Rated: Video roundup - Justin still smooth, Rihanna still naked and Charlie XCX is a white M.I.A.

I've been out of action for a while. Sometimes life gets in the way of things you actually enjoy and you forget how much you enjoy them. Now I have decided to stop being a twat and write again. However, 3+ weeks out of the game are probably going to mean my writing is a little sloppy shite for a while, forgive me. As a little gift to stop you all hating me for disappearing because I know how much your lives depend on me, here are 3 of the biggest music videos emerging at the moment:

Justin Timberlake ft. Jay Z - Suit & Tie
Ok so when I reviewed this song a few weeks back I gave it 5/5. Then I changed this to 3/5 because I got bored of it and thought I was just overexcited that trouser snake was still alive and kicking. Now I've crept back to a 4/5 just because it's so smooth, so different to everything else around right now, and now because the video's out and Justin looks damn fine in it. All valid reasons to increase one's rating. It's my blog anyway, I can do what I want with Justin Timberlake. He's on my turf now. Check out the video below. Like I said, it's smoother than a Gillette shave with a katana. 

Rihanna ft Mikky Ekko - Stay
This song made it onto my top 25 songs of 2012 back in December. It's a gorgeous ballad and is one of the most convincing and vulnerable sounding performances of Rihanna's career. I wasn't blown away by the 'Diamonds' video and I'm not blown anywhere by the 'Stay' video, but it's still nice to have another video from the Bajan queen of filth. She's not quite dirty here, probably because she's cleaned off in the bath, but you do see some side boob and a bum. That girl has so much money in the bank and she still can't afford any clothes... hmmmm, might want to ask Jay Z for a pay rise love.


Charlie XCX - You (Ha Ha Ha)
This song samples Gold Panda's 'You'. With its wacky techno sitar production (kind of sounds like it's spliced with Dolphins having a rave) this debut from Charlie XCX is instantly infectious. Imagine, a couple of cocktails, 3 jaeger bombs, then this full blast on a packed dance floor. No one can say that wouldn't be amazing. A decent debut effort. 4/5
