ERYKAH BADU: Window Seat

Last week Friday we got to hear one version of Jump In The Air (Stay There) a collaboration between Erykah Badu and Lil' Wayne which grew on me a lot over the week. Today Erykah tweeted out a link to the first single from New Amerykah Part 2: Return Of The Ankh. This one is called Window Seat and features Questlove on drums and it's classic Erykah Badu, it would not have sounded out of place on the incredible Mama's Gun. I'm loving the official artwork (see below)! (Thanks Erykah-Badu.com) I have had this track on repeat for the last 15 minutes. I seriously can't get enough of it! Keep it coming Erykah! - Camille

Follow Erykah on Twitter! (who knows what else she'll be posting!)

Kelis: 4th Of July, They Say feat. Kid Cudi + Scream + Shout

One of my most hotly anticipated albums of 2010 is Kelis's fifth studio album Flesh Tones due to be released in a few months. This time around she has gone in a much more dance orientated direction... and it seems like she's really pulled it off!

Here are three tracks rumored to included on the forthcoming release. 4th of July, Scream and Shout and They Say featuring Kid Cudi. My favorite of the bunch is Scream and Shout, I can't wait to hear this high quality and LOUD! - Camille

Check this awesome interview Kelis did with Idolator!

PENGUIN PRISON: Animal Animal (Jakwob Remix)

My Goldfrapp post today with the Penguin Prison remix of Rocket reminded me that I should have done a post on Chris Glover aka Penguin Prison already! Besides Goldfrapp he has also done some stellar mixes of Marina & The Diamonds and Ellie Goulding to name but a few.

Penguin Prison is currently working on his full length release but an EP is coming soon from Neon Gold, and the first single from that is Animal, Animal which I'm loving both remixed and in original form! I agree with NME that he sounds a little bit like Miike Snow. Watch this space I think we're gonna see a Penguin Invasion this year! - Camille

FLORENCE & THE MACHINE: Hurricane Drunk (Video Premiere)

Florence spreads her wings and manages not to come off looking like Big Bird in the video for Hurricane Drunk by Florence & the Machine, which premiered just a few days ago. This is one of my favorite tracks from the remarkable debut album Lungs. In other good news Florence & The Machine will be back in the USA in the spring. They play Terminal 5 on April 9th and they are also on the bill for Coachella. So excited to see them again! - Camille
