Christina Aguilera Your Body Country Club Martini Crew Remix
The song starts great and then pre chorus get insanely stuck in your head (but not in a bad way). The chorus beat was used A LOT in various songs. However, that really doesn't bother me. To be honest I really did not care for Baby E's verse. Overall, it's a really good song. Eve did a fantastic song on it. I give the song 9.3/10.

Hollaphonic Remix
There is definite beat switch up with elements of the original. Definitely using the chorus sample a lot. Again, I don't mind it that much. Love the buildup to the chorus. It does get a touch repetitive and somehow shorter than the original. Overall, I give it a 9.1/10 to me the original is better.
9.1/10
The beat hooks me right off the bat. The tone is amazing. It's like a mix of angelic yet not overpowered by the beat. It goes very well together. The beat switch ups are great and then she goes in for a rap which I was not expected. Definitely not a dull moment in song. Love the high note towards the end and the fact it goes into the breakdown then just cuts off is pretty great. Overall, the song is pretty great, and I give it a 9.5/10. It does get a touch repetitive but overall, it's pretty stellar.
No Dot 9.5/10
Music Review Alesso, CORSAK & Stray Kids - Going Dumb Vs Original
Right when the song the song starts it hooks you in. The tone of the group is very good, and the beat drop is amazing. It's repetitive but not in a bad way. Their voice definitely adds to the song. The song gets stuck in your head but it's not annoying (IMO anyways). The switch up towards the end is much appreciated. Overall, I give the song a 9/10. With the original it's really repetitive lacking good vocals from the song. I will say the original is severally lacking and I give that one a 6.5/10.
Orginial - 6.5/10
Stray Kids Remix 9/10
Honestly the vocals are WAY better than the beat which to frank is messy AF. Her vocals literally elevate the song. LOVE the chorus...It literally gets stuck in your head but not in a bad way. The breakdown is very pleasing on the ears and of chorus Brandy's vocal runs, melodies, and high notes (and lower voice) are out of this world. However, I didn't like Darkchild's voice throughout the song to the point it felt it was a tagged song. Overall, I give the song a solid 7.8/10.

According to
She then asked me if I wanted to hear her new music. As someone who first saw her perform live with Destiny’s Child 23 years ago, a moment’s walk from my family home when the group played at the Notting Hill Carnival in 1999, I can feel the tingling excitement build as we make our way to her home recording studio. With minimal ceremony, she takes her laptop and plugs it in as we all sit on some sofas. Quietly, the superstar hits play on her upcoming album.
Instantly, a wall of sound hits me. Soaring vocals and fierce beats combine and in a split second I’m transported back to the clubs of my youth. I want to get up and start throwing moves. It’s music I love to my core. Music that makes you rise, that turns your mind to cultures and subcultures, to our people past and present, music that will unite so many on the dance floor, music that touches your soul. As ever with Beyoncé, it is all about the intent. I sit back, after the wave, absorbing it all.

Hipgnosis Song Management has acquired the song catalog of Justin Timberlake.
Financial details of the deal weren’t disclosed. Hipgnosis, the Notting Hill, London-based company founded in 2018 by former music manager Merck Mercuriadis, called Timberlake “the iconic American singer, songwriter, record producer and actor who is one of the most influential artists of the last 20 years and named by Billboard as the best performing male solo artist in Top 40/Contemporary Hit Radio history.”
Hipgnosis said Friday that it has bought 100 percent “of all of Justin Timberlake’s copyright, ownership and financial interests of the writer and publisher’s share of public performance income, and the catalog of musical compositions written by Justin Timberlake.” Also included in the sale are “the worldwide administration rights to the compositions, subject to the remaining term of Universal Music’s administration rights, which expire in 2025.”
“I am excited to be partnering with Merck and Hipgnosis — he values artists and their creative work and has always been a strong supporter of songwriters and storytelling,” Timberlake said. “I look forward to entering this next chapter.”
Hipgnosis has been buying music publishing catalogs or stakes in them, which has been an area of much dealmaking in the music space. The firm’s activity has included transactions for a 50 percent stake in Neil Young’s catalog, as well as hits performed by Rihanna and Shakira, among others.
Said Hipgnosis CEO Mercuriadis: “Justin Timberlake is not only one of the most influential artists of the last 20 years, but he’s also one of the greatest songwriters of all time. His hit songs including ‘Cry Me a River,’ ‘Rock Your Body,’ ‘SexyBack,’ ‘My Love,’ ‘What Goes Around…Comes Around,’ ‘Suit & Tie,’ ‘Mirrors’ and ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling’ are amongst the most iconic of the period. Putting this deal together has been a complete labor of love.”
Timberlake’s worldwide music sales are currently in excess of 150 million, including 88 million as a solo artist and 70 million with ‘N Sync, Hipgnosis said. The acquisition was made on behalf of Hipgnosis Songs Capital, a partnership between Hipgnosis Song Management and funds managed by private equity firm Blackstone.
Timberlake is represented by managers Rick Yorn, Josh Dembling at LBI Entertainment and Johnny Wright at Wright Entertainment Group, as well as lawyers David Lande and Mitch Tenzer at Ziffren Brittenham LLP.

“I'm currently writing new music and going to the recording studio. I don't know if it will be an album or a song, but the idea really excites me!”
