… but it’s so brilliant. New single from Justin Michael featuring Bruno Mars.

That’s set me off on memory lane actually – I first blogged about Bruno back in April 2010… Couldn’t even find a decent picture of him back then.

Time flies.

New Music: Ianna Harvey

I get so excited when I hear new UK talent like this. I really don’t see this former backing singer for Omar and Rhian Benson not making it into the mainstream! She’s been building a name for herself over the past year covering popular songs by the likes of Lil’ Wayne and Wretch 32, and by releasing two singles, ‘Heartbreaker’ and ‘Save You’. Now she’s released mixtape with a cover of Labrinth‘s ‘Last Time’ as well as six new tracks tracks of her own. Check out here.
