SNSD to make their comeback on October 4th?

According to an inside music distributor, the girls of SNSD are set to release their new album on October 4th, and they will be making their comeback debut through KBS‘s ‘Music Bank‘ on October 7th.

Other artists planning on releasing new singles around the same time are even expected to postpone their release dates due to this. SNSD is without a doubt one of the toughest Hallyu groups to compete with, as they are well received not only in Korea but in all of Asia and parts of Europe as well. Insiders in the music industry remarked, “This time around, the rival entertainment agencies will have more questions in regards to the girls’ comeback than the fans themselves.”

This album in particular is especially noteworthy; famous producer Teddy Riley responsible for producing tracks such as Michael Jackson‘s “Dangerous” revealed through his Twitter page that he was currently working with SNSD on their new album. Teddy Riley is no stranger to the KPOP scene, as he has worked with Jay Park and RaNia in the past. There is even talk that this SNSD album has enough potential for the girls to make their breakthrough in the States, to follow their success in Asia and in Europe.

However, keep in mind that this is a rumor based on an insider and the date of their comeback has not been officially confirmed. SM Entertainment informed StarToday on the 20th, “We may need to adjust the date, depending on how quickly Soo Young is able to recover.” Soo Young was involved in a severe car accident back on August 29th and fractured a few bones. Because of her current state, she was unable to participate in the SMTOWN LIVE performances in Tokyo or the SNSD concert in Taiwan.

Rihanna Titles New Single 'We Found Love'

Only 10 months after the release of "Loud," Rihanna's follow-up album is quickly coming together. After last week's announcement that her sixth album will be released "this fall," the first single from the disc will reportedly received a title: "We Found Love."

"NP: 'WE FOUND LOVE,'" Rihanna posted on Twitter Monday night (Sept. 19). Soon after she wrote, "We in dis bitch!" after a fan pointed out that "We Found Love" was trending worldwide.

According to Rap-Up, "We Found Love" was produced by Calvin Harris, the Scottish producer/DJ whose single "Bounce" is currently at No. 11 on the Dance Airplay chart. The single is reportedly being released on Oct. 11, although Island Def Jam has yet to confirm the release date.

Last week, Rihanna responded to a Twitter follower's question, "When's the next album due?" with the exclamation "THIS FALL!!!!!" Sources have confirmed that the new release will likely be a proper full-length album; Rihanna has simply described the new disc as "GangstaR" on Twitter.

"Loud's" lead single, "Only Girl (In The World)," hit No. 1 on the Hot 100 and has sold 3.1 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Rihanna's latest hit, "Cheers (Drink To That)," cracked the Hot 100's Top 10 last week, rising to No. 10 in its seventh week of release.

SNSD confirms Korean comeback in September with third official album!

SNSD has confirmed their Korean comeback with their third official album next month!

While taking part in the Hallyu wave over in Japan, the girls have been secretly working on their third album recordings. They’ve been balancing out a proper release date, and finally decided on September.

A representative revealed, “SNSD mentioned that they would be making their comeback this fall, but they’ve recently confirmed September as their comeback month. They’re still in the middle of recording, so they could adjust the date by a week or two.”

Fans will also be excited to hear that it won’t be a mini-album or a digital single, but a full fledged official album, their first in nearly a year and eight months.

Other entertainment labels are currently delaying comebacks and debuts in order to avoid direct competition. One representative said, “All the attention will be on SNSD anyway, so it’s useless to go head-to-head. On top of that, it’s an official album, so it’s likely that they will just sweep the charts.”

Three More New Kelly Clarkson Songs Leak

Following the arrival of Kelly Clarkson's "Let Me Down" last week, more never-before-heard tracks from the winner of "American Idol" season 1 hit the web. The first is called "What Doesn't Kill You", the second is "I Forgive You", and the third is "Dumb + Dumb = U". 


While she's singing her angst out in the previously-leaked "Let Me Down", Kelly sounds off her optimism in the "What Doesn't Kill You". She's belting out empowerment lyrics, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger/ Stand a little taller/ Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone." 


In the "Forgive You", she's calling a truce with someone from her past, "We were just a couple of kids trying to figure out how to live, doing it our way/ No shame, no blame, 'cause the damage is done." In the "Dumb", she's mocking an anonymous ex, "It ain't rocket science / I may not be Einstein, but I know that dumb plus dumb equals you!" 


It's unknown which song will become her lead single. Whichever it is, songwriter Claude Kelly who helped her write new songs for her new album assured fans it will catapult her up the charts again. "They want to make sure that the arena is clean for Kelly Clarkson's return, 'cause when she comes back, she always comes back pretty big," Claude told MTV. 


"They want to make sure when her first single comes out, there's nothing out there that's competing with it. I don't know for sure, but Kelly always does it big, so when it comes out, the fans will be happy and she'll sing her butt off and it'll be good times." 


Kelly will release the new album sometime this fall. She recorded the last song in the album on February 25. The "American Idol" graduate shared back then, "This album was influenced by Prince, Tina Turner, Sheryl Crow, Radiohead and there's a little bit of a Country vibe/influence on a couple of songs."
