Music Video Previews: Pink & Tinie Tempah
Pink and Tinie Tempah unveiled yesterday (January 14th) the teasers/trailers for their upcoming music videos - As you all know by now, the American pop rebel has chosen the Max Martin-produced midtempo ballad "F**kin' Perfect" as her next official single - the follow-up to the #1 hit "Raise Your Hands" and the second single from her "Greatest Hits" compilation. The song has peaked thus far #57 on the Hot 100 but that now Pink *finally* plans to properly promote it in the US and with the music video coming out soon, doubt not, "F**kin' Perfect" will rocket to the Top 5. #1 is uncertain, with Britney, Lady GaGa and even Avril Lavigne most likely to fight for that spot in the coming weeks. Anyhow, check out the teaser to the "F**kin' Perfect" music video above. Touching stuff.
As for Tinie Tempah, the London rapper who has recently swept 4 nominations to the Brits Awards 2011, has given fans a 'trailer' to the music video for "Wonderman", the duet with Ellie Goulding that will serve as the rapper's fifth single from his debut album "Disc-Overy". Just two weeks ago Tinie released his fourth single, "Invincible" featuring Kelly Rowland, that obviously 'flopped' (by Tinie's successul singles standards). It was his first single to not chart within the Top 5 in the UK. I just knew it! The song was boring to death. I kinda liked it at the beginning, the Kelly feature sounded insteresting, but just a few plays later I thought = snoozefest. And when I found out it was getting single-treatment, I was "what are you doing Tinie!?". The London foolishly ended his straight Top 5 hits streak. But looks like he wants to make up for his mistake with the next single. He's relasing the song I wanted, "Wonderman" featuring Ellie Goulding. This song screams HIT and the music video (trailer below) looks high-budget and awesome.
Both Pink and Tinie's new videos are set to premiere later in January.
