Rihanna almost finished recording her new album. After the great success that the Barbados celebrity had with her debut album ‘Music of the Sun’, R&B singer Rihanna has made a new album called ‘A girl like me’ in which she adopts some rock influences.

The R&B star believes that she had become more mature concerning her voice and her lyrics. Rihanna says that ‘A million miles away’, one of the songs from her new album, is the best vocal performance on the album which is set to be release in April this year.

The R&B celebrity Rihanna had success with ‘Music of the Sun’, but will she have the same success with ‘A girl like me’?

The R&B celebrity Beyonce Knowles wants to release her next solo album this summer even though she has a busy movie schedule. Beyonce’s Hollywood career has taken off, and because of it the singer has only six weeks to record the album.
The beautiful Beyonce, who is currently shooting Dreamgirls, considers that she is not facing a problem as she had done it before. The movie, which is based on the Broadway musical about a trio of black female soul singers who cross over to the pop charts in the early 1960’s, could be the film of Beyonce’s movie career, if all goes right. Beyonce first film was the smash hit Austin Powers In Goldmember and now The Pink Panther remake with Steve Martin.

I’m going to try and do an album after the movie. I want to put the album out in the summer, which means I have six weeks to record it after the movie (is completed). But I’ve done that with just about every album, so we’ll see if it happens again.
- said R&B celebrity Beyonce -

Meanwhile, this news of a new album came as a surprise to us as we all thought Beyonce will take an one year break from music field. The singer’s album will be her second as Beyonce had already released an R&B album - named Dangerously In Love - when she was still a Destiny’s Child member. I wonder if Beyonce upcoming album will have at least the same success or even greater then the first solo album.
In present Beyonce’s “Check On It” featuring Slim Thug reach up its fourth week on top of Billboard Hot 100 and Pop 100 singles charts Thursday, the single is part of the ‘Pink Panther’s soundtrack.

Nickelback has come back in music with a new video for “Savin’ me” single. After the great success that the rock band had with “Photograph”, Nickelback decided to return in 2006 with a new hit-hitting called “Savin’ Me” in which the rock celebrities describes, through some suggestive comparisons, the feeling of loneliness and sadness and the need for someone to save him (the boy from the song’s story) from falling. Nickleback’s emotional ballad has a great video, a great guitar and great comments.
