Madonna – “Give Me All Your Luvin” (LMFAO MIX) ft Nicki Minaj, LMFAO
LMFAO breathes life into Madonna’s dance floor dead on arrival single. They turn the “Hey Mickey”-esque track into pretty much a track you’d find on their last album–in other words a “party rocking” dance number. It definitely gives the track the MUCH needed boost from its flat original sound. And LMFAO were smart enough to leave Nicki Minaj on the track. The Party Rockers may just save the Material Girl’s troubled new song after all!
Melanie Amaro – “Respect” – X Factor Winner Melanie Amaro’s uptempo version of Aretha Franklin and Otis Redding’s “RESPECT” was heard all over America as a Super Bowl commercial for Pepsi. But not just any commercial, one featuring the Queen (of England) herself, Sir Elton John! This track is a great fun dance version of the original classic. This dusts off the old gay anthem and makes it modern and fun. Definitely expect to hear this on a Gay Pride Parade Float! R-E-S-P-E-C-T!
Havana Brown – “We Run the Night” featuring Pitbull - It is confirmed. Everything Pitbull touches turns to gold. He really knows how to not only make a hit record but also be a feature on a hit record! This RedOne produced track by Australiain DJ Havana Brown is PURE FIRE. It’s an INSTANT dance floor hit. You could drop this during peak nightclubbing hours and the crowd will go crazy. And it’s blowing up the Top 40 Radio Charts. Give it a few weeks and Havana Brown will surely be running the night!
