 J Balvin and Ed Sheeran dropped last Friday a joint EP of two songs with the  original and unseen title of... The titles of the two songs together ! The EP comes after Sheeran has been flirting with Latin music for a while, as he did in Camila Cabellos' s Bam Bam. This time he has tried to speak Spanish (which remains a little unpolished yet).  The EP's two songs ( Sigue and Forever My love ) are the result of an unexpected friendship between the two artists after meeting in a gym in Manhattan last year- Ed Sheeran told Apple Music-.  The first one, Sigue , is a reggaeton track -produced by Tainy- where Sheeran shows he's really into Balvin's world (similar to Sheeran's featurings in the UK rap scene, Stormzy's Own It for example) with  sexual references, showing off and the same thoughtful rhyme, like when he sings 'Sigue que a mí me gusta todo lo que exhibes' ( Continue because I like what you exhib it) - maybe some people commonly use the verb e

  After being last in the Sanremo Festival this year and not convincing la Stampa with his 'Sesso Occasionale', Tananai has experimented a huge chart-success, having two songs on Italy's Top 10 this week ( Sesso Occasionale at number 9 and BABY GODDAMN at number 6). Tananai, who had previously collaborated with the famous Italian rapper Fedez, presented Sesso Occasionale to the famous festival, a track that continued the alternative dance spirit of his music  and that recalls Village People's Y.

Even after a month after the festival, the songs from the contest hog Italy's top 50 most streamed songs on Spotify.  Just by performing, the contestants will get their songs i

 Last Friday Irama released his new album, which follows up his 2020's EP, Crepe . The project comes after the incredible success of Ovunque Sarai, both commercially (the track is certified platinum in less than a month) and critically (Irama scored the 4th position in the Sanremo Festival this year) . Far from his latest latin sound, in  Ovunque Sarai  Irama looks at himself and his feelings. In particular, Irama portrays the feeling of missing someone relying on nature as the artistic reference point. The result is, in a chain of future tenses, a long poem , showing an almost unprecedented depth, artisitic growth and maturity. Irama's vocals on the track raise the track even more, creating an experience, where feeling is the protagonist.  Now, almost a month after the Festival, we get the album, Il Giorno in cui ho Smesso di Pensare.  The record includes featurings from his frecquent producer, Shablo  (and also writer of Ovunque Sarai),   Rkomi, Sfera Ebbasta, Guè, Mace, Wi
