Kelly Clarkson dropped a new single on her official website today, a straightforward pop anthem called “What Doesn’t Kill You (Stronger).”

The tune, which may or may not be the title track of Clarkson’s upcoming October 24 album—iTunes simply calls the song “Stronger,” but her website uses the longer title—falls right into the American Idol‘s belty pop/rock wheelhouse, and it should please fans who love that sound.

Personally, I’m more partial to the understated, sassy-but-soulful vibes on current lead single “Mr. Know It All,” but there’s chatter around the EW Music Dept. that Clarkson might have been better off releasing “What Doesn’t Kill You” as the first track from Stronger.

Take a listen below and decide for yourself. READ FULL STORY »

Mariah Carey sings five octaves in just over a minute: Listen here!

It’s no secret that Mariah Carey has range, but that’s just become even more apparent: A clever video has surfaced on YouTube that splices together Mimi singing through what the video claims are five octaves, two notes, and two semitones.

“That’s over 65 keys!!!!” the video says at the end. You knew she could do it, but actually hearing her go from low to high in a cascade — with each note flashing on the screen as it happens, each about one second apart — is pretty stunning.

Through the video, you can identify a variety of Mariah’s songs in the background — everything from her soaring rendition of “O Holy Night” to “Forever” — although a huge portion of it is pulled from her two notable Christmas albums. (Go figure.)

If you don’t already appreciate the range Mariah has, you will after the jump:

Nearly a year after Kanye West debuted the lyrics to his spiteful single-parent jam “Mama’s Boyfriend” at Facebook’s headquarters last July, the track–which didn’t make the cut for 2010′s acclaimed My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy–leaked online last night.

“It took me 32 years of my life to write it,” Kanye said of the soulful College Dropout-esque track last year. “It means a lot to me.” It’s obviously one that hits close to home for West, who was mostly raised by his mother after his parents divorced.

Written from the perspective of a child, he attacks any guy trying to be his mom’s new man on “Boyfriend.” Even back then, Kanye knew what strategies grown men would use to get her.

It’s almost anti-climactic, really.

After months of intense pre-release buildup and more hype than Donald Trump threatening a presidential bid, Lady Gaga’s hotly anticipated album Born This Way has leaked.

It was set to drop Monday, but when the singer previewed the entire album for UK subscribers of the British newspaper Metro, even she must have known that it was going to go viral faster than Ebola. Get our first impression after the break: READ FULL STORY »

American Idol‘s hottest judge won’t let us catch our collective breath. After Jennifer Lopez told her fans to get “On the Floor” with her first single and then teamed up with Lil Wayne for another love-crazy banger, she’s yet to slow things down.

Last night “Hynotico,” one of two tracks on her Love? album written by Lady Gaga, found its way onto the Internet. Just like her two prior singles, it’s an upbeat one. But instead of confessing her feelings to a special guy, the pop star is more than happy just teasing them. Check it out after the jump.

Jennifer Lopez caught up in her love's spell on new single 'I'm Into You'

JLO-IDOL

This morning, radio host Ryan Seacrest provided a 30-second snippet of Jennifer Lopez’s second Love? single “I’m Into You.”

And just as fast as the bit played, the full version leaked online. The island-flavored, Lil Wayne-assisted cut finds her caught under her man’s spell. Apparently, she’s a sucker for nice eyes.

“When I look into your eyes it’s over,” she sings. “You’ve got me hooked with your love controller/ I’m tripping and I could not get over/ I feel lucky like a four leaf clover.” Cute stuff, right?

Britney Spears' 'Femme Fatale': A listening guide to all the leaked tracks and snippets!

femme-fatale

Another day, another leak from Britney’s much-anticipated album Femme Fatale! Today, we’re getting the full versions of “(Drop Dead) Gorgeous” and “Inside Out,” plus a snippet (the Britney leaking team just loves a snippet!) of “Gasoline.” You can hear those three all over on Idolator. We here at EW are waiting for the full, mastered versions of everything before we weigh in too much, but I can say this: This album is already rocking my world, based on what we’ve heard. Our official review is forthcoming, of course, and will be timed to release. The interesting thing is that so many of the Femme Fatale tracks have leaked — in fact, some version of each track from the regular release is somewhere out there on the internet. So in the mean time while we wait for the album to drop on March 29 and for a little Friday fun, let’s recap what we’ve heard exactly and where you can listen, based on the official track listing:
