No, it’s not a Bee Gees cover… It’s an original club banger by Calvin Harris featuring Disciples. To be honest, this is the first time I’ve ever heard the Disciples, so I don’t know if the singer simply lent her voice to this track or if there’s a producer in the group — or are…

OK, so Wiz Khalifa’s new single “Say So” is only 2:12 seconds long, making it more like an interlude than a proper jam, but it has a nice vibe for chilling out and it sticks in your head like crazy glue on your fingers, so it gets props for those things.

Vanessa Carlton has been a piano pop sort of singer/songwriter for a long time now, but somehow her beautiful new song “Blue Pool” sounds very different from her previous music. Perhaps it’s the production, as the song sounds like it was recorded outside, which gives the vocals a spacious quality. It also sounds as though…

Sweet California is a girl group hailing from Spain. Why they’re called Sweet California, then, I have no idea. And, you know what, they’re kind of everything you should hate about pop music. Which is to say that they’re super, super cheesy, way too bright and shiny, music aimed at tweens, etc. Also, their songs…

To quote the song itself, “Red alert – it’s contagious!” If ever a song summed itself up perfectly, it’s half Dutch, half Indian singer/songwriter Nathassia’s ultra-hot new single, “Contagious,” which we are very excited to be premiering on Love is Pop! It starts off with dark and seductive Massive Attack-esque trip-hop percussion, Nathassia’s vocals sounding…

OK, this is bubblegum pop. The sort you chew on and it loses its flavor fifteen minutes later. But it’s damn catchy, isn’t it? Or maybe you consider your tastes too refined to enjoy a slice of bubblegum? That’s fine. It’s not for everyone. Personally, I prefer chocolate. (Who doesn’t?) But for the next fifteen…

Back in 2012 I came across a song called “Karma Debt” by The Mynabirds and instantly fell in love with it. The sound of Laura Burhenn’s vocals alone was bewitching, equal parts velvety smooth and soulful, but her thought-provoking lyrics about war and debt were what really made my brain light up like a Christmas…

No, it’s not a U2 cover… It’s another gorgeous MIKA original, which means a soaring vocal melody, vibrant beat and super colorful instrumentation all strung together by his always charismatic voice. Let’s face it — he could sing the Sesame Street theme song and we’d listen to it. He’s one of the brightest stars in…

“Warm Blood” is the fifth track to be released from Carley Rae Jepsen’s upcoming album E•MO•TION (out August 21st) and it’s easily the best. Produced and co-written by Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij, it sounds exactly like what you’d expect a collaboration between them to sound like, which, naturally, is sonic bliss.

We like Meek Mill, but he had days to come up with a decent Drake diss track in response to Drake’s two tracks dissing him and this was the best he could come up with? It’s just terrible. A trainwreck. He’s capable of so much better. This just doesn’t flow well. Also, the vocals are…

Way back in 1997 Natalie Imbruglia covered a song called “Torn” by a little known alternative group called Ednaswap and found herself propelled into global superstardom. It was from an album called Left of the Middle, one of the year’s highest selling releases. The record also spawned other hits, such as “Wishing I Was There”…
