSE the
Boss lauded the slain Brooklyn rapper. “I was inspired by Notorious B.I.G. a
lot,” he said. “His demeanor, the way he
carried himself. He was just so laid back, he was just so authentic, not to
mention I felt he was the greatest MC of all time.”
Fresh off the release of his God
Forgives I Don’t album, Ross also explained the hands-on approach that he takes
to his music. “I pick every beat that’s on the album,” Ross added. But when
putting together songs, Ross works with members of his A&R team (like DJ
Khaled) to link him with the proper producers. “If I’m looking for a certain
sound they’ll go in, reach out to the people they believe that could make that
sound the best.”
The rest of the FUSE interview
finds the Miami native breaking down his “Sixteen” collaboration with Andre
3000, which was put together over Skype.
God Fogives I Don’t is expected
to land Ross in the number one spot on the Billboard charts, and is poised to
sell between 200,000 and 220,000 copies.

WRAY DEBUTS BEAUTIFULLY- CRAFTED VIDEO FOR HIS LATEST SINGLE "BE YOUR MAN"
Nigerian R&B artist and musician Wray returns with a brand new single for 2012 titled “Be Your Man” and a befitting music video directed by Quincy J. Isah and Brian Would as its visual compliment.
Laced with Wray’s trademark lush and inviting vocals as well as an excellent live musical milieu made up of a head-bopping blend of live drums, percussions, bass guitar and keyboard arrangements brought together by Teebeeo on production, “Be Your Man” is a brilliant return to form for Wray - the consummate artist and performer who brought us previous singles such as “Naija Salsa” and the 2kriss-featured “Night Shift”.
Shot on location in London, United Kingdom, the music video for Wray’s “Be Your Man” is a well-crafted black and white tableau that captures Wray in his elements not only as a complete live performer as he leads his mammoth 8-piece band in a live rendition of “Be Your Man” but also as a charming leading man as he serenades his leading lady with his beautiful vocals and witty charm.

chances to win with his track "HYFR," featuring Lil Wayne, up for
Best Hip-Hop Video, and "Take Care" nominated for Best Art Direction,
Cinematography and Male Video. In the latter category Drake faces off against
Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend," Frank Ocean's "Swim Good,"
Usher's "Climax" and "Turn Up the Music" from his alleged
bar-brawl adversary Chris Brown.
Ocean's "Swim Good" is also up for Best New
Artist, as is Fun. for their song with Janelle Monae, "We Are Young,"
along with Carly Rae Jepsen for "Call Me Maybe" and British boy-band
sensations the Wanted and One Direction for their hits "Glad You
Came" and "What Makes You Beautiful," respectively.
One Direction are also set to perform this year, as is
Alicia Keys.
"Debuting a new song at the VMAs is definitely
special," Keys said in a statement. "I debuted 'No One' at the VMAs –
it was the first time anyone in the world heard 'No One.' It's the perfect setting.
It's the right energy. It's the right vibe. People are so excited about the
night of music and hearing different styles that it just goes over really
well."
Keeping in touch with the rise of electronic dance music
over the past few years, the 2012 VMAs also includes a new category, Best
Electronic Dance Music Video. Nominees for the first-time award are Duck
Sauce's "Big Bad Wolf," Calvin Harris' "Feel So Close,"
Skrillex's "First of the Year (Equinox)," Martin Solveig's "The
Night Out" and Avicii's "Le7els."
This year's VMAs ceremony airs live on September 6 from the
Staples Center in Los Angeles. Viewers can vote on this year's nominees – full
