Though there's no denying the emotional power of "Rolling In The Deep" and "Someone Like You" , but Adele's "Rumour Has It" has always been one of our favorite tunes on 21 . And now the bluesy-pop send-off song (which has already been covered on Glee ) will be the Grammy winner 's next single. The song's producer and co-writer Ryan Tedder revealed the news to Billboard on the Grammy red carpet, saying, "I'm very excited about it." Now that the fourth single is all [...]

Rock band SafetySuit experiments with their sound on latest record, These Times.
Joe writes: For me the litmus test of a TV-related hit single is "Would it have been a hit for an unknown artist who wasn't guaranteed TV exposure?". The answer is emphatically "yes" in the case of my top five Simon Cowell-related releases: 5. Earthquakes - Labrinth feat. Tinie Tempah Surely the coolest track Simon Cowell has ever touched, despite his slightly cringeworthy namecheck. The moment where a choir of monks sings the chorus a cappella is truly inspired.

As annoyingly omnipresent as the pop-flavored, chart-dominating singles stripped from B.o.B 's debut The Adventures of Bobby Ray became, the Decatur-born emcee's insta-successful transitioning from mixtape-to-mainstream stardom was such a root-worthy event, hating on dude's Top 40 reign never once seemed like an option. That's what happens when everything he spits (be it on an official single, album track, or remix verse) not only feels so insanely catchy and impressively nimble on even the millionth listen, but is lifted to whole new plateaus of feel-good infectiousness due to the fact that [...]

Though Gym Class Heroes have canceled the remaining dates on their Fall tour due to frontman Travie McCoy's "illness" (why so vague, guys?), McCoy was still able to perform the group's single "Stereo Hearts" on Saturday Night Live with Maroon 5 . Looks like Travie's claim that he's one tough cookie in new song "The Fighter" is pretty accurate. The uplifting tune, off The Papercut Chronicles II , features OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder on the hook as well as the production. Listen below. Gym Class Heroes feat. Ryan [...]

Gavin DeGraw on his new album: "I really feel that it's the best piece of art that I've ever been affiliated with."

The 2011 Do Something Awards were held at the Hollywood Palladium on Sunday, while the event was broadcast on VH1 last night. The Jane Lynch-hosted shindig celebrated young people who dedicate themselves to worthy causes, and the evening saw a black-clad Justin Bieber pick up honors for Do Something Music Artist.

Head below to watch performances at the event by winner Lovato, OneRepublic [...]

Late night party pop delinquents Cobra Starship are celebrating like there's no tomorrow in their new song "#1Nite (One Night)", off their August 30 release Night Shades . Ryan Tedder adds his vocals to the rousing club tune — apparently the singer-songwriter-producer got a taste of the night life while working with other fete-throwers Far East Movement . Check out the "#1Nite" lyrics video below. Cobra Starship - "#1Nite (One Night)" (Lyrics Video) "Tomorrow [...]

Ryan Tedder and Beverly McClellan It's pretty safe to say The Voice's Beverly McClellan has been living the good life lately. Before it all ended, she got the perform on the finale results show stage one last time with one of pop music's hottest singer/songwriters. Bev performed a duet with OneRepublic frontman and top pop songwriter Ryan Tedder . The two had tons of fun on stage performing to the OneRepublic song Good Life . Was this a fun duet? Yes. Was it good? No. Team [...]

Nikka Costa is back and still under-appreciated. Her EP is out on iTunes and we are downloading it right now. Filed under: Beats , Clip , Yankee Panky Tagged: adam lambert , american idol , arts , itunes , los angeles , nikka costa , Ryan Tedder , television

In the words on Beyoncé herself, "Somebody's gonna get firrred!" *Looks Sony's way* We're sure a great deal of you have listened to the leak of 4 . With the general opinions either describing the album as Beyoncé's best work to date or calling it 20112s equivalent to Christina Aguilera's Bionic , either way, the album's leak is a whole flippan' three weeks ahead of the official release. Anyway, the leak means listeners finally heard the Diane Warren -penned and Ryan Tedder -produced "I Was Here." Just last week Warren praised the song [...]

Nikka Costa is one of the artists that has never gotten what she deserved. Her blend of soul and pop is incomparable and she is one of the only voices out there giving soul props in this day and age. At any rate, we weren't too happy with her German-only single "Ching Ching Ching," but this new song "Head First" is exactly what the doctors ordered. We are glad that this sound still carries on on her album Pro*Whoa! Filed under: Audio GaGa , [...]

It's about three weeks until the release of Beyoncé's 4 along with her Glastonbury headlining gig. After a not so great start with "Run The World (Girls)," the album is looking up. Famous songwriter, Diane Warren , has apparently penned the "career song" for Beyoncé. The humble Warren surprisingly boasts about the track entitled "I Was Here," calling it "the best thing I've ever written." The song's producer was recently revealed as Ryan Tedder . "Halo" was a standout on the I Am... album so we're expecting something greater than mediocre. [...]

Today, Joe Jonas unleashed his debut solo single upon the world: "See No More." So, how is it? It's good! It's very, very good. Produced by Brian Kennedy and co-penned by Chris Brown , "See No More" is a modern, aching Ryan Tedder -esque power-pop/R&B ballad: "All I keep seeing is your picture / But I don't want to see no more," Jonas cries above the slow stomping beat. The song is very much born of the typical boy band-gone-solo tradition a la Nick Lachey or Nick [...]
