It had gone very quite from P!nk on the music front. After her smash hit 'Just Like Fire' for the Alice Through The Looking Glass soundtrack, nobody knew what had happened to the rock chick we all love.
Suddenly photos started to appear online of a more rounded P!nk and that's when it suddenly made sense, she is expecting baby number 2!!! P!nk (Alecia Moore) gave birth to a baby boy named Jameson Moon Hart.
We wish P!nk and her husband Carey Hart all the best and we are looking forward to seeing if a new song or even album will be released in 2017.
If like us you have eaten too much over Christmas, you may or may not have heard about another legend that we have lost in 2016. Whether you are a 'Last Christmas', 'Faith' or 'Freedom' fan, the passing of George Michael on Christmas Day was a shock for everyone.
There were plans for a new album and documentary in 2017 for the star who first hit the music charts in Wham and nobody is sure what will come of those projects.
All we can say is RIP and thank you for the fantastic music George!
He is the youngest son of one of the most well know couples in the UK but 11 year old Cruz Beckham is ready to show that he has what it takes to have a successful career in the music industry. Cruz has recently signed with Scooter Braun (Justin Bieber's manager) and his first single 'If Everyday Was Christmas' is a song where all proceeds will be donated to charity. The release is perfectly timed as there are only a couple of weeks till Christmas and releasing the song later than usual releases, the song is already impacting the iTunes UK Chart in the top 15.
This is not the first time Cruz has showcased his vocals. He has release two YouTube videos of him performing the songs 'Hopeful' and 'The Cup Song'.
Ever since his journey on Team Jessie J on The Voice UK, Vince Kidd has shown the world just how creative he is whether it be as a singer or even as a songwriter.
Vince is back with his song 'Almost Angels' and it will not disappoint!
Vince is known for his crazy styles and setting trends as well as having Vanessa White (The Saturdays) as a close friend.
We think 2017 could quite possibly be his year and fingers crossed he releases a full album soon!
Mans Zelmerlöw is know throughout Europe after winning the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 with his song 'Heroes'. After releasing his debut album 'Perfectly Damaged', he was asked to present the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 where he also performed some of his songs.
Now Mans is back with his new album 'Chameleon' which features the songs 'Fire in The Rain' (which he performed at the Eurovision Song Contest) as well as the song 'Hanging on to Nothing' and his new single 'Glorious'.
Something that will be very interesting about this release is whether there are still many fans around Europe who will want to buy the album.
Over the years we have seen many band members leave their groups to work on a solo career. Such artists as Robbie Williams, Justin Timberlake, Cheryl or Nicole Scherzinger have taken this step and they are still very much in the public eye and still enjoying success worldwide.
Two artists who have done the same are Billy and George Shelley:
Billy - Not Over You
Billy (AKA Bill Kaulitz) is still a member of Tokio Hotel but as the group have had some time off, Billy is currently promoting his solo project where he is mixing is love for fashion, with his music.
He has recently released the video for his song 'I'm Not Over You' which is available now!
George Shelley - Soldier
We have already mentioned George Shelley after he released his song '360' last week and this weeks song is 'Soldier'.
This time George is singing his song whilst playing the guitar with old photos being projected behind him and with lyrics such as, I will take a bullet for you, the song showcases his more sensitive side.
When it was first announced that Noah Cyrus was going to release music, the first question on everyone's mind was if she would copy her sister's style of music.
After taking a listen to Noah's song 'Make Me Cry' featuring British hit maker Labrinth, we were very surprised. Noah showcases stunning vocals on this track but is very different to what her sister Miley Cyrus would release.
Noah is going to be a huge hit worldwide and after this song, we can't wait for the album!
We recently mentioned that George Shelley will be releasing new songs every Sunday at 10am (UK time) and the first one to be released was a song called '360'. Shelley says the song is about his time in school where he was bullied and the song is about having 360 vision for those people who are nice to your face and talk about you behind your back.
The song is now available to download on iTunes and stream on Spotify.
Could this be the start of an international solo career for George Shelley?
What a year 2016 has been for Craig David. His album 'Following My Intuition' went straight into the UK chart at number 1 and the first single from the album 'When The Bassline Drops' entered at number 10.
As a result of his success, Craig was asked to release the official charity single for Children In Need. The song 'All We Needed' is taken from his album and all sales of the song will go towards raising money for the charity.
New music and videos from George Shelley is the news that his fans have been waiting for and today is the day where he made the announcement. At 10am UK time, George released a video explaining that over the next 6 weeks, he will release a video of one of his new songs. This video will be released at 10am every Sunday starting on the 20th November.
Ever since George left Union J and started his new job as breakfast radio presenter on Capital Breakfast, fans have been worried that they will never see their favourite on stage ever again.
We can tell all fans not to worry as George will be performing at London Under The Bridge on Sunday 18th December and tickets will go on sale tomorrow morning!
Louisa Johnson (winner of The X Factor UK 2015) is back with her official debut single! After the success of Clean Bandit's 'Tears' which Johnson featured on, now its time for the world to hear 'So Good'. The track has a youthful feel to it which represents Johnson more than her X Factor winner's single 'Forever Young' and is the perfect song to prepare her fans for whats to come and get ready for that first album.
With promo for that single including the first live performance of the single on The X Factor results show, as well as TV and radio interviews, Friday will be interesting to see where the track will chart.
If you are still missing One Direction and need a boy band to fill the gap they have left, we have the solution for you.
Their name is After Romeo and they have just released their new song 'Pull Over' featuring the 'Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae) rapper Silentó. The song has a feel good vibe about it and is going to be a huge hit worldwide.
Both artists have been around for a few years now and we feel this track will be the song to push them both to the top of most music charts.
They have toured the world, released two top 10 albums and now The Vamps have just announced that they are releasing their new single 'All Night' this Friday!
Ever since the news broke, social media has gone into meltdown and everyone is excited about the cheeky chaps being back with new music.
Don't forget to check out their latest album 'Wake Up'.
It's been a while but Solange Knowles has finally released her new album 'A Seat at the Table' and it is already making a huge impact on iTunes charts worldwide. The singer who has been in the shadow of her sister (Beyonce) has stepped up her game and is now ready to show the world that there is a new Ms Knowles in town and she means business.
The first song from the album to be made available was the song 'Cranes in the Sky' and Solange says she had written the song 8 years ago and felt it was the right time to release it.
Other stand out tracks from the album include 'Don't Touch my Hair feat. Sampha', 'Mad feat. Lil Wayne' and 'Where Do We Go' as well as 'Interlude: I Got So Much Magic, You Can Have It feat. Kelly Rowland'.
Fingers crossed Solange will do a worldwide tour so everybody can hear her amazing songs live!
With the amount of new fantastic songs being released week after week, it is very hard to keep up with what to buy next. If you can't decided what song to buy next, here are a few of our favourites this week.
1. Niall Horan - This Town
When One Direction announced they were taking a break, one of the first questions on everyone's lips was which member will release a solo single first? Well the answer to that is Niall Horan. The Irish hottie (as most of his fans call him), released his debut solo single 'This Town' without any warning. To everyone's surprise, this acoustic/guitar driven track grabs you emotionally from start to finish.
With the track shooting up iTunes charts worldwide, this is a great start to what will be a very successful future!
2. DNCE - Body Moves
If someone says 'Cake By The Ocean' or 'Toothbrush', you know they are talking about DNCE's fantastic songs. The group recently announced that they will be releasing their album 'DNCE' November and to make this news even more exciting, the group have just released their new track 'Body Moves' which is another hit for a group that is taking over the world one radio after another!
3. GRL - Kiss Myself
G.R.L. have experienced many ups and downs in their career and although they took a break, changed the line-up, the ladies are ready to fight for their rightful place in the music industry. They recently made their comeback in Australia at Slimefest.
To make sure all their loyal fans worldwide can be involved, they released their new track 'Kiss Myself'. The uptempo dance track will be a sure hit in the clubs and get people off their seats and shaking their booty!
4. Jake Quickenden feat. Bailey McConnell - Get Away With Me
Jake Quickenden is best know for his silky smooth vocals (and hot body) and now he is back this time with the help of Bailey McConnell (Britain's Got Talent) with his new song 'Get Away With Me'. Anyone who is a fan of Jake will be excited for this song as it is different to other tracks he has released in the past, but his trademark vocals are still very present!
Union J fans have been waiting patiently for the new Union J album but there is new updates from the lads. It was recently announced that the UK Tour had been pushed back to February (which made a few fans worried) but they have now announced that they have a few dates in mainland Europe.
The band will be gigging in The Netherlands, France and Switzerland which will help gain more fans in new music markets to hopefully boost sales and maybe a worldwide tour (fingers crossed).
Now the question is, when will a new single be released?
Till then, we will keep playing their first two albums!
Kevin Simm, the winner of The Voice UK, released his track 'Wildfire' on 16th September and now there is a video for the song.
The song touches on a partner sleeping with someone else and the rumours are spreading like wildfire.
The song is the first single from his new album 'Recover' which will be released on the 28th October.
German rock and roll band The Baseballs are best know for taking well know songs and adding a classic rock and roll twist to them. Their new album 'Hit Me Baby...' is the new album and as you may be able to guess, the covered Britney's song of the same name. Other songs they used on this album include Sugababes 'Overload', The Spice Girls 'Wannabe' and All Saint's 'Never Ever' just to name a few.
The album has already entered the German chart at number 9 but we feel this could be the album to break many new music markets.
2. Jahméne - Unfathomable Phantasmagoria
We have been very excited about this album and feel that Jahméne is very underrated considering his strong vocals! His new album 'Unfathomable Phantasmagoria' is a very pleasant surprise as many people expected an album just full of slow ballads, we can tell you there is more to expect.
Stand out tracks include 'Love', 'Catch The Rhythm', 'Get It Right' as well as the fantastic single 'Down For Love', 'Is This The Time?' and 'I Wish'.
3. Shawn Mendes - Illuminate
He is one of the biggest worldwide success stories right now and as well as topping the charts worldwide, his new album 'Illuminate' is just another amazing album which showcases not only Shawn's amazing vocals but also his songwriting skills.
The song 'Treat You Better' is still one of the most popular song on radio and we can see him taking Justin Bieber's pop crown away for him in the next couple of years!
As everyone has probably heard by now, The Voice UK will move from the BBC to ITV in 2017 as well as The Voice Kids UK which will also start next year.
Two artists who have experienced The Voice are currently making their voices heard with both artists having new singles now available.
Leah McFall - Wolf Den
Leah McFall was coached by Will.i.Am and came runner up on the second series but has been away for 2 years. She is now ready to take her rightful place on the charts with her second single 'Wolf Den' she has release independently. Ever since the announcement of the single's release, social media has gone into melt down and she is flying up the iTunes UK chart.
For those who don't know about Leah's unique voice, should also check out her debut single 'Home' which featured Will.i.Am as well as her audition on The Voice where she covered Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive.
Kevin Simm - Wildfire
Kevin Simm is the winner of last years The Voice UK and many fans have been very excited to hear his new music as well as to hear news about the long awaited album. This week Kevin released his new single 'Wildfire' which has a more guitar/acoustic/country feel about it.
The single is taken from his upcoming album 'Recover' which is due to be released on the 28th October.
This music comes after his first song, post The Voice, called 'All You Good Friends' entered the UK chart at number 24.
and who can forget his cover of Sia's 'Chandelier' for his blind audition.
If you have been watching Celebrity Big Brother in the UK right now then you would have seen Aubrey O'Day. The American singer/actress/fashion designer is best known as being 1/5 of Danity Kane but did you know she has also released solo music?
O'Day released her first solo single 'Automatic' back in 2011. The song is an upbeat pop/dance track.
A year later, the release of her second track 'Wrecking Ball' was released.
In 2013 Aubrey released her first EP which included 9 tracks. The EP is called 'Between Two Evils'.
Aubrey's music is available on iTunes, Amazon and many streaming platforms including Spotify. As she is doing a good job in the Big Brother house, we are running a campaign to see if we can get Aubrey into the UK charts.
All this week, we want everyone to download and stream any track from Aubrey.
It is always great to discover new music especially from artists from other countries.
Kevin Sundl - Die Zeit bleibt stehn
Austrian artist Kevin Sundl recently announced that a new single is on its way! The song 'Die Zeit bleibt stehn' (Time Stands Still) will be released on the 2nd September and will be promoted in Austria with a few live performances.
Sundl has been busy not only touring but also recording new songs in the studio. He also has found the time to fly to Germany and of course doing a photoshoot for that all important photo for the single cover.
Lots more to be expected from Kevin and there is also the question of whether the English version of his last single 'Magnetisiert' (Magnetised) will ever have a release date.
Alex Row - Do What You Want
Ever since Spanish boy band Clover went their separate ways, it was clear that Alex Row would be the one to watch in regards to the solo projects of each member of the group. Alex has had an original track called 'Loco de Amor' (Crazy Love) as well as some amazing cover videos including Adele's 'Hello' and Justin Bieber's 'Love Yourself' but now it is time for an original English song!
'Do What You Want' is an upbeat dance/pop track which will have you dancing from the start of the song to the end and thanks to Doble Music, the track is now available to download from iTunes and stream on Spotify.
We have said from the very beginning that that Alex will be successful worldwide and we hope there will be an album soon and it would be great to see him represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest!
She is one fifth of British girl band The Saturdays and now Mollie King has officially started her solo career releasing her debut solo single 'Back To You'.
It was back in October 2015 when King confirmed that she had signed a record deal with Island Records and ever since that day, fans have been waiting patiently for the first signs of music. The song 'Back To You' is a song which will help Mollie King take a step away from The Saturdays with a slightly new sound of pop.
It is rumoured that an album will be released in 2016 but the main thing is to watch music charts and see how the lead single performs.
'Back To You' is now available on all download and streaming stores.
Before the end of 2016, there are some fantastic albums still to be released! Here are just a few that you can pre-order on iTunes right now!

With her second album coming in 2017 and another UK tour being announced all we can think of is Mrs Bailey and of course, will her favourite football team Leicester City win the premier league again?
When anyone thinks of Stooshe, the first song title to pop into your head is most likely going to be 'Black Heart'. That was the song that really showcased to the world just how fantastic Stooshe really are and of course, what great vocals all three ladies have.
Since then everyone has been asking what has happened to Stooshe? Well we can now tell you that the talented trio have a new single called 'Let It Go'. The track is a more upbeat dance/pop track which is very different to 'Black Heart' but is defiantly a track for the summer!

We think the guy who used to work and sing in Asda, is ready to take over the charts once again!
If you can't get enough of Jahméne's stunning vocals, be sure to get a copy of his song 'Down for Love'.
It's not only Jahméne who is an ex The X Factor UK contestant who has released a new song this week. Cher Lloyd who was part of team Cheryl and can name Will.I.Am as one of her fans has just released her song 'Activated'.
