Radiohead is all set to release their new album, The King of Limbs, which will be made available for digital download starting this Saturday. The band made the announcement on their website over the weekend with a message to their fans that said "Thank you for waiting."

This album will be the band's first since their 2007 release "In Rainbows". The band promises something much different from their last album. Though the digital version goes on sale this weekend, the physical package won't be available until May 9. The CD release is going to be much pricer and will contain a CD, to 10" vinyl records and apparently quite a few sheets of artwork.

Lady Gaga's "Born This Way"

2011-02-13T21:39:00.000-08:00

People are calling Lady Gaga's newest single "Born This Way" the new gay anthem and with lyrics like Don't be a drag, just be a queen" and "No matter gay, straight or bi/ Lesbian, transgendered life/ I'm on the right track, baby/ I was born to survive," it's hard to argue with that statement. I've heard a lot of opinions about the new song and I wanted to hear some of your opinions, for those of you who have heard it.

Personally I think it's kind of a step backwards for her. Listening to the song on the radio, you wouldn't know it's Lady Gaga if you hadn't heard about it already. It's missing that signature Lady Gaga "wtf factor". It sounds like it could be anybody. It sounds like The Spice Girls, or Madonna. It sounds like she traded in musical interest in this song and just went with provoking lyrics. And seriously, what's with showing up to the Grammy's in an egg??

Travis Barker Premiers his Collaboration With Lil Wayne

2011-02-12T12:18:00.000-08:00

Once again Weezy is in the headlines, this time making news with one of my favorite artists, Travis Barker. The former Blink-182 drummer invited critics to come listen to his first solo album "Can a Drummer Get Some?". The title track from the album features verses by Rick Ross, Swizz Beats, and of course, Lil Wayne.

Barker said their collaboration really began at last year's Grammy's when he joined Weezy, Eminem, and Drake for their performance of "Forever". He said that they would often just break into beats and the rappers would freestyle and it was just an all around great time. I know I'm looking forward to hearing Barker's whole album and am looking forward to more collaboration between Barker and Wayne.

We all know what Sunday it is, and with the big game set to take place in just a few hours we have to devote a little discussion to the halftime show.

The Black Eyed Peas haven't published a set-list but they promised a show "packed with energy". They want to keep the show moving with a strong and fun party vibe.
