Justin Bieber takes you "All Around the World" in his new music video

The Biebs has given us some pretty memorable videos, who could forget the hyped up "Boyfriend", or the pranked "Beauty and a Beat"? Well, unfortunately, this video is in the forgettable section of his videos, as he films the regular "this is my tour video". We've seen the Black Eyed Peas do it, as well as Voice judge Usher in "More". Maybe they didn't have time, or the budget for the video, but we are always left underwhelmed.

Basically, it shows the biebs performing "All Around the World" live on a couple different stages, while giving you flashes of screaming fans, different parts of the world, and... more screaming fans. Ludacris makes an appearance as well, rapping live, before the performance ends, and Justin whispers "believe" to the cam, and the video ends. It's nice to see the tour, but aren't we going to see that in BELIEVE 3D?

Gentleman (Song Review)

Psy. The creator of the dance craze that ruled the latter half of 2012 (with "Gangnam Style") is back with his new single "Gentleman".

So we at Radio Review Blog don't know exactly what to expect from this song. After all, "Gangnam Style" was a viral hit, aided by the dance that pushed it on our radio and to the top of Billboard (number 2). So any song that Psy released would be a huge risk, as it will either bomb or become a hit. There is really no in between, as one way or another, people will pick it up, or just be tired of the hype behind the Korean rapper.

But all the questions aside, we have to review. And it's not too bad. Nor is amazing. With nothing to really compare it too, we can only listen and try not to think of "Gangnam". It's catchy, EDM influenced. The chorus is similar to what we've heard in "Gangnam"; a repetitive and simple "I'm the mother-father Gentleman" (nice censorship). Is it going to be a hit? We hope so for the rapper's sake, but it is really all up in the air for now.

"Gentleman" will be released digitally April 13

Here's To Never Growing (Song Review)

We've been fans of Avril since her "Sk8r Boi" days, so it's been fun to see how she has changed herself, from bad-girl rocker of Let Go and Under My Skin to the more in-your-face pop of Best Damn Thing. She's never been the good girl (Taylor Swift), the sexed up pop singer (Rihanna) or artsy (Lady GaGa). Rather, she's been in and out, always there, but never trying to be what she's not.

And that's what this song is about; "Here's to Never Growing Up". Catchy, and upbeat, the chorus is a slowed down tribute to being young, or living young, backed with big beats and handclaps, similar to 3OH!3's "Youngblood" or the new We The King's song.

It's not as attention grabbing as "Girlfriend" or "What the Hell", nor as emotional as "Complicated" or "I'm With You". Rather, it stays somewhere in the middle, not brilliant songwriting nor pop genius. So we aren't expecting it to be playing on the radio a lot, just our iPods. It's the song that is catchy enough to hold your attention, but not one that will keep you singing afterwards.

Just Keep Breathing (Song Review)

We the Kings have broken into the top ten on iTunes, with their new single "Just Keep Breathing". Here's our take.

We were a little surprised to see two new songs released yesterday (We the Kings and Selena Gomez), and even more surprised to see the band top the Disney pop star in digital sales. So we investigated, and there may be a good reason. The song's has a great message, and a catchy chorus. However, we aren't all to impressed with the style, it sounds like Imagine Dragons, with the chorus a slowed down version of the "Woah ohs" in fun.'s "Some Nights". It's clear that after failing to get enough sales with their last album., they're keen to switch things up and compete with the popular bands.

But we're left feeling like we did when we heard Maroon 5's "Daylight". A good concept, but mediocre effort.

Our Rating: 3 Out of 5

Come & Get It (Song Review)

The song starts off very (to quote Gomez's own description) tribal. There's a middle eastern vibe that introduces the new Gomez to the world. Then it breaks into big synths and the chorus, which is "if you're ready come and get it... na na na na". Sonically, we compare it to "Your Touch" by Blake Lewis, or Ellie Goulding's "Figure 8", a slow build up to an explosive chorus (without dubstep, thankfully). We give props to Selena, it's a mature sounding song that doesn't trade dance and pop elements for maturity. And it's still catchy as heck.

Of course, it's not a dance/club driven song, like "Hit the Lights" or "Naturally". Instead, it showcases Gomez's vocals, like "A Year Without Rain" and "Love You Like a Love Song". Her vocals are spot on, with a bit of auto-tweaking here and there, but not overly noticable. Plus we gotta love the sassy lyrics; her teasing. We can't wait for the new album!

RRB's Top Ten: Overrated Artists

There's no denying that these ten artists are immensely talented... but we're just a little tired of the critics, the public, and our friends gushing over them like the Niagara Falls. So, we might as well get it off our chest!


10. Taylor Swift
Aw, Taylor. We don't blame you for writing such great songs. We blame everyone else who are fooled by your stunning looks and catchy hooks. "Red" was pretty good, but a 'country' artist, intentionally using dubstep, synths and drum machines to sell records?


9. Adele
We loved you back when you were 19. "Chasing Pavements" was our jam! But then Glee came along, and the rest is history. Everyone loved you. And we got tired of it.


8. Fun.
Ahhhh, Fun. You took the fun out of our lives after we had heard "We Are Young" and "Some Nights" playing... every five minutes on the radio. And TV. And online. Another artist who was helped by Glee. Hooray.


7. Mumford & Sons
We get that your music is "meaningful" and whatnot... but you guys gotta switch it up. The banjos and acoustic guitars start to grind in our ears. Especially after Phillip Phillips' "Home".


6. Rihanna
You became the victim of Chris Brown's abuse, back in... 2007? We don't really remember, but now females will continue to rally around you like you're some sort of survivor of a war. And it gets tiring. Plus, when was the last time you actually wrote a song?


5. Paramore
The rock band everyone likes. But seriously, their biggest hit was a country song.


4. Drake
Thank you "Drizzy". You managed to get a bunch of 12 year-olds to say the N word, as well as the most overused word of 2012. No, we're not going to say it.


3. The Lumineers
Constantly shouting "Ho" and "Hey" should not get you a top 5 hit.


2. Ed Sheeran
Ladies love you because you make "abstract" acoustic ballads. And that's all you do. Acoustic ballads. Plus, you made one of the worst One Direction songs in history.


1. Frank Ocean
Would not have gotten a single shred of notice if it weren't for his letter about his sexuality.

Of course, this is all for fun, we couldn't help but pick apart some of our favorite artists! Which artists do you think are overrated?
