NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : alexandra burke - elephant (?)

UPDATE : indeed this is a fan-made...peep the slick official cover here!

hoping this isn't the official artwork...i wanted something which has a lot more oomph to suit the song (which i'm thinking is my top song of 2012 so far...)!

NEW REMIX SINGLE ARTWORK : lady gaga - bloody mary (clinton sparks remix)

THE WEEK'S MOST POPULAR! - 15th/21st january

1. (-) taio cruz - troublemaker

2. (-) one direction - up all night (limited yearbook edition)

3. (-) jessie j - who you are (japan edition)

4. (new entry) flo rida - wild ones (ft. sia)

NEW REMIX EP ARTWORK : anjulie - brand new bitch (the remixes)

liking this more then the original single cover!

...anddd not long ago anj posted on twitter that she's sorting out her album's artwork :D!

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : rebecca ferguson - too good to lose

loving the images used on bex's covers...but that type is so dull and cliche :/ it lets the artwork down so much.

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : stooshe - love me (ft. travie mccoy)

UPDATE : artwork was updated (karis' image was changed a lil'), check it out here!

my new favourite girl group are back re-releasing the once smuttily titled 'fuck me'...as the more radio friendly 'love me' (featuring rent-a-rapper travis "travie" mccoy). the artwork is giving me some pure, 90s age, spice girl realness. i know everyone is saying these girls are bringing back the fab-five's style of attitude etc. etc., but you can really see it in this comic panel style layout: the personalities, the fashion, the fact that these laydees are certified saviours of pop music...love me some stooshe!

NEW LOGO ARTWORK : will.i.am

the main thing i like about will.i.am's latest artwork releases is the new "power" logo he's incorporating into his work, it's original and striking :D

NEW REMIX SINGLE ARTWORK : will.i.am - go home (ft. mick jagger & wolfgang gartner)

this is a kind of remix single...more of a re-working of 't.h.e. (the hardest ever)' (did we need another version?). i'm liking the artwork for will's latest solo efforts...i just think they'd hit harder (pun intended) if they didn't sit so closely to the design of b.e.p's last two albums, it kind of dulls the effect of them.

NEW REMIX SINGLE ARTWORK : teairra mari - u did that (remix) (ft. 2chainz)

there sin't an artwork for the official version of the song...but hey, why not chuck together one for the remix :)...another blah cover though (a la minaj's latest era). gurrrrl, step that artwork game urrrp!

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : nicki minaj - va. va. voom

UPDATE : So the official artwork has now been released (it's still boring as hell...), check it out here.

saw this cover a while back...and held back posting as i was hoping that it would be shown to be a cruddy fan made...NOPE it's the cruddy official artwork :/ not cool! NIX STEP UP THE 'ROMAN RELOADED' ERA ARTWORK! if the album cover lets me down...i may not buy the album.

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : dappy - rockstar (ft. brian may)

NEWS : tinchy wants help with a logo...

not long ago tinchy tweeted that he needed a new logo for his up coming EP with the grime rap unit ruff sqwad. think you could be the designer to help him out?

NEW LIMITED EDITION ARTWORK : florence + the machine - shake it out & no light no light (white vinyl edition)

flo flo has teamed up with karl lagerfeld (creative director of fashion giant "chanel") to create two limited edition printings of her singles 'shake it out' and 'no light no light'. the official statement reads: "each cover has been screen printed, silver foiled and hand numbered on pristine white card and features a unique series of photographic portraits personally taken by the fashion legend, which will remain exclusive to these releases.  each sleeve houses a heavyweight 180-gram 12" white vinyl contained in a black inner bag". both are limited to 500 copies each, excited?

and here is a video showcasing the manufacturing process of the vinyl....BEAUTIFUL!!!

! updated ! NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : florence + the machine - no light no light

originally posted this as the official cover...it isn't...this is:

NEW REMIX SINGLE ARTWORK : katy perry - the one that got away (acoustic)

i think kates is trying EVEN harder to get this to number one in the US...artwork is pretty solid and a helluva lot better then the b.o.b. remix single artwork, y'all know know my thoughts on that one...

DISCOVERED : azealia banks - needsumluv & 212 (ft. lazy jay)

the latest filthy mouthed femcee to appear in the game is azealia banks. the new york native has been appearing on a lot of "next big thing" lists for 2012 and she is set to give minaj a run for her dollars! 'needsumluv' is her latest release (set to appear on producer machinedrum's EP 'SXLND'...loving all these abbreviated/M.I.A. style titles!)

also check out her earlier single '212'...insanely addictive and deffo not to be sung around your grandmother...

PREVIEW : kylie minogue - aphrodite (goddess edition)

UPDATE : check out my full post with HQ photos here!

full cover-to-cover post coming soon...

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : one direction - one thing

worried about uploading this...another one direction artwork to take over the "week's most popular!" haha...loving how the covers all fit into the same design, reminds me of the good old days of 90s pop (see: s club 7)!

NEW EP ARTWORK : skylar grey - the buried sessions

a special release featuring stripped down versions of her most popular songs, really interesting cover artwork...is that a whale?? whadda you think?

THE WEEK'S MOST POPULAR! - 8th/14th january

1. (new entry) taio cruz - troublemaker

WE FINALLY HAVE A NEW ENTRY IN AT NUMBER ONE! 1d's reign has finally let up and taio has snook in with the lead single from his latest album. i've said it before, i'm really liking the new direction of his covers for his third album's artwork. well done ty.o!

2. (down one) one direction - up all night (limited yearbook edition)

well... their number one reign is over, but they still have two entries in the "most popular" this week, so i'm sure it won't keep them up at night.

3. (up one) jessie j - who you are (japan edition)

up another place this week for j-j-j-jessie! with 'domino' sneaking in at number one on the top 40 singles chart, lots more people are looking up her album artwork...even if it's the 'japan edition'.

4. (new entry) chris brown - strip (ft. kevin "k-mac" mccall)

new entry for mr. brown this week, his latest single (from the next album 'fortune') is steadily gaining more and more popularity. i'm hoping his next release really brings it with the album's cover, as 'f.a.m.e.'s was on fire!

5. (down three) one direction - gotta be you

and thuuuur we go for this week :)
