Frankmusik's new video for Confusion Girl

FINALLY- the Frankmusik full-length album will be coming out June 22nd and will include songs that came out over a year ago- but at least the production sounds TONS better- as evidenced by the music video for Confusion Girl

The Music Slut also released the dets on the tracklisting for the album titled "Complete Me." Looks like there will be a good mix of previously released tracks and some new ones. He looks darn adorable too- I can't believe he's not gay- although he does love the gays. I saw a feature of him in the newest Out Magazine.

Here's a good remix of Confusion Girl done by Don Diablo!

Frankmusik- Confusion Girl (Don Diablo Loves to Slowdance Remix)

Colin Munroe- the Unsung Hero

I am loving on Colin Munroe so hard right now- the Toronto-based, self-proclaimed "music mutt" fuses some of my favorite genres together into a very, very fresh sound. His new Mixtape "The Unsung Hero" reminds me a lot of Phoenix's 2004 album "Alphabetical", his voice reminds me of a baritone Frankmusik, and his beats are straight hip hop.

Colin Munroe was Hip Hop Official's Artist of the Week back in January- right around when he came out with his mix of Kanye West's Flashing Lights called "I Want Those Flashing Lights." "Nye himself even put the song on his Glow in the Dark Mixtape! Check out the video HHO featured on Colin Munroe.
