I’m in! I’m so bloody in! It’s been years since there was a concert that I looked forward to, the last was the Black Eyed Peas some 4 years ago. Pitbull is one of the current hottest musicians on the planet and JS Concert, the promoters made a really intelligent choice in...
David Guetta featuring Usher – Without You (Song Review)
posted by Gallivanter
Some parts reminds me of U2′s With or Without You, and some parts sounds like a joke especially when David Guetta drops a beat which I find extremely difficult to not take it seriously. While Usher delivers a vocally cool rendition, I think David Guetta’s kind of missed the mark on...
Raghav – Fire (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
This is an awesome track of a dance tune given a feel of R&B hip hop, similar in the veins of the Black Eyed Peas’ recent efforts. Raghav is a musician from India and I have one of his older track back in the late 90′s but I think this tune’s on another...

David Guetta feat Chris Willis & Fergie – Gettin’ Over You (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
The intro is similar to The Black Eyed Peas’ “I Got a Feeling”, it could possibly be that David Guetta samples the tune and then some. Fergie lends her voice to this dance number, while Chris Willis’ singing is similar to that of Will.I.Am. Overall, a good dance number,...
Black Eyed Peas – The Beginning (Mp3 Download) Album Review
posted by Gallivanter
There are 15 new songs on the Black Eyed Peas’ new album, “The Beginning”, once again a progression from hip hop to a more dance theme. I’m not sure that I’m liking it that much, but there are 3 highlights from the album that samples other tracks that will appeal...
Black Eyed Peas – Do It Like This (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Another new track from the Black Eyed Peas off their upcoming album. It’s not one of their best, but I guess, just like most of their songs, it can grow on you. Personally, I think it could’ve been better had they put more effort on it, as currently it sounds a little to nonchalant...
Will.I.Am featuring Fergie – Losin’ It (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Although you can also link this back to the Black Eyed Peas since both are the integral part of the band, and had their own fair share of individual fame. It samples Hall & Oates’ “Out of Touch” but the beat reminds me too much of Timbaland’s repertoire. It’s...
Black Eyed Peas – The Time (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
I’m not too sure about the history of this song, whether it’s a demo or their next single. It samples the famous Bill Medley and Jennifer Warner track, called “The Time of My Life”, the soundtrack to the movie Dirty Dancing back in the 80s. However, they seem to be...
The Black Eyed Peas – Grapes (Song Review)
posted by Gallivanter
Another release from The Black Eyed Peas, who roped in David Guetta for the production of this track, but I find it a little messy without any clear direction. While there’s some Arabic elements induced in the song and a catchy beat, overall, it’s a rather directionless release by...

To sum it up, it has been an eventful rollercoaster year, with a lot of ups in the end that made the earlier downs a worthwhile ride at the end. Here’s a look back of 2009 through my favorite collection of posts. It started out with my blog interview with the Malay Mail which was...
