    First Listen: Rihanna "Diamonds"

    September 24, 2012 /

    In anticipation of Rihanna‘s fall release, you can check out her new single “Diamonds” right now on Tragic Kingdom. The new single kicks off the seventh album from the R&B diva, who has been in out of the news lately regarding her rocky, and often times, confusing love life. If this single indicates anything, it looks like things are back on track for the singer, who’s last few records have been quite dark following the public beat down she suffered from then-boyfriend Chris Brown. Listen to the single below and pick it up on iTunes later this week.

    Adele ‘Falls’ into New Bond Film

    September 17, 2012 /

    It was no surprise that when producers began looking for Bond’s new it-girl to sing the theme for the upcoming film Skyfall, they were drawn to the voice of last couple years. It was confirmed that Adele would perform the theme song for the upcoming Bond movie – the franchise’s 23rd. The song, which was recorded at Abbey Road Studios and is rumored to share the film’s title, is expected to premiere in a few weeks followed by the film’s release on November 9.

    Kelly Clarkson’s Greatest Hits…So Far

    September 12, 2012 /

    With three chart topping singles from her latest album Stronger, a headlining spot on one of the summer’s biggest tours and a recent nomination for Best Female Vocalist by the Country Music Association (yep, that’s right – watch out Carrie), Kelly Clarkson doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. One thing that the latter may indicate, though, is a new direction. And before she digs deeper into her southern roots, it’s time to look back on the pop anthems that put her on top of the game. In a conference yesterday at Sony Records, it was announced that Clarkson would deliver a greatest hits compilation on the label before the…

    Josiah Leming Gets "High"

    September 12, 2012 /

    Tragic Kingdom gave readers and Josiah Leming‘s legion of fans the first listen of his new summer single “High” over the weekend and his fans were on cloud-nine. The upbeat, fresh single made us want to pop the top and take a drive down the PCH. Apparently Leming had the same thing in mind since the music video, to accompany the new track, shows Leming driving around and enjoying Los Angeles with his friends. Check out the clever new video now and grab the single on Bandcamp. And don’t forget to share it with your friends on Twitter using the hashtag #GetHigh!
