DIDDY – DIRTY MONEYLast Train To Paris www.diddydirtymoney.com Dist: Universal Music Canada Diddy -Dirty Money's highly anticipated album "LAST TRAIN TO PARIS" includes the hits "HELLO GOOD MORNING" feat. TI, "LOVING YOU NO MORE feat. Drake, and "COMING HOME" feat. Skylar Grey.

With dark, atmospheric beats and a cinematic back story, the new project represents an entirely new side of the rap impresario. Fans may think they know him, but as he prepares to unleash his latest smash, they are about to experience an entirely new Combs, and an entirely new sound. Diddy-Dirty Money is about to redefine dance music for the new decade. STEREOS Uncontrollable www.wearestereos.com Dist: Universal Music Canada “If this album’s wrong, I don’t want to be right,” declares Stereos vocalist Pat Kordyback about the phenomenal quintet’s sophomore album Uncontrollable. “Everything around this feels perfect.”“With this album, we’ve been writing with more of a club/dance vibe,” Kordyback reveals. “We’ve been exposed to that scene and it’s really interesting. It’s definitely an influence on this album. We’re also writing more for our age, not that we’re trying to alienate anyone. We’re honing and refining but it’s not rash. It still sounds like Stereos but more like how Stereos actually is.” THE DAMNED THINGSIroniclast www.thedamnedthings.com Dist: Universal Music Canada With members of Anthrax (Scott Ian, Rob Caggiano), Every Time I Die (Keith Buckley) and Fall Out Boy (Joe Trohman, Andy Hurley) The Damned Things are undoubtedly a musical force to be reckoned with. While each individual in the band has experienced their own successes, The Damned Things’ debut album, which combines their love of classic rock anthems and powerful melodies with a heavy metal intensity, turns out to be much more than the sum of the separate parts. ATOMIC TOM The Moment www.myspace.com/atomictom Dist: Universal Music Canada In 2006, Atomic Tom began in Brooklyn. By 2009, the band recorded their album, The Moment over a four month period in a tiny apartment, produced by their friend, Ben Romans (The Click Five). The band has caused quite a stir with their viral video displaying the bands creative ability by playing their single ‘Take Me Out’ live on a New York Subway line, using only a small speaker set and a few iPhone Apps. WHITE COWBELL OKLAHOMA Viva Live Locos www.whitecowbell.com Dist: Universal Music Canada White Cowbell Oklahoma has moved from cult live music heroes to acclaimed recording artists. Wildly popular in Canada, the US and Europe, Cowbell is currently taking the world by storm and making a big splash with Viva Live Locos.

BASIC INSTINCT is filled with infectious rhythms, girl anthems, club bangers, and sexy baselines made for riding in your jeep! With the lead single and insanely hot video for “Ride” featuring Ludacris, Ciara has reclaimed her spot as one of sexiest and talented performers in music today. CRYSTAL BOWERSOX Farmer’s Daughter www.crystalbowersox.com Dist: Sony Music Canada Crystal Bowersox, the runner-up on the current season of “American Idol,” marked her place in Idol history by having her own original song, “Holy Toledo” played during an episode of “American Idol”. “Crystal is one of the most naturally gifted and talented singer-songwriters to have ever come out of Idol.” says Simon Fuller, “The breadth of her talent is inspiring.” Her first official single is “Hold On”. R. KELLY Love Letter www.r-kelly.com Dist: Sony Music Canada Since he first appeared on the R&B scene in 1992, the one constant in the Kelly musical equation is his intuitive skills as a songwriter and singer. Like his mentor-heroes Curtis Mayfield, Donny Hathaway and Marvin Gaye, Kelly possesses a sixth sense when it comes to knowing what music fans want— and de- livering it with one of the most distinctive tenors in the business. His new album “Love Letter” is at once a respectful nod to legends such as Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye and a soulful, heartfelt modern classic that could only come from the likes of R.Kelly. The lead single, “When a Woman Loves,” will appeal to a wide audience, drawing on both his R&B roots and his undeniable pop prowess. LEONA LEWISThe Labyrinth Tour Live At The O2 www.leonalewismusic.co.uk Dist: Sony Music Canada Leona Lewis is set to release her first ever live album and DVD. ‘The Labyrinth Tour - Live At The O2’ CD includes ten songs recorded at her sold-out London O2 Arena concert earlier this summer, while the DVD features footage of the whole 90minute concert. The Blu-Ray is an audio visual experience of the concert and is the perfect compliment to any home theatre system! In April of 2010, it was announced on Lewis’s official website that the tour would be called The Labyrinth. Speaking of the choice of title she said “I’m a big David Bowie fan and I loved the movie The Labyrinth growing up, it really has inspired me so much. I feel it kind of represents my life in a surreal way too, trying to find my way through a maze!”
