KANYE WEST “All Of The Lights” (ft. Rihanna, Kid Cudi, The Dream, Alicia Keys, La Roux, Elton John) OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

Kanye West

Alright, there’s finally a music video Kanye West’s “All Of The Lights” from My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. And of course it’s the kind of theatrical music video that we would expect from him. There’s an insane amount of neon lights and fonts pressing themselves on your eyes while a scantily dressed Rihanna sparks the chorus throughout the song. Kanye West hits his verses hard just like the beats and horns of the song. On top of that the song is extended and adds every imaginable guest you can think of. Well, maybe not Michael Jackson. But with major contributions from Rihanna and Kid Cudi and joined by The Dream, Alicia Keys, La Roux, Fergie, Alvin Fields, Elton John, Ryan Leslie and Tony Williams it’s one gigantic anthem. And at times it actually reminds me of the Rocky theme “Gonna Fly Now.”

THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS S.O.S. (Rihanna Cover) MP3

THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS

The UK rock n’ roll heart-throbs were on the on Jo Whiley, BBC Radio 1 not too long ago to perform some tracks from their debut full-length The Age of The Understatement.  With these special performances and recordings some artists may treat their listeners to a treat.  And a treat did we receive.

The duo performed a cover of Rihanna’s hit “S.O.S.”  Still in their early 20s,  they both know “what’s up.”

Cover songs are truly great when the band is able to transform the original into something that sounds just like their own.
