48Ytv's Review on Tiwa Savage's 'Love In Yellow' (Score 8/10)
Tiwa Savage's latest release ' Love in yellow' is this year's Valentine must listen to music. It's racy, up beat, club dance and restaurant listen to music. Produced by Spellz, this track defines the versatility of Tiwa's music class. There are a few artistes in Africa is in the public domain that can back a track which should turn heads of music moguls around the world. Tiwa, we need more of these please. Some would opine that 3:11s in duration is too short. I disagree. It's tongue in cheek inviting you for more. (48Ytv Score - 8/10)

Not Sure what's this is all about…Madonna and Miley Cyrus
2014 HIT MUSIC - DJ Spinall ft Burna Boy – Gba Gbe è (Score - 9/10)
This is surely going to be a massive 2014 hit. DJ Spinall's Gba Gbe è featuring Burna Boy is a formular that has worked well. It reminds me of a 9ice track in his hey days. The beat is melodious to the near point of addiction. It is a song you will mime to without prompt. Never mind its sung in Nigeria's native Yoruba dialect. Its Afro Beats at its best. I pray the official video is not ruined with an over elaboration of video effects involving scantily dressed 'run-girls'. Keep it clean and you have a massive hit for years to come. 48Ytv score - 9/10

VIDEO: Praiz - Oshé feat Awilo Longomba (2/10)
Praiz releases his music video for the makossa-inspired single
'Oshé' featuring Awilo Longomba. Hmmmnnnn Praiz, if this were to be your first ever release, you wouldn't be the acclaimed star singer you are today. It's good to spread the wings and try other genres, however Praiz, if truth is to be passed on, Makossa is definitely not your thing. A star you are, a star you will remain if you stick to what you do best. This isn't one of your best. Score - 2/10
Beyonce and Jay Z to perform at 56th annual Grammy Awards...
Beyonce and Jay Z are headed for the Grammy
stage.
Just as Justin Timberlake got a big
performance platform on last year’s Grammys, despite not being eligible for any
statues, it looks like Beyonce will get the boost this year for her December
surprise, "Beyonce."
She and husband, Jay Z, were listed as
performers in a commercial that aired Sunday night for the Jan. 26 Grammys.
They join Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr,
Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Daft Punk, Stevie
Wonder, Lorde, Kendrick Lamar, Metallica, Pink, Katy Perry, Keith Urban and a
slew of other artists who have already been announced as performers on the
awards ceremony.
No word yet on if the pair is performing
together, perhaps on “Drunk On Love,” or separately. Jay Z has nine
nominations, including for best rap album.
The Los Angeles Times reported on Friday
that Beyonce would appear, breaking the news before Sunday night’s commercial.
The same LA Times piece also said that Madonna will join one of the night’s
nominees in a performance, but that has yet to be confirmed by the Grammys.
