Tags: B.o.B., Hip Hop, Media, New Music, Pop, Rivers Cuomo, Weezer
B.o.B. released his newest video today, which is for the track “Magic” that’s currently be worked at radio. The tune features Weezer frontman, Rivers Cuomo who as you are about to learn, is not the best dancer in the world… or even, the best hand waiver. Dude looks a little uncomfortable in this video, a feeling we bet a lot of B.o.B.’s earlier fans are sharing right about now. After establishing quite a bit of cred in the hip hop world, we’re not sure Bobby Ray is gonna get any love from the hood with this sugary single.

Chris Martin showed up yesterday to the big Apple conference in San Francisco where the multimedia giant revealed some of their future plans, including their new music based social networking platform, Ping. The singer played a new song which we presume will be on the upcoming Coldplay album. The track is called “Wedding Bells.” Upon introducing it, Martin joked with thetech savy crowd, “This is a new song I’ve been working on. I call it Coldplay 2.6. It has a lot of new features. It features seven different kinds of chords. Even a new one that our closest rivals have no idea about.”
Have a look above at his performance of “Wedding Bells.”

Fans of Rihanna have been wondering for some time when the singer would be going to radio with a new single. And now they have their answer. Just this morning, Rihanna sent the following message to Ryan Seacrest via her Twitter account…
“@RyanSeacrestSoon! In less than 10 dayz ima send u sumn special, and ur gonna play it OVER and OVER, like I’m the only girl in the world!”
We’re pretty sure she could put out 3 minutes worth of fart sounds and it would get played at this point. But regardless, it should be interesting to see what she brings this time around.

Lady Gaga Performs New Song
Tags: Lady Gaga, Media, New Music, Pop
Last night (8/30) in St. Paul, Minnesota, Lady Gaga took time out of her show to perform a brand new song for the crowd. We’re guessing this will be one of the tunes from her upcoming album. The track is called “Living On The Radio,” but we’re unclear if this track will be a piano based ballad as she performs it here, or if it will end up taking a different turn in the studio. Either way, have a look and listen and let us know what you think.
