[Hot Video Alert] Justin Bieber - Boyfriend


Justin Bieber Boyfriend

I feel a FEVER comin' on...specifically a BIEBER fever.  To the delight of screaming little girls all over the world, Justin Bieber premiered the video for new single "Boyfriend" on MTV and VEVO at 7:50 PM this evening.  I'm embarrassed and a little bit ashamed to admit that "Boyfriend" marks the very first Justin Bieber post here on Music Is My King Size Bed.  So go easy on me!

Ones to Watch in 2012: Pepper

Pepper

Pepper Official Logo


Pepper is someone I've been hearing about for a few months now, however it wasn't until recently that I decided to give her a proper listen and BOY have I (and you) been missing out. This girl's a vocal powerhouse.  While she has yet to release a single, we shouldn't have to wait too much longer.  Per Pepper herself via her official Twitter, "First single out soon, album to follow later in the year."  In the meantime, Pepper's been releasing a series of acoustic tracks to keep us occupied and impressed, all of which you can hear below, starting with her latest punchy pop masterpiece, "Higher" (BELOW).

Hot Video Alert: Usher - Climax

Usher Climax

"Climax" is the "genre-defying" lead single off of R&B singer/songwriter Usher's forthcoming seventh studio album, Looking For Myself, due out on RCA Records June 12th.  The banger was written by Usher along with co-writers Redd Stylez, Ariel Rechtshaid and Diplo, who also serve as producers on the track.  There's nothing I don't love about this song. Dark, gritty electro beats coupled with that trademark falsetto - this is truly Usher at his very best.

Usher Climax Video Still

As if the song wasn't hot and sweaty enough, wait until you see the "Climax" video, which premiered on VEVO March 9th as part of the music video site's platform revamp.  Directed by Sam Pilling and shot in Atlanta, the hazy camera effects complement Diplo's stunning production work exceptionally.  Pitchfork nails exactly what I love about Diplo's work here, praising the producer/songwriter for showing "uncharacteristic subtlety behind Usher's sentiment, with a beat that seems to hang suspended in midair." Bang on!  The Los Angeles Times also gets the overall feel of the song, describing "Climax" as "rooted in pure soul, with Diplo employing sexy synths behind a dripping downbeat." The video's choppy cinematography might normally have given me a headache, but it just works here.  I couldn't have conceptualized a better video.  The only downside is Usher's scruffy, unkempt appearance, but what are you gonna do?  Usher at his most down-trodden looks better than most guys at their best.
