“Right By My Side” takes a step back from the intensity we’ve come to expect from songs like “Starships.”
The new video is stripped down to its bare bones. Void of effects and jarring color schemes, the images seem to let the lyrics do the talking.
“I can’t say no more than this / I just hope your heart hear me now / Gotta let you know how I’m feeling /You own my heart he just renting” the lyrics chime.”
But possibly more interesting is her PDA with fellow artist Nas.

The “No Mercy” rapper has been hospitalized for unclear reasons. Details surrounding the event remain unclear but he was reported admitted on May 16. According to a recent tweet, it looks like 50 will be okay.
“I'm feeling better today I think I'm gonna get out of the hospital soon,” he tweeted today.

In an interview with CNN on Monday, the Brooklyn born rapper and entrepreneur was asked about Obama's support for gay marriage and shocked many by saying, "I've always thought it as something that was still, um, holding the country back. What people do in their own homes is their business and you can choose to love whoever you love. That's their business. It's no different than discriminating against blacks. It's discrimination plain and simple."

After debuting her LP Blown Away at number one on the Billboard 200, Carrie Underwood holds on to the title for the second consecutive week.
On week number two the album sold 120,000 copies. This was enough to conquer Adele’s 21 that sold 101K and Lionel Richie who managed 71K with his tenth studio release, Tuskegee.

The drama is fun, but let’s not forget about the stars that came out of American Idol last year!
Haley Reinhart landed as third runner up on last season of “American Idol” and will drop her debut album “Listen Up” on May 22nd.
Stereotude got an in-depth Q&A with the songstress to talk everything from her album, her budding acting career, and her current American Idol faves!

The “Strip” singer has teamed up for a second time with fellow Grammy winner, David Guetta.
Guetta is a music producer and DJ from Paris. His style has been described as a clash between house music and electoclash.
Their new song “Don’t Wake Me Up” follows suite with their previous hit “I Can Only Imagine.” It has plenty of vigor and deep synth beats that a couple of vodka Red Bulls could surely get you in the mood for.
