(O) Kylie Minogue diagnosed with breast cancer. grade: F-

This totally sucks. She makes such great music, why can't someone stupid & worthless in music like will smith or avril lavinge be afflicted with such tragedy? She is rather young for this as well; she will be turning 37 later this month. anyway, i hope she beats it. (source: BBC news)
time to play a kylie marathon, i recommend: Your Love, Can't Get Blue Monday Out of My Head, Come Into My World (Fischerspooner Remix), Slow (The Chemical Brothers Remix), Chocolate (Album Version), I Believe In You, Whenever You Feel Like It

(V) "Sex is not the Enemy". Garbage. grade: A

This is an awesome video. It looks good and the concept is entertaining, especially the ending when Shirley flashes her breasts at a concert and gets hauled off by the po-po (apparently, this was shot at a real concert where the fans were unaware of the stunt, which caused them to become rather pissed off that Shirley had been arrested). The video can be seen via the garbage website here.

(A) "We Belong Together (Remix)". Mariah Carey feat. Jadakiss & Styles P. grade: B

This new remix by DJ Clue (who produced "Heartbreaker (feat. Jay-Z)" and "Heartbreaker Remix (feat. Missy Elliott & Da Brat)") is now available on iTunes. The song now has a beat you can bounce to, with Mariah singing longer parts of the Babyface/The Deele and Bobby Womack songs she references in the album version. The rap parts are too long, but go well as they alternate with Mariah's verses, which are very similar to the original but sped up, which compliments the new beat well. All in all, a good remix.
UPDATE: the mariah site is offering a FREE d/l of this remix!

(A) "One Word". Kelly Osbourne. grade: C+

OK, I REALLY do not want to like this song, but I can't help it. It has an infectious electro beat, but Kelly's vocals ruin it. It's one of those songs that I don't mind listening to (and sometimes enjoy), but I will be over in a matter of time. Oh yeah, and the video sucks.
