Feel free to do a little shimmy if you feel it’s appropriate … Enjoy!
Jessie J, Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande – “Bang Bang”
It’s possible you haven’t heard of British pop songstress Jessie J before, but unless you’ve been living underneath a rock (or Nicki Minaj’s bootie,) you must have heard about the fuss that’s been made over the video for her track “Anaconda”. Never one to let good publicity go to waste, she’s followed up at lightening fast speed by rapping on this track by Jessie J and the lovely Ariana Grande. The video, shot in LA, features soaring vocals, bold clothes and a lot of dutty winding by some feisty dancers. Check it out here:
Bastille – “Flaws”
Brit band Bastille are out with a follow up single after the monster hit that they had earlier this year with “Pompeii”. In this video, the lead singer Dan wakes up from a hairy situation and proceeds to take us on a waltz along the boardwalk with some interesting counterparts whilst accompanied by some trill indie pop. Check out the video here:
Grimes featuring Blood Diamonds – “Go”
Canadian born Grimes is really pushing the envelope with this song; she’s blending trip hop and electro vibes whilst treating us to a seriously eerie visual journey all the way from the desert to the dance floor, along with her cohort Blood Diamonds. The style is futuristic and the whole experience is memorable, to say the least. Check out the full video here:
