Description
Hip-hop icon Snoop Dogg is one of the world’s original ultimate entertainers. The multi-award winning rapper, producer and actor has recently released his 11th studio album, Doggumentary and this hugely successful musical experimentation of unpredictable collaborations with international artists has emphasised his ability to stay at the forefront of popular culture.
Pulling inspiration from a variety of musical legends such as Michael Jackson, James Brown and The Beatles, electro-rap duo LMFAO have created their own musical style known as ‘party rock’. Their hit single Party Rock Anthem propelled them onto the international stage in 2011, taking the number one spot in ten countries.
Born from the dynamic LA club scene, Far East Movement have turned their unique blend of hip-hop, pop, electro and dance into party anthems. Bridging the gap between underground party records and mainstream hip-hop and pop, they have created their own original sound and lifestyle they call ‘Free Wired’.
British girl group Parade came to the forefront of the UK music scene in April 2011 with their debut single Louder and they have just released their follow up single, Perfume. The five fashionistas epitomise British style and are set to become the next big thing.
