U2 - “MLK”
From the DIRT email I get once a day.
Can’t talk publicly? Wake up and smell American commerce and tourism crashing the Cuban party. Da Beard is DEAD.
I just…I can’t.
From their MySpace Page: “One afternoon, the duo auditioned for LA Reid, the impresario helming Island / Def Jam. “He literally called a lawyer and wouldn’t let us leave the office before we signed a contract,” recalls Lewis, chuckling at the memory. But that deal quickly dissolved.”
BK’s Hit Predictor — Leona Lewis - “Bleeding Love” I heard this song for the first time in September, when CD debuted it at our yearly Q4 Music Convention. I wish I could have posted it then, because I knew after one listen that it would be massive. Not only will the song be a worldwide smash, but Leona could make a debut splash that will surely be compared to Whitney’s early days.
Fun Fact: The song was co-written by Ryan Tedder, who wrote Apologize.

From yesterday:
Macworld Guessing GameTomorrow, Steve Jobs will deliver his annual keynote address at the Macworld Convention in San Francisco. Here are a few guesses:
Likely To Be Announced:
-iTunes Music Store (ITMS) offering Movie RENTALS with a sharper price point/limited viewing period — competitive advantage? try putting Netflix on your iPod
-Fairplay Software Deal with Major Movie/TV Studios - the way you can rip a CD on your iPod will now be possible for Movies/TV Shows (finally)
-New Macbooks
-Apple TV Update
UPDATE: Correct on all 4. Except there’s only one new Macbook…The Macbook Air.
The Verdict: 5/10

Earth Shattering If Announced (and QUITE possible):
-The Beatles available on the ITMS
-Beatles iPod Thing-A-Ma-Jig (similar concept to the U2 device, but much more creative/expensive/memorable — I’ve actually heard rumors of an iPod shaped like a Yellow Submarine with the entire catalogue pre-loaded)
Will Not Happen, So Stop Speculating About It:
- Apple Record Label Deal with Jay-Z - iHov Records has ZERO ring to it
-Radiohead catalogue available on iTunes
