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!

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.

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!

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.
