While visting London, Melanie Fiona chopped it up with the homey Amaru Don about folks spewing that ill hate in those blog comments. And if you ask Melanie Fiona what she thinks about issue, it’s not killing her in the least bit. Corny? Whatever, I’m slightly hungover and hungry! ENJOY!

“We had one phrase that we had from Pharrell and we made it into a whole song,” explains Axwell, with Angello adding that “it’s kind of old skool, chopping up one vocal and turning it into a whole dance track.” The video for One, which you can watch above, is noteworthy for its prominent use of Teenage Engineering’s forthcoming OP-1, which should raise the profile of this synth/sampler/controller – not to mention the anticipation level ahead of its release – considerably.
In this new viral video for Jim Jones feat. Sen City’s “Shootouts” song is mildly seizure-inducing…but at least we get to see flashes (literally, lol) of how Jimmy, Freekey, Cam, Sen, Juelz Santana, and briefly Diddy, live it up. Nice visual reference to Killa’s old arm wound, lol. – MissInfo
